That Sheehan clean out on Lynagh should have been looked at. Defs a card.

Talksport commentators unanimously felt it was a RC and he’ll be cited

Lol Curry thinks Beirne can't handle White by himself

Sheehan arguing they weren't being fluffybunnies

pooler fan

Ryan with an awful tackle technique there to get himself injured.

That's what you get for trying to cannonball tackle

Yeah, deserved what he got there, trying to drop to target the knee and gets rightly fucked off. Good.

sparky

Not able to watch the game. But just caught the score. 😀

C'mon Aussie.

Kirwan

Well, that's something i've not seen in a while

pooler fan

If Skelton can stay on now with the lions having 2 lightweight locks it could be game over.

Canes4life

Play suspended due to lightning strikes. That might help Skelton play longer.

Bones

Yeah this is a bit fucked!

@Canes4life was just gonna say same thing
Have’nt seen a game suspended since someone forgot to pay the power bill at the Palmerston North Showgrounds in FPC championship final

NTA

Just had thunder overhead at my place.

Bones

An Irish player changing his wet boots for dry ones. I've seen it all now.

Dan54

Think I will just knock it on head. Half an hour and then play? Must admit kind of lucky it a dead rubber.

I'm about 20km NW of the stadium so it's coming this way.

STRAYA!

Cripes! Loving Nic White tonight after hating the little fluffybunny for so long.

Kirwan

It's a nice old fashioned style game, very physical and a bit of biff

Victor Meldrew

Lightning stops play?

Standards are slipping. Wimps

NTA

Recently they had a weather-affected game in the USA vs England I believe?

I remember years ago Matt Burke lining up a shot at Loftus for Tahs v Bulls and the thunder and lighting hit just as he got back to his mark.

African Monkey

Funnily enough this happened at the same ground earlier in the year in the NRL between the Dogs and Rabbits. It changed the game that night.

Bones

On their phones at halftime, hilarious.

In MY day we didn't start until everyone got struck by lighting at least twice on the way to the ground and once before warmups!

Warm-up? You fucking new age nonsense hipsters.

Beer, you peasant.

Made with peach and apricot no doubt. Maybe the tiny fucking umbrella will protect you from the rain.

Curry has been involved in too much of the pushing/shoving.

BTW, Kiwi Richard Kelly is the TMO that has ignored the Sheehan "clean out".

Bones

Did the game start on time and this is Australia's way of righting that wrong?

It also happened last week in the Aust-Wales women's test in Brisbane where they left the field.

Another reason to build indoor stadiums......

MajorStokes

Can’t see how this can really restart with intensity ….

JOC new nice guy persona on display in an interview. Won me over, comes across so well.

Nick White playing the game of his life so far.

It was supposed to have a roof as part of the rebuild plans, but the cost of the SFS rebuild was already unpopular

MiketheSnow

First team to score wins

Fine wine or milk?

Start you bastards

NTA

HOLD THE FUCKING BALL

Genge on. Coach Farrell has seen enough at scrum time

Bones

Tupou kicks off with the most Tupou Tupouing ever

NTA

The big issue for us: Nonggor is the reserve THP

I spoke too soon, chef's kiss getting penalised in the resulting scrum.

Genge angling like Porter
