Good to see Wrampling get a run at 8, Blues need to be looking forward and it seems Sotutu has a foot on the plane already.
Pleased with that lineup. Would prefer Eklund on the bench. Hopefully Mullan can improve.
I presume Taele is 10 cover.
They are probably holding Perofeta back until after the bye.

Would assume Sullivan would slot in to 10.
Where’s Hoskins? Interesting to see all 3 young loosies appear - Wrampling, Clark and Barnes.
Have been happy with Segners form too. Nothing like some pressure to incentivise you to perform.
@KiwiMurph at some point one must ask why hookers don't come into SR with the ability to throw darts.

same reason backs can't put the pass in front of the player anymore? Amount of moves ruined by the player having to stop and catch a ball.
I reckon players are still as good at throwing ball in, and passing in front of players etc.
I reckon as many missed lineouts are miss timing of jumps/lifters as ball not exactly on mark.
Same as thing that pisses me a lot when I look at passes not out in front, so many moves seem to be called and so many moving parts, an awful lot is timing of receiver as much as passer?
The whole game has got so much about complicated bloody moves etc.

That's an odd missed conversion
Not if you watched Beauden try and kick last week....
Geez Segner, that could easily have been classed as throwing the ball away. Why do that? Just drop it down mate.

It was even odder when the blues were leading 7-0
@Tim said in Waratahs v Blues:
Knock down by an Australian is not even a penalty. Against the Brumbies it's a card.
You can’t penalise Jorgensen. Come on mate.

There was a change in direction that will save him from red

He should see if there's a crusaders fan in the crowd he can borrow a jersey off while he sits in the bin.

Easy YC. Dipping player and second tackler. After seeing what doesn't make the threshold, I see no reason that should be other than typical inconsistency.

Maybe, but hard to justify when it was only ever going to be a shoulder charge?

I guess, what even consists of a red card these days?

That's how it used to be reffed, but not for a few years in Super Rugby.

A flying stiff arm to the head is the minimum apparently.

Which is funny because at least there's arms in the "tackle" there.

Fk me, that’s advantage over surely
