I'm far from surprised the new app is shit.
But I'll still be fucking fuming if this is still the case come kick off.
Think it was doing that because the broadcast hadn't actually started (even though it said live). I had the same issue a couple of hours ago thinking there might be some build up but it's fine now.

The game is on channel 50 on skysport in NZ. Commentary is in Māori though
Sky Sport 2 has english commentary
Interesting Riley is in this team - he was world class a year or two ago. Wouldn't have minded him switching back...
@Bones said in Māori All Blacks v Japan XV:
Yeah, much more obvious than the one from Reihana earlier too
Though if we're being consistent with how forward passes are assessed, Riley does actually let the ball go out of his hands backwards, it's momentum that carries it forward.

I can't recall a knock on ever being considered under the forward pass laws.

What I mean is that 'forward' isn't defined in the laws. But in the case of passes, 'forward' means 'forward out of the hands' - so why should it be any different for knock ons?
@antipodean another point in the 'should play 10' column.

Get Kemara on
At 9?
Reihana is pretty yuck, but yeah Lennox has been remarkably sloppy so that's probably not helping

Not leading from the front there Bailyn
Not surprised it's a Hawkes player

He hasn't played for the senior Bay team (yet), still has that whiff of the Canes on him.

That was a bad call. Barnes was always bound.
Looked to me like he joined from offside.
great support and offload though
