Looked like an AB hand knocking that out of Fofana's hand on the ground.

reac posted:Pretty sure Aaron Smith shoved Lacy out of the way at that last scrum near the line to avoid a reverse repeat incident. First thought was "oh for gently caress's sake, we'll never hear the end of this." On replay, second thought is "there were shitloads of French defenders. Lacey's poo poo positioning directly led to a try? gently caress the gently caress off, what were the rest of those blue-jerseyed cunts doing?"

Putting my one-eyed All Blacks supporter hat on, I have to say I thought the Frenchman was milking it a bit. He just kept pushing straight at Lacy, making no attempt to get round him. But I would say that.

Doesn't matter, he directly impeded the player closest to the ball carrier, and with the best chance of making the tackle. Should be a reset scrum to maintain the fairness of the competition. Though interestingly, there are no laws governing the ref impeding a tackler, only the ball, or ball carrier.

Yeah he did, but what are you going to do? Push the ref out the way in an aggressive manner? That could go really wrong and the players are ingrained from when you first put on boots to never touch a ref or you'll be banned for life.

The thing with Lacey is that if you don't go down like Ronaldo at a World Cup, he'll never call anything. He is absolutely loving shameful and Pro14 fans have had to put up with his shite for years.

Didn't make a difference in the end, what with the French discovering their 6N form again.

To be fair, I do think the French were hard done by, but players actively use the ref to shield themselves from being tackled by defenders all the time and nothing gets done. This was just a bit worse than normal.

And next issue. Are the All Blacks going to come last in this year's Tri Nations, as some would have us believe?

If a scrumhalf drives your 8 backwards 10 metres in a tackle, you've got some serious problems.

 Hastings with a nice step and pass there. George Horne might be Scotland's 9 for the 6N at this rate.

Second half not as good as first there. Maybe Pumas should just pick some of their Euro based players, can't see how the current set up is benefiting them.

Smorgasbord posted:The Australian commentators are possibly the sookiest whingers in the world. It varies, Rod Kafer is reasonably balanced, Greg Clarke is I guess more or less the usual biased commentator. Phil Kearns on the other hand is the absolute worst commentator in the world. He has about as much perspective as a two year old throwing a tantrum. Sometimes I can't believe I'm paying for that poo poo.

Honestly, the people complaining about Justin Marshall have never heard loving Phil Kearns or Jonathan Davies. Sure, Marshy has some annoying catchphrases (BOOMFAH!) and some odd turns of phrase (Me oh my yes I enjoyed that, boy! anyone?) but he's enthusiastic and is willing to critique his own teams. When people criticise him, it's like "motherfucker, have you heard Kearns and Davies commentate?" I can't imagine how insufferable a Wallabies v. Wales test with both Kearns and Davies commentating would be.

Davies is fine, provided that you don't care at all about commentators being objective. I like that he's enthusiastic and animated

When people criticise him, it's like "motherfucker, have you heard Kearns and Davies commentate?" I always thought Marshall was one of the better. His co-commentator is far worse for sucking AB dick, regardless of what's happening in front of him. Worst commentator is Mark Robson. His verbal diarrhea is horrendous. It's like someone with a severe concussion, who had never heard Bill McLaren but had him badly described to them then tried to tell Robson what his style was like and that he should copy it. This isn't even his worst poo poo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4O3jGUXr_tk
