I think if they did that for all time wasting pens it would be great and Foley can't say he wasn't warned but still ...Quote:

Horrible looking leg/knee injury to the all blacks forward
Argentina 3 S Africa 3 after 15 minutes
Penalty try for SA, yellow card for Argentina.
Are the commentators in the Pumas V Boks game in the stadium or are they commentating remotely?
17-6 South Africa
Sounds like it's remotely, still better than the 2 Argentinian guys from a few weeks ago.Quote:

"Not pretty but effective" , kind of sums up this game
Great try at the end there, 20-34

I'm just back from the DAM, for Edinburgh's first URC game of the season - ran out very comfortable winners in the end. Conceded 2 early penalties, then scored 44 unanswered points. And that's still missing a number of players.
Very nice poignant mark of respect for HM Queen Elizabeth beforehand too - a lone piper played Flowers of the Forest, followed by an impeccably observed minute's silence.
Great to have live rugby back again.

on a separate note but linked to posts about the SA - Argentina match, the Australian commentators were so biased, especially when patting Foley on the back for taking a conversion quickly so the ref couldn’t look at the blatant forward pass that led to a try, and even more so with the delay of game penalty at the end, just about it tears and all the whining
All Blacks 10 Oz 0

Good comeback from Edinburgh against the Bulls - it was 15-0 to the Bulls, but is now 15-14 at ht following tries from Savala and Graham. Ill discipline a serious problem for Edinburgh this first half with 10 penalties, but the Welsh ref has been pretty one-sided, 'missing' a few clear penalties for Edinburgh.
Australia didn't help themselves with yet another couple of sin bins
36 years now since their last win at Eden Park
even playing half of the 1st half with just 14 i thought they were the better side but still found themselves down 17-0 at HT
FT South Africa 38 Argentina 21
Bugger, thought it was safe to read the thread as the last post was at the back of 4, got as far as ht in the South Africa game this morning then sacked it. 😔Quote:
