O faark, juis my man Willemse innie kuk nou!
But WP must be disadvantaged if an individual who is part of the team loses his cool like Rhodes did. Its a team game after all and the team must also feel the pain.
And I’m a WP man, hehe!
WP penalty, for a clean-out by Willemse… Jeeez, tiddlywinks here we come
Ons is oppad na 2 en n half uur wedstryde as alles nou verwys word
Am I imagining it or are the players starting to read Kolbe?
the whole idea of these rules are to appeal to youngsters. and swift punishment isnsometimes crucial.
people dont want to see rucking because that was already taken away because the line is so difficult to judge sometimes.
@ MacroBull:
yes it is fair to send him off….no question, but he should be replaced and then go and sit in front of a tribunal which might effect his career. I’m not saying don’t card guys and send them, not at all. read my original suggestion based on international waterpolo rules (which incidentally is one of the dirtiest games in the world)
when you get to a situation where you dont send off someone lying on the wrong side and not sending off the guy rucking… rugby will descend into chaos.
Flagman again… Vleis with a high tackle.
Yellow for Vleis… arghhh
Dis nou die grootste kuk! Asseblief, was daai nou n geelkaart vir n hoogvat?
Nee hel maak rugby touch rugby , geen kontak meer
@ MacroBull:
that’s just a personal thing of mine. Lying on the wrong side is so often cynical, so suffer. What I’m on about is not spoiling games by disadvantaging an entire team and potentially an entire nation because of one mans stupidity or rush of blood to the head.
I’m not sure about that yellow but I’ll take anything at this stage…..
Missed, off the upright.
Francois Venter does well
Nee hel kom ons boikot rugby , die kak is nou n sirkus
@ superBul:
Dan sal die lifeguards altyd wen ou maat. Baie oefening in sag sand! 🙂
@ 4man:
jys reg….
haha
vok daai yellow was n kak call
19 Minutes left to play, the difference is 10
@ superBul:
Ek se jou, ek raak seker maar oud, maar hierdie refs maak almal senuagtig. Een verwysing en vergadering na die ander.
@ superBul:
nooit…..wat gaan ons dan watch….plante grooi? 😉
lyk of wp dit gaan deurtrek
Yellow card on Engelbrecht was harsh I thought. Refs are messing up a lot it seems.
Must say Kitsoff looks like he should have a trial for the G and G soon.
Jeeeez, they are making rugby so soft, soon Masterchef will have more action and physicality
WP scrum penalty… shot at goal by Gary van Aswegen
@ 4man:
Jis 4man dit is nie lekker nou nie. Tackled speler moet gelos word maar dan mag hy opvlieg en verder hol
144 @ grootblousmile:
@ Puma:
Puma where u these days?
WP 26 / 13 Blue Bulls
Broz is going soft. Calling WP courageous….
Standards are dropping….(sug)
