Well as I said we couldn't have played any worse and we are down by 8. So its still game on but boy oh boy did we play like tards.
There have been some really soft penalties in this game.
We defended with a bit more spunk though.
Listen the refs are going to cane us in the rucks for whatever reason. Either they perceive that we are bad in the ruck or we are actually bad. It doesn't matter. Penalties are killing us, kicking early then adds to us not having any ball at all.
No difference between that and the strip penalty the Sharks got. Sharks hands were pulling at the ball, that's why it ultimately came out.
Are you referring to the one in the act of attempting to score a try?
Kicking early is such a shit tactic for us in any game. We are not a grinding team. To continue on with it against the sharks when we're behind is just geniused. Its another of Stuarts stupid tactics that he will be too boneheaded to change.
