Is that the same set where Twal was tackled and one their blokes was laying around in the play the getting a sun tan and Api has to spin around and gets tackled right in the same spot wasting two tackles? The refs are shite everyone of them I have to question do they even practice this shite they dish up.

A couple of years ago they stopped putting the onus onto the defender to clear the ruck and now the defenders just do what ever they want to inhibit the dummy half and nothing gets done coz they go from one end to the other without any common sense.

Anyway we got shafted on that play and it (the referee) turn the momentum.
I hate refs, and my pop and uncle were first grade referees. My pop is a legend of the referees world and I hate refs.
Incompetent idiots these days,

It was the set following the 40/20 and yes Api did spin around and got tackled almost on the same spot .To me it looked like an Api dummy play that didn't come off. What concerns me is we had a big overlap on next tackle to the right and Joffa receives the ball looks right and doesn't pass and instead crashes in to defence 5m in front of him .Now Api dummy half for last tackle and the overlap to right is gone so he sends it left ending with Talau being tackled 5m out
Terrible clunky attack joffa mainly to blame .Even commentators said we might have scored if we went right .

Tbh it shouldn't even have went to him, that ball should've went to a half, you can't expect a guy who's played most his career as a standard forward to suddenly be able to take advantage of overlaps

Yes agree, I was just saying that Api’s wasted tackle wasn’t completely his fault, and in my day would’ve been a penalty to us for laying around in the ruck.
