Qualifying Final: Brumbies v Force

[Stargazer]

@chris Toni Pulu is apparently Aussie eligible. That's why he initially moved to the Brumbies. Unfortunately for him, his move didn't pay off. That's why he's at the Force now.

Stander and Pulu are Oz eligible.

Won't be selected, but nevertheless...

Ok fair enough has Pulu been in Australia long enough ?

@chris From an article of 2018:

New Brumbies signing Toni Pulu is immediately eligible to play for the Wallabies thanks to a dispensation granted by World Rugby.
The former Chiefs flyer holds an Australian passport and has previously played sevens for Niue — his ancestral home.

But a Rugby Australia spokesman told foxsports.com.au that World Rugby had cleared the 29-year-old speedster for Wallabies takeoff should coach Michael Cheika come calling.

Edited to add that he was born in the USA and moved to New Zealand at the age of 3.

1/4 of the game gone, Brumbies dominating the stats but it’s still 0-0

Force will be happy

[NTA]

@duluth it's what the force do: scrap away and try to stay close.

They are working Berry well at scrum time

[Chris]

Scrappy game a lot of stoppages and handling mistakes.

[Duluth]

Force should’ve conceded a penalty on attack. Straight off their feet at the ruck

[NTA]

@chris ponies don't like playing at pace. Force love the chaos.

[Kiap]

That's how ya do it.

[Kiap]

Well, dayum

[antipodean]

Piss weak defence by the Force fullback and the ponies take a deserved lead.

[Kiap]

Fark sake

[NTA]

That's a red. Thought he might have got yellow for to the tackle being in progress

[Yeetyaah]

How have these players not scrubbed this out of their game yet? Idiot.

[NTA]

@yeetyaah not like he was there in case the two big units missed the guy running straight at them

[Yeetyaah]

Force have done pretty well in the red card period.
