What did Jacko just say to Cruden?

What did Jacko just say to Cruden?

Something like "Don't talk like that to ... ? ... again, or I'll bin you"

And Cruden takes the first opportunity to apologise.
TJP - take note... first of all, don't be a dick. Secondly - if it slips out, apologise.

Stargazer

Disappointing the Chiefs didn't manage to score a try in that passage of play. Only penalties thus far.

Crash

Beaver the most attacking runner by far

Crash

phew thank fuck for the red button

Kruse

phew thank fuck for the red button

No red button on pay-as-you-go NowTV... thank fuck for RugbyPass

Even I was hoping for the stormers to score then. The chiefs were so far offside they may as well wear blue jerseys. It's fucking embarrassing

gt12

It's a virus, now the stormers are just as bad.

Stargazer

Oh fuck.

gt12

You're kidding.

gt12

Come on Jaco.

Fuck you TMO!!!!

gt12

Is that TMO a Saffer?

gt12

That's it. I think I might be done watching rugby.

Without making judgments about that particular ruling, I really don't like the partisan nature of the TMOs. Particularly in South Africa.

Stargazer

I guess it's consistent to give YC for 'shoulder against head' contact, but it shows this rule is over the top.

Edit: After some thought, the YC was unfair. YC/RC is for intentional or reckless. This looked accidental. Penalty would have been enough.

Kruse

Come on Jaco.

Fuck you TMO!!!!

Yeah - Jaco trying his best to be sensible, the TMO... well...

Jaco seems fine... I'm not particularly optimistic about the assistants or TMO though.

I don't even think it hit him on the head first - I think it rode up.

But what about Etsebeth to Donald's head??? Why no fucking check check for that?

gt12

Fucking Hames is a penalty magnet btw.

Replaced. Good.
