Tri-Nations 06: Game Three; Kiwis vs Lions

[Poida]

lol everyone knows or should know simpkins sucks.
he shouldnt have reffed the grand final or a international game

[Meh]

This was a game GB should have won, they outplayed NZ but just had no ideas in the final 3rd. I dont know what game the ref was watching but there was plenty of errors from him. NZ played well in defence and looked dangerous everytime they got inside our 20.

Outplayed NZ? hardly...both teams had a pretty scrappy performance but britains execution was just slack apart from the final 10 minutes where there seems to be no defence at all. Completions rates would be the main factor to the result, nothing flash from either team but GB were way down.
something like 8-15 errors seems to say it all.

Yeah, if there was an Aussie ref in the series, it had to be Steve Clark IMO.
Well one positive from Simpkins, thank God it wasn't HAMPSTEAD....! :eek:

Well done Kiwis :win: , but they could have played much better. They were flat-footed a lot last night in desperate situations. GB played alright, but they made too many fumbles and left their run way too late. Brent Webb had one of the best games I have seen him play. His try was brilliant. Adrian Morley's naughtyness was needless, but it was fun to watch. Very sloppy tackle on Ruben and punching Webb was silly. :roll: Thought we were turning back to 2003 for a second. :cop: But a highlight for GB...Keith Senior's online defence was great!

After watching the news highlights, they showed an angle where in the tackle the NZ'er elbowed him in the face, so it wasn't all that cheap...

Yeah true, just realised that.
Brent Webb actually admitted that he elbowed Moz, so he was a bit cheeky there. It was still good to watch Moz go for it, though it was very dangerous to punch him in the back of the head.
And jeez, after he took Ruben Wiki high, David Kidwell made a huge tackle on Morley and went in his face, like he did with Willie! He was going to rip into him! :box: Put him in his place there!
