Crusaders coach Todd Blackadder is still fuming over Bryce Lawrence’s poor performance in Christchurch last Saturday. (tut tut a few calls go against blackadder and he is fuming! Where was blackadder when they made brycy nz ref ofthe year for services rendered at WC?)
New Zealand’s 2011 Referee of the Year failed to penalise Julian Savea for obstructing Tom Taylor, who was attempting to tackle Conrad Smith, which allowed the Hurricanes centre to score. Canes lock Jeremy Thrush was also in Luke Romano’s way in the lead-up to Smith’s second try just before half-time.
‘To me [Smith's first try] was not a try,’ said Blackadder. ‘If there was a TMO like rugby league, they wouldn’t have allowed it.(Exactly so and that is why Todd we here inSA who are well aware of nz refs capabilities, shall we say, are trialing some new things re the TMO)
‘Even the second one [was dubious], when they had a guy in our defensive line as obstruction (One coul dweep at the injustice o fit all eh Todd!). But we weren’t quite on song and put our hands up and took responsibility for what wasn’t a very accurate performance.’ (Unlike an outstanding performace by the Boks in the WC against Oz but who were denied at every turn by your beloved bycy or suddenly not so beloved right now - brycy mad eover 40 errors tha tmatch almos tall agaisnt the Boks)
The Hurricanes’ 23-22 win brought them back into play-off contention and all but ended the Crusaders’ hopes of winning the New Zealand conference.
So sad blub blub. A few call went agains the crusties, Also how about when the Stormers played you twits and were blown out of the match for offsides by Pollack I think it was. How about that Toddles.
Hey brycy isn't it time you changed your posting name - its getting blacker by the day!
