How many people currently watching the Reds v Hurricanes game are shaking their heads at how TJ Perenara just bluffed Angus Gardner.
Hurricanes attacking 5m scrum, get the push on and AG signals advantage and then blows for the PK. Without picking up the ball, which is on the ground and on the mark, Perenara appears to tap the ball, pick it up and dart over for the try before the scrum has even broken up. AG awards the try but before the kick is taken, the TMO tells AG that Perenara missed tapping the ball with his foot.
AG changes his decision and awards a 5m scrum to the Reds for the incorrectly taken quick tap. As he is explaining to Perenara the reversed decision, Perenara says, "But it would still be our PK then". AG replies, "Fair point"' and changes his decision from a Red scrum to a PK to the Hurricanes.
Oh dear.
