GAD Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Poite just told the TMO who was watching it on TV and telling him there was a hit in the air, that there wasn't a hit in the air, leading directly to an England try. There was a hit in the air. Still, better not criticise the refs, eh? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 That decision is interesting. Poite's comment to the TMO was that Biggar had jumped into the England player, which was absolutely correct. Biggar effectively landed on a stationary player, which he does a lot, this is the first time he hasn't got a penalty for it. IIRC, Finn Russell got a couple of weeks a few years back for Biggar basically jumping through him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, the guy was fully tackling him before he hit the ground, he didn't just bump into him. 99/100 that's a completely uncontroversial penalty. Also, is this not the same guy who gave a match deciding penalty for the lions when Sinkler got tackled jumping into the air for absolutely no reason? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying it's not a penalty, but I can see where he's coming from. If you are standing where a player is going to land, is it your responsibility not to make contact with him, or his not to make contact with you? Biggar has previous for just launching himself through the air, endangering himself and the player on the ground, yet still getting the penalty. It may have been the wrong decision, but it's karma for the little c**t. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just not convinced that's really what happened there. I don't think either team has been great here. Lots of mistakes and the scrum is a farce. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detournement Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 (edited) Wales won't throw straight or scrum. And have been doing the same shit for years now. They should really switch to league. Edited November 28, 2020 by Detournement 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

come on shire Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 We're 3-0 down after just 2 mins. They also won penalty advantage after Ryan Wilson collapsed the line out in front of the ref. After getting a stupid yellow card in the last game I'm surprised Harley doesn't get a shot as captain. I'm our first attack we knock the ball on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
