Re: 6 Nations Round 3 - Scotland v England

Scotland were without our best winger I was vaguely trying to justify Borthwicks decision to start the elderly Care. A pointless endeavour. England selection makes as much sense as numberwang. The "Toonie Tombola" was coined as a phrase when Townsend was head coach at Glasgow, with seemin...

Re: Scotland France for the lazy buggers

That TSAanalytics wanker is all over it but in his verbose rant, he forgets that the angle that appears to show the ball on the ground doesn't show the line and it's too far away to be clear if there's anything else between the ball and the ground. Is it a clear and obvious grounding? No it isn't. ...

Re: Scotland France for the lazy buggers

Blatantly wrong decision from the TMO. No only did the ball visibly touch the ground on one angle, you can see it rebound slightly afterwards. It isn’t controversial. It’s just wrong.

Re: Six Nations Round 2: England vs. Wales

Unless there's been a change in directions on this, the onus is on the defending player to ensure they don't endanger the attacking player... so regardless of intent, contact with a player in the air is a sanction. So you're running towards the ball, someone runs from behind you but faster tries to...

Re: Scotland France for the lazy buggers

Shambolic decision at the end. I guess on balance there is no doubt the Scots had the rub of the green the whole game from the ref. But still, that fuck up at the end probably overrides VDM's clear and obvious pen try. Penauds blatant knock on was just before the French second try. The French lost ...

Re: Scotland France for the lazy buggers

Can't say it was grounded. Probably was but can't say for sure. Do you think it was levitating? No. I said it probably was a try but no picture showed the ball touching the grass, that's all. Nonsense there is a shot of the ball on the ground unless the bottom half of the ball is missing !

Re: Scotland France for the lazy buggers

You might as well do away with the TMO if you can look at all those angles and still get it wrong. Fair enough if the ref gets it wrong in real time I can live with that, but denying video evidence - bonkers.
