Wales v England I

[Tichtheid]

Only a yellow

Like I said, now that they have this review and upgrade system, refs are never going to issue an on field red again unless it's a really obvious piece of foul play like a punch of headbutt.

This.

[Biffer]

Farrell

What a dickhead.

[sefton]

We won’t even get out of the group stage.

[petej]

Farrell is a fucking moron. He is very lucky.

It'll be a red

It is Farrell. They have repeatedly let him off.

A real problem is stupidity of a leadership group that includes genge and farrell. They are so much thicker than the England football team which is a reversal from 20 years ago.

[Torquemada 1420]

Wales concede against 12 men

These 2 teams FFS.

[tc27]

Haha thats super embarrassing for Wales.

[inactionman]

Dear god. A try.

[Margin__Walker]

Ah Wales. Bless you for keeping it interesting. Some effort

[sockwithaticket]

Cripple fight doesn't quite do it justice.

[Biffer]

He must have been on that tackle course enough now that it counts as credit towards a bachelors degree.

[tc27]

Ford at 10 is good news for England.

Come on WR throw the book at him.

Yeah, not this time.

There's the red.

The bunker is great imo. Can't see them getting rid of it. Really makes sense to not keep the crowd waiting whilst things are looked at, but it's clearly at least a yellow.

Given university standards these days, that's a full on PHD.

[Tichtheid]

I presume/hope there isn't a second chance at the course but you never know with these eedgits who decide the bans

[Slick]

Did they just say England are playing Ireland next week

[Torquemada 1420]

Steward not getting red is an utter joke too.

On the other hand, might have got the crowd involved on this occasion

They are indeed, in Dublin

Please god Ire put out your 1st team.

[Margin__Walker]

Genuine question, has anyone ever got a red for one of those when the landing is on the side, rather than head/neck?

Yellow's right for me.

[Simian]

Steward not getting red is an utter joke too.

I thought so too

[inactionman]

Earls workrate is immense

[Torquemada 1420]

Genuine question, has anyone ever got a red for one of those when the landing isn't on the head/neck area?

Yellow's right for me.

And that's the bit that infuriates. The whole protocol is about player safety and so the card is decided on the randomness of the outcome rather than the danger in the action.

[sockwithaticket]

Yellow's right for me.

I feel like I've seen a couple, but they were falls from much greater heights and where only the falling player positioning their arms correctly prevented them from directly falling on their head/neck.

[Tichtheid]

Steward not getting red is an utter joke too.

I thought so too

He actually looked at the ball. looked at the Welsh player and then decided to hit him

[sockwithaticket]

Youngs dithering with the ball

[Torquemada 1420]

Wales about to lose to 12 men sums up these 2 Keystone Cops sides.

[inactionman]

Well, at least its now interesting

Yeah, I've seen them (I think) where the player's had the hands out to prevent the face plant, but never coming down completely sideways, like in this one today.

[tc27]

Absurd game.

[Torquemada 1420]

Who is this w*nker commentating and is running a PR campaign for Borthwick?

[tc27]

So i guess the talking point was the atmosphere but is now Stewards yellow?

[Margin__Walker]

Never in doubt.

Good old Borthwick. Working hard and building.

Ireland should be fun.

[inactionman]

So i guess the talking point was the atmosphere but is now Stewards yellow?

I think a few words may be said about young owen

[C69]

Absurd game.

It was terrible.

[el capitan]

Just ban both of these useless sodding outfits from the tournament. Spare us all.

[Slick]

Decent of England to remind us how useless Wales are as well

[salanya]

Awful match, 2 shit teams and a bizarre refereeing performance.

This bunker is nonsense, just an excuse for refs to cop out of decisions. The ref had all the angles and didn't call a shoulder to the head as red.
