Bath go one eyed again and again it fails to succeed.

Eng's best side having a horror show in handling.

A player on the ground must not play the ball. It doesn't say anything about 'but it's ok if he's just trying to get away from the tackle'.

If they are letting him off because he's accidentally stripped it back then how is it a knock on and they don't then look at Bath touching the ball down?

Suggest you do a wiki on Karl Dickson for the answer. Again, how is a dreadful ref awarded a key game like this?

How many more pens by Leicester before Dickson speaks with them?

Given that you are wrong about everything, all the time, what are the glaring errors he has made so far?

I’d suggest TOTM knows more about refs, and players for that matter, than just about anyone else.
You want info or stats on anyone in rugby, ask him.

Torq is such a loser, he’d come second in Loser of the Year.

Didn't realise Russell was that quick tbh.

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 2025 3:22 pm**

If rugby wants to be more entertaining how about less tmo involvements. Didn't need to check the pass or the tackle there.

Given that you are a one-eyed, nationalistic FRISP, I don't think it merits an answer

BTW, I was watching a show by Baddiel a week or so ago, and he made the point that the Scots are the most one eyed lot around. He is spot on.

JVP not doing his England chances any good today. Borthwick will still pick him, mind.

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 2025 3:26 pm**

Steward. World class FB apparently.

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 2025 3:26 pm**

Does Ted Hill get a look in for England?

I reckon Dunn is close to MotM today

He ought to. Mystifies me that there's so much chat about moving locks to 6 (mainly Chessum) or playing Hill at lock rather than just giving him a proper go. It would seem to balance our back row better too if we're picking 2 of Curry (either one), Earl and Underhill. The greatest balance of all, again on the face of it, would be 6. Hill 7. Curry/Earl/Underhill 8. T. Willis.

And it's good night from them.

Good strength from Pepper there

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 2025 3:30 pm**

That will be ruled out as Muir knocked on but Radwan dearie me.

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 2025 3:30 pm**

Quality from Pepper. That's the game.

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 2025 3:30 pm**

Knock on, sadly

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 2025 3:31 pm**

Tigers making Bath look much better than they actually are

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 2025 3:32 pm**

Pretty sure the Leicester player knocked it on before that

Yeah, that was ugly from him. Admittedly none of his team mates did much to help.

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 2025 3:34 pm**

Austin seems to be getting increasingly frustrated and angry. Shame.

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 2025 3:39 pm**

When did Pollard last have a genuinely good game?

Come on Bath, don’t blow this
