chrisjpainter Posted February 27, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 It's been a while since we've had such a poor ref too. He really was shocking! You'd have thought the biggest Northern Hemisphere comp could have slightly better refs, but he was so bad and contributed to a right pig's ear of a game. Oh well, time to see how much Ireland win by in their free pass match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes i agree the ref wasn't at his best and he did contribute to a poor game that's out first team injury list On the injury list are Alun Wyn Jones, Josh Navidi, Justin Tipuric, Ken Owens, Leigh Halfpenny, George North and Taulupe Faletau. If you include British and Irish Lions caps that's a loss of 626 Tests' worth of experience.3 Feb 2022 1 hour ago, walshie said: England won 2 weeks ago as well.

Donkey Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 In your opinion was it a red card for me I don’t think so there was no time for the tackler to get lower and ball carrier did dip down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisjpainter Posted February 27, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 Just now, Donkey said: In your opinion was it a red card for me I don’t think so there was no time for the tackler to get lower and ball carrier did dip down Sigh. This is the problem with slow motion replays and granite rules. Shoulder contact with head: ✅ Force: ✅ time to hit low: ✅ Mitigating factors❌ Automatic red card. The letter of the law is that it's a red card. There was an attempt to wrap and it wasn't malicious, but neither of those factors were relevant in that situation. The trouble is it's so marginal. There was force, but not a lot of it. He did have time, but not a lot of it. I think a yellow would have been a fairer response - especially as it's resulted in Italy being forced to play with 13 now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel for the ref, because it's his debut as a 6N ref and the first Georgian to ref a 6N. Interesting, given the constant talk about Georgia joining, and I think he's been dealt a raw deal with the rules. But the thing that's frustrating me most now is Ireland's tactics! They've not made the most of the two man advantage, although that's starting to change now Edited February 27, 2022 by chrisjpainter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rim Fire Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 Ireland look like they going through the motion but they should take all the advantage they can as it may come down to points in the last game Anouther player off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mice! Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 Well I knew the result but finished watching Scotland France earlier, that was a cracking first half, and Scotland should have been in front but forced the pass. Second half was messy with France looking dangerous all the time, I thought Scotland played well, kicked well but France were just better, and took their chances. France certainly look like they'll take some beating, and England will have to show some creativity, otherwise we've no chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rim Fire Posted February 28, 2022 Report Share Posted February 28, 2022 (edited) Scotland played well hog should have scored that try and France are probably the best team in the world at the moment . And the Welsh public cant understand why we let Shaun Edwards go you can his defense already paying off for France Edited February 28, 2022 by Rim Fire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mice! Posted March 11, 2022 Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 What a game that was, I had recorded it so I could skip any messing at scrums, really seemed to speed up an already fast paced game.I'd forgotten that England needed Wales to win, I just enjoyed it, it could have gone either way.Where is the defence coach for France from again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokersmith Posted March 12, 2022 Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 Indeed a good game. They’ll be kicking themselves over the small mistakes that ended up costing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rim Fire Posted March 12, 2022 Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 i will have to see the match again as i was at a funeral by 1pm and the game was on at 8 so i couldn't see straight by then and i now feel 🤢 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperGoose75 Posted March 12, 2022 Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 (edited) Ourrr love was on the wing 🎶 we had dreams and songs to sing🎶🎶 🇮🇪 What a gruelling encounter. No doubt the the early sending off had a bearing on the overall game. England dug deep and Ireland seemed to be their own worst enemy at times with the amount of penalties given away. Nothing going right for them but stuck at it and pulled it out in the end. An entertaining game to watch and if we can beat Scotland next, then most of Ireland will be hoping England can do us a favour in beating the French. The prospect of an exciting finish on the final weekend of the tournament. Edited March 13, 2022 by SuperGoose75 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mice! Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 I'm just finishing the second half, I thought England were magnificent, when they went down to 14 I thought the game was ruined, I expected an absolute pasting from Ireland but how wrong I was. And what a legend Sexton is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisjpainter Posted March 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2022 Time to drop Wales from the Six Nations? What a result and what a final try! I was shouting at the Welsh to not kick that last clearance! Just go through the phases for 90 seconds! Don't open the door! But what a Way for Italy to barge straight through.
