Scotland v Ireland, 24/02/13

[big ginger 8]

After the way he has reffed today....guess their opinions have now changed? Just goes to show, the decisions even themselves out over time as that was no yellow and there have been other "50:50" calls gone to Ireland too!!

What 50:50 calls?

Much better scrum.

 

[Patchey]

How have Ireland not got any points yet?

Marshall is looking very good.

"Rory Best is a great lineout thrower" - Ulster/Ireland fans.

2nd BOD try that Earls has scuppered!

 

[UlsterRugby2012]

Earls you ****ing nob pass it

 

[BRSTLDRGN]

Thats twice Earls has had BOD in a try scoring position and not passed to him

 

[Tony Manx]

What 50:50 calls?

O'Briens knock on in the tackle just then....the harmless grip round the head that was penalised for the first time in living memory......the squint throw in early doors by Best......

Earls blew that one!!

 

[smb64]

Good stuff from Ireland - Scotland have been lucky not to concede a try yet with those line breaks

Last year Best was unreal in the line out. Been absolute **** this year.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Lucky not to be called a deliberate knock on, that.
I've seen less given as penalties.

Missing a knock on isn't a 50 50 call. That was definitely penalty came through the maul legally gets to the ball and gets pulled down with hands around neck and head and I'm not sure what lineout you'e talking about so can't comment.

 

[Tony Manx]

Like beauty, fairness is in the eye of the beholder!!

NOS, the Dutch broadcasting station, decided to show this match. However, listening to the commentators is making me want to shoot myself. Man, it's awful. They don't know anything...

 

[TRF_Olyy]

More like Rory Second Best.

Scotland lucky to get away without a yellow there.

 

[TRF_Ezequiel]

It's weird to see Maitland in a Scottish jersey.

 

[snoopy snoopy dog dog]

Very impressed with Marshall. Best is a liability.

Is it Declan Kidney?

 

[Yorkshire Kiwi]

wayne barnes is a ****

 

[Tony Manx]

wayne barnes is a ****

He can never do right for doing wrong!!!

 

[BRSTLDRGN]

I am getting so bored with everyones default excuse being the ref. Its pathetic frankly, I think Barnes has had a decent game so far, ok the early yellow is a bit iffy but on the whole hes been ok so go find a new subject to ***** about like a football fan or go get your reffing qualifications and go do better

 

[UlsterRugby2012]

Scoreline is pathetic Ireland should be well infront.
Best please please sort your line out out.

 

[TRF_Ezequiel]

They're saying Brian O'Driscoll is Ireland's captain...

:fool:
