[2016 RBS Six Nations] Round 4: Scotland vs. France (13/03/2016)

This is the worst referee performance I've seen in a long time. Absolutely clueless, especially at the breakdown where the Scots were allowed all sorts of illegal stuff. Also, can't believe that try was given.
 
You're like an even more sinister devious Captain Hook with your hook hand

and don't You just know it Groundhog.

Was just about to say that: Inverdale has a serious man crush on the midget.
 
OMG France, what a silly and poor first half ! We should crush to the ground this scottish team but we just do silly mistakes, hope we will put things right for the second half. Sadly, too bad start now to hope for a final victory in the tournament, we would need to beat Scotland by at least 30 points to have some hope against England, wont happen now.

The referee is pretty bad, the first scottish try is full of scottish fault....
 
I agreed with the non-call on Laidlaw, techincally yes he holds the shirt but realisitically the French player was unimpeded and wasn't slowed by it. No complaints by the French player too it should be noted.

Hope for 2nd best chance.

Just about to say exactly that but it will not appease some....strange that the vociferous ones seem to be English when surely they are happy France are getting beat as gives them the Championship?

I'm not fussed about the call, but it was foul play.

Nah i want France to win, makes winning the Slam even more pleasing.

Not to be arrogant.

Would you expect any other ref to give the try after that though?

I mean, I can understand where you and he are coming from, but I think it's a shocking piece of consistency.

I get that mentality but I've watched us botch a championship 4 years on the trot I just want us to win it.

No, I spuspect many would have seen the pull and waved it off. It was mentioned on comms but I wonder if Jackson being a recent (relatively) former player informed his decision
