[2018/19 Heineken Cup] Round 1: Pool 2 (13&14/10/2018)

[TRF_Olyy]

They'll penalise that but ignore a really clear drop from Beirne after the turnover?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

YELLOW CARD?!?!?!


This sport is a ******* joke

and you've got Heaslip(?) on comms saying it should be a red

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Harsh. I don't think it's clear there's no wrap there.

 

[Groundhog]

Bloody ridiculous call. I would have said he came in the side and that's about it!
More concerned about Gloucester killing the ball at rucks whenever they can. Awful game so far

 

[Leinster Fan]

Can't see anything even approaching a yellow there. Even a penalty seemed harsh.

Even the crowd didn't react to the replays. I understand a young enough ref not wanting to appear harsh on anything around the head but still it's a joke. I'd be bulling if that call were on us. We were lucky at a breakdown there too.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Exeter 9 is putting his side under so much pressure. Keeps faffing about at poorly defended rucks and throwing passes above players.

Felt like the ref wanted to find something because the touch judge was adamant it was foul play


Never expected Cipriani to make that kick - doubt he even did, just wanted to wind the card down haha

 

[Groundhog]

Williams needs to go. His passing is a joke

 

[TRF_Olyy]

He's probably gonna get red carded for this, going off this muppet's calls so far

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Think that is a red to be honest.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Home boy fell face first into a shoulder, with the exception of spontaneous combustion there was no where Cipriani was going.

Turning this **** show off, Exeter game it is

 

[Groundhog]

It's a red under the laws. Bad law but that's not on the ref. Why did he call O'Mahony in for that though it has nothing to do with him.

No he didn't ollly he was running completely upright to be fair. Let's not blame Scannell for getting doubled during a simple carry.

 

[Gavin]

That is unfortunate for Cips. I actually thought the first player who tackled Scannell was high and that was the cause of the shoulder to head by Cips

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

That's the game anyway. Feel bad for Cips, probably my favourite English player, but you can't have any complaints standing upright in a tackle these days.

 

[Narbz]

Just switched off the Gloucester game and now the Exeter game is getting a red. Really turning me off rugby union all of this malarky

 

[Which Tyler]

"Can't have any complaints"? You're obviously new here*

Here* being TRF, the sport of rugby, and the entirety of the internet.

 

[Groundhog]

Gloucester need to keep the heads for their own sake. This will become a farce. You don't have to like the calls but be smart.

 

[Leinster Fan]

Twelvetrees is going to get yellow for this. The ref hasn't been great hut Gloucester need to cop on.
