[2019 Six Nations] England vs France (10/02/2019)

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

"Come on golden boy let's go let's go" rate that

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Great Rip from Faz.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Yes.

You've seen Ashton's scattyness.... that call's a prime example - if it comes off he gets all the praise, but it's mental and unnecessary.

I meant for Curry, you North Western player hater

 

[TommiG88]

We've been lazy this half.

 

[Pom in Exile]

Mullins, Kay and Dayglo
No Dewi in sight

Aargh, I'm watching in Oz so we've got Dewi and an annoying bellend.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Can we count that as an Ashton try?

 

[Every Time Ref]

Good decision Nige, some would've bottled that

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Sladey loves an intercept

 

[TheSaffycen]

Is it a try or not?

 

[big ginger 8]

Ball was behind Ashton when tackled but was cynical.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Lol at the French player telling curry he's bleeding

I think he knows!

 

[TheSaffycen]

Yellow for Fickou, God this could go very poor if England are smart here now

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

That was a peno and a yellow but not a PT. Ashton had missed it.

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

I know it's facetious but aren't penalty tries meant to be given for certainty rather than "probably"

 

[Tooting Carmen]

What an awful interception. Penalty try due to illegal tackle on Ashton.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Ball was behind Ashton when tackled but was cynical.

50/50 for me
Was pretty much level but the off the ball tackle stopped him putting his arm out to try and gather it

Wouldn't have been surprised/massively aggrieved to see it not given

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Ball was behind Ashton when tackled but was cynical.

Aye.

IMO needed to give it may

 

[Bluemoon]

Hmm. It's academic really, but are we sure that Ashton would have scored that? Possibly a pen and a yellow card anyway for tackle off the ball?

 

[Every Time Ref]

Ball was behind Ashton when tackled but was cynical.

You might have a point. Would like to see another replay actually

 

[Groundhog]

Not a penalty try for me because Ashton had overrun it before tackled but I don't mind seeing cynical play like that hammered with the max punishment.
