[QUOTE="bushytop, post: 937236, member: 56738"] Not aware of Irish players blaming Bowe for anything in '09... what was the situation there? About controversial decisions on the other foot... as I've said in other threads, we all see things shaded by our allegiances regardless of how hard we try not to. Something I've noticed about Ireland when we've been beaten (international & club) is that the ref seems to ignore cheap shots (high tackles, neck rolls etc) from the Irish on to the Welsh, as well as blatantly off side defensive lines (something Wales, England and Scotland has implemented since)... but I'm perfectly open to the fact that I'm only 'noticing' it as I'm a Welshman and feel aggrieved. What I would say is decisions go against teams all the time, so I do find it a little strange how they seem to cut 'so' deep in this fixture. [/QUOTE]
