[2020 Six Nations] Wales vs France (22/02/20)

[pagliaccio_euforico]

Shouldn't have allowed him to take it again, I usually like biggar but that was dumb as ****, also just kicking a ball into a guy as a retaliatory measure runs into foul play territory.

Out of interest, why was it not play on after the Biggar incident?

Because he's a twat

 

[TheOvalBall]

3 points please

Who knows? Refs can give scrums to attacking team when they milk a penalty but I guess Carley decided a redo was best option.

 

[AlRums]

Now Jiffy whinging about the ref

 

[TheOvalBall]

Great kick Romain.

Right? The French player was retreating, Biggar chose to take the kick. If it isn't foul play against Biggar, for me it's just play on.

I guess the guy technically was offside(? impeded play either way) so the ref said take it again rather than penalise because there was literally nothing he could do about it bar spontaneously combust

It's like when refs don't penalise a 9 for deliberately throwing a ball at a retreating player

 

[TheSaffycen]

Big kick, impressive from the young French team

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Allez, allez, allez...

 

[AlRums]

Now that was a forward pass

 

[Every Time Ref]

I guess the guy did technically was offside(?) so the ref said take it again rather than penalise because there was literally nothing he could do about it bar spontaneously combust

But surely he's not offside if he's retreating and attempting to stay out the way, which he was

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

If awj is such a good captain why do his teams lack composure?

 

[TheOvalBall]

I'm nervous lol

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

He's not offside cause you can't be offside on a free kick/penalty kick, the actually offense is not retreating back 10.

attacking team can't milk an additional fk or pk if the other team is attempting to retreat.

 

[AlRums]

What a drive back by France

 

[TheOvalBall]

Brilliant mauling from France.

 

[Leinster Fan]

That's blatantly not a deliberate knock on, why tf are we even checking this.

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

"Slap down high tackle" wtf is he on?

 

[TheSaffycen]

Think that France got away with murder there
