[2021 Six Nations] Wales vs England (27/02/21)

[Ragey Erasmus]

This ref is a ******* disgrace. You can't "play to a ref" when he is penalising anything he possibly can.

 

[Not Eddie Jones]

Wales have done almost nothing. The ref is just handing it to them. Even Jiffy says Wales have done nothing!

 

[Reiser99]

I try to fair to the ref, but this is getting ridiculous. You stop the game to talk to the captain and tell him to talk to his players, he then does that while the water carriers are on and you allow Wales to take it quickly...

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Unbelievable kick, terrible time to do it.

 

[Wasps92]

This referee is an absolute disgrace.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Need to get Hartley on to sort out the ref.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Ice man

 

[Cruz_del_Sur]

That was ridiculous. When the ref specifically tells a captain to talk to his team he should check with him before he allows the penalty taker to proceed. The point is NOT to give an advantage to a team but to prevent a certain action from happening again.
I understand the ref is the ultimate authority but they need to figure out a way to make them accountable for their mistakes. That was just sad to watch.

 

[higgik]

But when you have a reputation like Farrell, the ref will be more intolerant.
Not saying he is having good game, but he will favour the less annoying team

 

[AlRums]

This ref is a ******* disgrace. You can't "play to a ref" when he is penalising anything he possibly can.

If he's penalising everything he possibly can, are you suggesting he should let illegal play go?

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

These penalties are ridiculous. Having the ball = peno.

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

Farrell got ****** on the not rolling call but England just can't be sending the waterways out there and expecting the referee to stop the game for them. Game starts when the referee restarts the play.

Maro should have been binned after three penalties.

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

The same indiscipline that causes a ramping up of penalties like this has dogged Jones' tenure and should be a serious question mark over him.

The only thing you can say is perhaps it's that same playing on the edge which is responsible when we're on top, and perhaps - you can't have it both ways?

I'm not sure

 

[Not Eddie Jones]

I was gonna stay sober with this one, but i think I'm gonna go out and buy some booze. Better than watching the ref penalise us off the park.

 

[TW27BA]

This ref is ruining the game.

 

[ForumWhore]

This is going to get ugly. England have lost the plot.

 

[Groundhog]

6N Games without game altering poor refereeing decisions: 0

 

[Reiser99]

There Mako dived on the ball first, he wasn't playing it on the ground. Therefore scrum to Wales...wtf?

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

If he's penalising everything he possibly can, are you suggesting he should let illegal play go?

I'm suggesting he is penalising for stuff that isn't even illegal, he allowed a try after telling Farrell to talk to the players and he has turned a blind eye to Welsh infringements.

Like there, Mako dived for the ball on the floor, completely legal, ref calls it diving off feet, which it wasn't. He gave a penalty for LEGAL play. How can you play the ref when you get penalised even when you aren't doing something wrong?

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

This ref is a ******* disgrace. You can't "play to a ref" when he is penalising anything he possibly can.

French refs don't give a **** about materiality. Gotta have 30+ penalties a game ffs.
