Aviva Premiership 15/16 - Round 14

[ncurd]

Mafi has probably been the best Bath signing of the past two seasons

better than Burgess?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Who?

 

[ncurd]

Who?

greatest center to ever grace rugby union.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Shame Mafi is leaving Bath end of season not......

Oh said too much.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

That's such a **** penalty.

Chudley caught the ball then hit the deck - it's not like he slid onto it and you have to let him up.
Also Roko fell over him he didn't dive into him.

I guess it's the rules, but surely then any ball carrier could just fall on the floor before a tackle and win a penalty

Must admit - I wasn't terribly happy with that decision

Chudley commits the first penalty offence (kickable too, with a 2 point difference); and Roko's is not exactly a retaliation, or anything worth reversing the decision for surely?

Manu update?

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Manu update?

Still 20% off IMO.

Put a huge hit on Cowan.

Hands leave a lot to be desired (rustiness rather than the preconceived myth of his inability to touch a rugby ball) but was massively physical.
I'd still consider him for the England bench (for Goode, though Jones would drop Daly first I reckon).

 

[Lé Ddanno]

I like the header-into-touch-whilst-burying-the-carrier technique.

I think Jones likes Daly for his ability to play everywhere . I'd hazard a guess that Goode won't be in the squad come the summer . Can Eddie change the EPS for the Aus tour ?
