Would have been nice to make a game of it but that's embarrassingly bad.

Sorry to anyone watching but we're almost bottom of the league for a reason. The only upside is that we aren't Barf.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Beauty of a try but that's a mile forward

Saves our bacon cause that was either a yellow or a try, or both

ugo already penning an article in the guardian about fan's reactions to the try being disallowed

 

[Rinkadink]

What's a hit and chase?

Old school get-the-ball-in-quick-to-hide-the-early-shove

Saints used to do it in their prime, just go all out and hope the 9 gets the ball in before the penalty

sinkler has been invisible

Didn't even make contact with the head, it was just a seatbelt

Joyce crying to the assistant doesn't do much for the hardman persona he tries so hard to cultivate


Edit: Why they looking at Schonert? You're allowed to lead with the shoulder if you wrap, which he does

It's definitely not a red, put it like that.

Reckon yellow for shoulder charge/no arms tackle?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Schonert was fully legal what the hell are they on about - he wrapped both arms and it wasn't high

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Absolute joke of a card

Guess the big eared boys in the crowd have started to have an effect on the ref

It wasn't, arm tucked. Bit unlucky IMO but it was a no arms tackle.

You're allowed to make contact with the shoulder first if you wrap both arms after, which he did
It's how Farrell's been getting away with murder his whole career - bad optics but technically legal

 

[Rinkadink]

That's a clear shoulder to head as well TBF

Proper let off.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Bristol should be forced to play behind closed doors - where's FIFA when you need them

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Frank not even pretending to be impartial now

 

[Rinkadink]

Wooooooooooooooooo

THE KING OF THE MEAD

THE KING OF THE MEAD

King of giving away penalties right in front of the sticks <3


(fully aware we will still go on to lose this)

 

[Rinkadink]

BRB imagining what it's like to field a successful restart

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

yellow.

Honestly not sure on the mitigation though he was always going upright basically. LIke at best he would've hit him top of the chest.
