Premiership Rugby 19/20 - the Semi Finals!

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Baxter acting like not knowing which team he was playing till later affects his game plan.
Chiefs haven't had another game plan for 13 years.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Let's play "whichever side the ref isn't on collapses", because that is a game everyone loves to watch.

 

[Which Tyler]

Not sure if I'm just being one-eyed, but Exeter doing a lot of holding down Bath's supporting players behind the ruck

 

[Which Tyler]

Huh?

He's right

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Exeter mullets are gross at the best of times, but Hills receders make his that much worse

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Er how is that not LCD blatantly being on the wrong side? He kneels up lifting the player with the ball and putting his body between the ball carrier and our 9.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Scrums are such a joke
"Use it or reset"
Or just ******* use it - it's supposed to be a means to restart the game, and the balls there to be used

 

[Which Tyler]

Broken finger for Stuart.
Luckily, he's a prop, so doesn't exactly need fine handling skills

 

[Every Time Ref]

Not sure if I'm just being one-eyed, but Exeter doing a lot of holding down Bath's supporting players behind the ruck

One of my pet hates, not just Exeter and not just this game but yes today it's particularly blatant

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Honestly once Exeter get 5M from the line might be wiser to just let them score.
Saves time.

 

[Which Tyler]

The only question is how many phases it takes this time

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Exeter allowed to enter rucks however they want a lie wherever they want atm...

 

[Which Tyler]

HTF?

(Hogg's intercept)

 

[Every Time Ref]

Is that not worth a look?

 

[Which Tyler]

Does that mean Barnes things neck?
It's trapezius all day for me.
The argument is whether that's neck or shoulder

 

[TRF_Olyy]

That's a definite red, surely
Shoulder to the back of the neck

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

That is a shoulder charge to the head, not the back. It's his shoulder that forces his head down!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Very very lucky boy

 

[Rinkadink]

I think it was neck/head, very dangerous, red.

How can that be allowed and yet shoulder charge tackles which statistically resulted in less severe injuries than wraps, outlawed?

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Stuart, brains of ******* cheese
