Premiership Rugby 21/22 - Grand Final

[TRF_Olyy]

Binny has finished this season so strongly

 

[IT157]

Irrelevant, head contact is still contact. What does it matter if one is bigger?

That was my point. It should be irrelevant but I feel like it isn't.

Alex Goode gonna change the game as scrumhalf

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Binny has finished this season so strongly

He looks lean (or as lean as a Vunipola can be). Unironically deserves to be back in the England squad.

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

All the English saracens players should be used to playing without a scrumhalf. Could be an advantage here.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Montoya was running faster
Weird distinction to make when (as mentioned above) Davies was going forward too
Not like it was a passive hit, he clobbered him in the face

Literally just making stuff up to not give a red I think. I've never seen whoever created the force considered before, nor should it be.

Barnes should retire ASAP, going the way of the celeb ref a bit recently.

Yeah but Jones doesn't pick based on form

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Farrell been poor so far this match (all year).

 

[Jimbo]

This is as close to vintage Billy as I can remember.

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Mako still can't scrum it seems.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

They've used it in the Prem this season,
Seen passive hits (i.e. to hold up/create a maul) that end up with the ball carrier running into a shoulder been given as yellows

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Great pace and line there.

 

[Reiser99]

What a planned move. Fantastic

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Hell of a power play try there.

Yeah but passive is if you stand there and go backwards. Davies was going forward, just Montoya was stronger. Barnes got it wrong.

 

[IT157]

Great try by Leicester.

 

[Which Tyler]

It wasn't a passive hit though.
SH was moving forward in the tackle, just that Montoya went further forward.
The tackle was forceful and to the head, it's red all day long.

Interesting if I recall correct Gibson Park got a yellow in a champions cup game for very similar, it's certainly not unique here.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Pretty strong by Steward there

 

[Reiser99]

Thinking about the discussion has anyone actually said it was a clear yellow and not a red? Aren't we all just discussing precedent and why Barnes was wrong?
