could be a win for BO. HOPEFULLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 15.00 ko whats all that about, Serge on a diet and abstaines from lunch, this is serious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Budda not eating? You have to be seriously joking!!! He will have a Brunch at his Chateau Brindos from which even he could walk to Aguillera given the time!!!
Just seen the highlights of the BO v Dax match (http://www.lnr.fr/videos-canal-pro-d2.html) and it is very difficult to see what really happened from this but one thing was clear, BO were playing against 14 men for 30 minutes but then had Placines rightly sent off for a headbutt.
The scrum looked under pressure, Waenga made the first try beautifully, the first Dax try was a clear knock on if the TMO had been asked to vew it, and BO disintegrated in the second half to the extent that they only won with a try in injury time.
Not convincing but only a bonus point win against USAP at the end of the month off second place................!!!!
Interestingly, in the Narbonne v Pau (without doubt the team for automatic promotion barring injuries), they had assistant referees in the goal areas? I wonder if this is in place of TMO or a new experiment?
the answer to your question.............the assistants in the goal area are there to give a hand to the ref on try scoring situations, this is in fact insteaD of a TMO, as it does not happen in the Pro D2, this has been going on for a while maybe 3 seasons or more not sure. Probably the only Pro D2 teams who have sceens are the ones that have suffered relegation. so not that many screens in the PRO D2, it's something that actually works well as the guys have only that to watch so the answers are rapid and the game flows much beter than in the TOP 14 where there are endless screenings and long awaited decisions from the TMO.
yes it is not an experiment as it has been going on for at least 3 seasons, good or bad that is a different story, the decision is quicker thats for sure, but the supporters see nothing there is no screen replay just a yes or no to the assistant in the goal area. I have a screen to look at all match if i want too but the supporters have nothing in the Pro D2 so its difficult to decide which is the better as both have positives and negatives. Depends on which side you are looking at it from!!!!
dont see where you are coming from there no is tmo in ther Pro D2 so this is the only visual help the ref gets along with his 2assistants on the touch line. of course they see it as it happens and there are no replays but 5 pairs of eyes are surely better than 3 pairs!!! if you remember this only concerns the Pro D2 not the TOP 14!! dont want to mentipon it but Aguillera is not TOP 14 ANYMORE SORRY!!!
