ddfg Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Amazed commentators haven't mentioned Liam Williams failing to field a single high ball after all the bullshit about hoggs [emoji767] 'defensive liability'. Not to mention his knock on the the ref missed in the build up to the second Lions penalty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bob Mahelp Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Despite the commentary team seemingly watching a different game the combination side are a bit shite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChoppeReid Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Must admit I am surprised that Red was given. You normally get away with all sorts of crazy shit in rugby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandarilla Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 I don't care if you think it's staggering or not. Watson is back on the pitch and there was no serious injury. If rugby turns into football then the game is fucked. Garces is ruining this game...looks like he wants to be the main show. Surely the seriousness of long term brain injury is the reason why the authorities have made it much stricter in recent years?These guys are so fucking big and the evidence seems to be stacking up and that's the big difference.

dogmc Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 In addition to Williams having a mare vunipola is toiling badly in the scrum. Warburton has looked dead on his feet since tenth minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is exactly why these are given as reds now. Couple of years back it might have been yellow but it's generally a red now. Few Glasgow players have been done for that sort of hit in last year or two.

Although, in saying that it's obviously pretty difficult out there. There's been more high balls dropped than caught, by both teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIA is an inevitable development in football too. As it should be. 9-9 at half time. Lions are well set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pandarilla Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 The referee is a fucking clown. Ruining the game. I couldn't comment. I don't know the game well enough. It strikes me that different refs are known to have little foibles for different things. Does this guy generally nit pick or is it the weather causing the pens?
