The OP Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 (edited) Personally I was sitting with my beret on and my English to Irish translation book out all ready to sing The Soldier’s Song. “Together standing tall” *telly aff* Edited March 16, 2019 by The OP 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngusTheBull Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Not convinced that was the right decision there. Wales had the advantage and should have had another there for Parkes being taken out off the ball - shouldn’t the two pens overrule the penalty being reversed? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honestly united Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 How bad are Ireland when a ref actually penalises them.for coming in at the side and sealing the ball 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No the late hit overrules anything that comes before Is that because of the nature of the offence (I.e. late hit) or because it was the last offence to take place? Should probably be be more on top of knowing the laws 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should probably be be more on top of knowing the laws [emoji38]Yeah because it is deemed foul play it over rules other penalty, if it was just a knock on of forward pass it would still been Welsh penalty 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Arrived home at HT to see Josh Adams slide tackle Keith Earls. I presume a card was given due to the nature of the offence? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great to see a ref who will punish a team trying to slow the ball down. If we'd had him last week we could well have won. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see the fist half, but from the first bit of the 2nd, would it be fair to say Wales are still getting away with murder? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 That's a shocker of a decision 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Only just joined this and every breakdown there is at least one Welsh player either offside or handling in the ruck. I take it they got away with that in the first half as well? I suppose Ireland are just getting a taste of their own medicine - they been getting away with coming in from the side for years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Connolly Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Sexton is having a shocker, and Ireland are getting nothing from the ref. Normally, this would please me greatly, but f**k Wales. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
