He will either blindly guess or simply award the pens to the higher ranked side. Given that both sides are at top end of table there will be plenty of guessing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dogmc Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Whoever dominates the first couple of scrums will be awarded the majority of the penalties Yep.....which is ridiculous. If referees ensure the ball is fed down the middle and props didn't have their elbows pointing down scrums would be completed far more often. It's really fustrating see how badly the scrum is refereed now compared to 20 years ago. Too many people in the irb (especially sh ) trying to turn union scrums into league scrums. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

come on shire Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Agreed. Hogg has been consistent in the recent past whilst Halfpenny was a long term injury absentee aswell. In other news, I'm off to Cardiff tomorrow. Got a ticket for the terrace. Hoping the rain stays off. Last time I had a terrace ticket was last season in Galway when it came down like Noah's flood. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Lambies Doos Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Hogg is a much better player than halfpenny. Much better.. he has improved tremendously under the high ball too (one of halfpenny strengths, along with place kicking)Gatland will pick halfpenny. Really can't be arsed with the lions anymore. In absence of any Scottish starter, I'll be supporting NZ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In absence of any Scottish starter, I'll be supporting NZ I've always enjoyed the Lions but if this is another tour where scottish players deserving of places are ignored, we should pull out of it altogether. Suspect the high profile commercial sponsorship has resulted in a desire to pander to English n Welsh audiences rather than what is best for the Lions to beat their opponents. The last tour was a joke, only redeemed by weak opposition. This time round it needs best possible squad to get near nz. Anything less will be a full blown humiliation possibly even worse than Woodwards tour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
