We bottled it worse from 40-60 by not putting France away. Left them in it far far too long. Zero incision made.

I think we’ll see a bit more next week and hopefully we grow into this tournie. I’ll certainly take it over last years start. The balls on Sexton and the skill of Earls on the cross field kick and then the drop goal. Onwards and upwards. The French will give a lot of teams quite a match from here as well.‘IF YOU had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.” Genghis Khan

I thought PSA looked a bit uncomfortable when Paulie started talking about the values of the game on the Beeb. Not good enough and the powers that be need to get on it ASAP.‘IF YOU had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.” Genghis Khan

Women in bikinis on the TV make people think they are sex objects.

I support women in bikinis in all settings. I question the need to pay hot women to appear in skimpy outfits at male dominated sporting events.

Match doctor is assigned by the 6 nations no? French Doctor on the pitch was telling Nigel it was the knee, but Nigel clarified with the 4th official and asked him to leave

Edit: maybe I’m being overly cynical but I thought it was great spot to go down with a hia by the replacement scrumhalf as it meant a French scrum in a great spot to run down the clock and win a penalty which the French did. He did make sure to hold his head and not his leg after he went down despite the hit being on his chest and the legs colliding. Anyway maybe we’ll never know but the rules are wide open to this sort of abuse so some sort of protection needs to be there if people are caught manipulating a very important safety rule.Last edited by V for Vendetta; 03-02-18, 19:29.‘IF YOU had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.” Genghis Khan

Originally posted by V for Vendetta View PostWell I’d also reference the head butt on Leavy and the no arms tackle on Murray. The 2nd HIA called by the match doctor will be very interesting if the authorities have the balls to investigate it. I don’t disagree with the call on the first as the French doctor was clear in that case.

you're probably right though, he went down and held his head. when you initially see the hit, it could very well have been a clash of heads, but replay shows it clearly wasn't.
Probably cynical in the fact he knew he was hurt but only an HIA could get a replacement back on. The call wasn't his but he gave no choice to the doctor who probably doesn't have (or does he?) the possibility of reviewing the hit. the post match review will be interesting.

The problem with the hia issue is that there is no realistic solution.
If a player says he needs a hia then the doctor must listen, the doctor must in turn tell the referee the player is being removed for a hia, and so a sub is allowed on.
Can't see how we change that. We just need to rely on players not abusing it.
