Thread: The refereeing in Rugby

  1. #1

    The refereeing in Rugby

    Far, far superior to football.

    20 man brawl, ref just lets them get on with it, then calls the 2 captains and says too many involved to pick out indivuals so he’ll let it slide but enoughs enough now, sort your boys out and let’s get on with the game.

    Great refereeing

    Except that VAR was a total waste of time when Wales scored a try there

    TMO judge had a shocker there

    The onfield refs just command respect

    It is high time they enforced the 'only the captain can approach or speak to the ref' rule in football

    Re: The refereeing in Rugby

    It seems like rugby is so much harder to referee than football, yet they do a better job of it!

    That looked a try to me though! You could argue he wasn't in control, but the TMO said the English player touched it down first. He ****ing never!!

    Even Sir Clive thinks it's a try

    Another one of those ones "what if it was at the other end?"

    Having a real go at England fair play. They are so strong at home but they aint lying down. Cant see us coming back though

    Fair play to Wales, had a really good go and if they'd had a little luck could have won it.

    Patchell played well but Halfpenny would have scored 2 pens. If my auntie etc...

    Disappointing but enjoyable game nonetheless.

    Handling errors the difference there, played a very strong last 20.

    Good game and a deserved losing bonus point. 6 points from those first two games, expected to get between 1 and 4 I guess so a good return.

    why get a bonus point for losing and not scoring a try?

    And Rob Andrew,Alfie looked good.

    Re: The refereeing in Rugby

    I didn't think patchell played very well. His kicking out of the hands was poor. Thought we looked much better with Anscombe at 10.

    Good effort though. They got the TMO decision wrong 100%

    I think there should be 3 bonus points for being ugly , Wales would start each game at least 9 nil up

    I think it was for "hard lines" in view of the TMO bad decision.

    Didn’t look like he actually grounded the ball though, more like it bounced

    It reminded me of Friday night when the ball kept bouncing off MWL legs

    Considering the all conquering, untouchable, world beating Saes were going to smash our reserves out of sight at their place, it turns out that they're absolutely miles away from where they think are.

    A fairer ref might've seen us beat the Chosen Ones.

    Reminds me of their football team and their media a lot.

    Da iawn Cymru

    Re: The refereeing in Rugby

    I watched the last 20 mins. Mind-numbingly boring. 20/30/40 phases to gain 25 meters.

    The game is a hybrid of Rugby League. Come on Wigan!

    I forgot it was on, we have the netball superleague on Skysportsmix, Lightening V's Wasps, cracking game to be fair

    Yep. They thought they'd stick 20+ points on us, Wales could have won that

    Re: The refereeing in Rugby

    To be fair, the reason rugby players don’t argue with the ref is because most of the players have no idea what’s going on. Much like many of the fans.

    more like ref bottled it just like the tmo did with the try. Farrell should have been sin binned for lunging at Davies on the floor, Anyone noticed when Farrell knocked on in the english 22 when he had 2 welsh players catching him. Seems ref in london dont like the Welsh!!!

    Difference was disgraceful wasted kicking from Gareth Davies. Time and again simply passed possession to England.
