Frog 13 left his feet
No penalty, why?

Thanks. So if I said that the Welsh Captain being sent off means SA and Burger should feel even MORE lucky to have played with 15 - would that be the ball or the man?

"Playing the man" is calling a fellow Gaggerlander a F*(&wit because they happen to have an opposing view to you. Countering a fellow Gaggerlanders argument be arguing facts is OK. Calling a professional player a f*(&^wit because of something he did on the field is OK.

Fantastic defence. A lot of teams would of conceded their with the pressure of knowing your down to 14 with your captain gone. Hope that invigours them more.

 

[Squeak]

How long can 14 welshmen defend like that?

 

[Scotty]

That was a complete joke of a decision. Is the french winger still on the field? Was he faking injury to influence the ref?

A red card for a tip tackle where as burger gets away with nothing at all for purposeful raking if the face.

Not much consistency. Rollaind has possibly ruined the game. Welsh will have to be a lot more conservative now.

I canunderstand the red, it looked very bad live. Still I have gone form being a disinterested viewer to being firmly behind the welsh now. c( just showed 2nd ad for the game while scrum was being set up

 

[Inside Shoulder]

i still think it was the right call. He drove him onto his neck almost, most refs dont have the balls to make the Red card call, but credit too him he made it.

Still I'm not happy cause it ruins Wales chances

True
Roland must have big cajungas

Don't go down the blindside

Stay away from scrums.

Please do this wales!

If I can remember correctly, they did say they were gonna be harsh on spear tackles like that (where the Frenchie basically landed on his neck, and Warburton drove through with the tackle). Don't blame the ref for accurately penalizing something which had the potential to cause a lot of harm.

Whats the scrum rules when a player is sent off, Do the welsh have tp pack 8 in the scrum?

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Hate to think how CardiffBlue is taking this. Wouldn't like to be in the pub with him now.

Nope - just means you are sarcastic and flippant however I agree - I thought Burger's actions were worse as he was seeking to hurt someone.

no

 

[thedubs]

Surely halfpenny should be taking this?

Question of how you see it the frog was not past the horizontal in my view.
Alain roland is to Wales what Bryce Lawrence is to South Africa: but will the Welsh behave as badly?

Pack it in son. We got the message in the other thread.

Warren Gatland you oaf why dont you listen to me next time?! LET HALFPENNY TAKE THE BLEEDING KICKS 40M OUT!
