One of Scotland's top 5 with Russell, DVDM, Tuipulotu, Graham. The missing 2 of those have scuppered Scotland big time. Overall I'm giving Scotland a pass mark in the championship. Shit loss to Italy but it is Italy's historic season. Ropey half vs Wales. Not a great performance vs France but still cheated out of the win. Overall it's a top half finish (probably) in a tournament of brutal competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. I dipped out with about 15 minutes to go. No point watching it when the ref's inconsistency plaus such a huge part in it. Too many games in this 6N have revolved around shitebag refereeing decisions from shitebag referees. I'm just going to look at porn. You know where you are with porn.

Malinga the Swinga Posted March 16 Author Share Posted March 16 Anyone care to explain how the yellow card awarded in Scotland game to Irish guy was allowed to stay a yellow? No mitigation, clearly upright and head to head yet according to officials, it wasn't dangerous. It was a text book example of a red card offence under the rules the sport is played under. Why the **** are these filthy Irish ***** allowed to play under different rules than rest of countries? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was and I also thought that Furlong's should have been awarded. There was downward pressure on the ball and, unless they changed the laws, that should be a try - even though it squirted back. Standard of match officiating has been as bad as I can remember.
