The one that was clearly held up?

Quote: Don Brennan "He must have forgot about that when he disallowed Emmitts try.'"


This is where Ian Smith has decided to use the "2 wrongs make a right" card. Emmitts try looked OK and he must have realised that after the "no try button" so he,s just evened it up with Roby's "no try" is a try.

Noticed this is creeping into the game a bit more with referees, they make a few "howlers" in a match then find a way of rewarding a penalty or a try in compensation.

But to do it in a televised game is suicidal in Ian Smiths case.

Quote: Gaslight "Yes it did, the ball hit the ground and a split second later Watts gets a finger nail on the ball, it's a knock on you're just the single most biassed idiot there is, if it isn't telling fans not to bother going to your dump if they want to stand up it's thinking a clear knock on by one of your players is a try. It really is pointless even trying to use logic with you because you don't have the mental capacity (or just plain refuse to want to believe) facts.'"
I guess after rewatching it you will now agree you are wrong ergo you are talking out of you anus

Quote: Harrigan "Difference is Bill Harrigan stood himself down. Can you see Smith walking in and saying... I think you should drop me? I think not.'"


He didn't really, he got stood down by Finch, he just admitted he screwed up and deserved to be stood down rather than pretending he was right when everyone else thought he needed a white stick. It is true that Cummins is loathe to criticise bad referreing, to the extent where he'll appear contrarian in his support for bad calls, so we're far less likely to see anybody stood down in the UK.

Not only has Ian Smith not stood himself down, he's got the Video Referee's job for Wembley. You could not make it up.

If Cummings had anything at all about him then Smith's blatant error would ensure he was at least stood down for the showpiece game of the year.

But then who does Cummings answer to ?
