Quote: NickyKiss "Agree that giving the Atkins try was a howler but in fairness it was his only one. I couldn't understand him going up as a try because the evidence clearly proved he'd just guessed.
Thank god the cameras had a view of it or else it would have been given. Atkins is a clown as well for claiming it. It was about as classy as when a cricketer claims a catch he knows has bounced.'"
I don't have a problem with Atkins doing that tbh, it's bad sportsmanship I suppose but he's obviously going to do everything he can to make sure his team wins and it nearly paid off. It's once again a problem with this try/no try bollox.
Hicks did have a good game but I thought our discipline in the second half was excellent so that certainly made his job easier.
