the video ref in Wales v Scotland gave a try when quite clearly Shane Williams foot had touched the white wash with a puff of smoke rising
Ok game was over,but a poor show for Union video refs

I saw that too, Loz. He was disgracefully hasty in awarding the try. I think he was scared of ruining what little running rugby there was on show. |

They keep stopping it on the replays after the foot hit the line, but I've a feeling he also hit the flag before touching down. |

How on earth could the ref give Ireland a penalty try today? fair enough France were slowing it down in the scrum but surely you show someone yellow card instead of awarding a penalty try from 5 yards out ?

Lucky lucky England,played well in the first half but Italy dominated the play the second half,if the game had gone on another 5 minutes then they would have lost yet again.

I'd had a drink yesterday, but I could swear I saw Dame Jonny displaying a bit of rugby skill, other than kicking a penalty or drop goal or conversion?
Had I had a bit more alcohol than I thought?

Last paragraph of that article:
"Ultimately, we want the game to be easier to play, coach, and referee - and easier for fans to watch," said O'Brien.
What will this mean for all the Yawnion morons and their proud boasts of it being superior because it's 'more technical game'? |

I thought that rubbish about being a technical game went out the window When League players who had never played union counted the day until they made the international union sides.

There's a rugby survey rlhererl.
Although it's being ran by the RFU, there's nothing saying that it's about union, so please feel free to give your opinion on the changes in rugby over the past ten years.

Apart from the fact that it's being run by the RFU.  |

But they don't say it's only about union. Perhaps they're engaging in wider market research? Who are we to assume that they would arrogantly try to twist the word "rugby" to mean their particular version?
(although the question about the rugby ethos being affected by the today's general decline in moral values does perhaps give it away)
