so he does nothing of the sort, some other shit ref does it for him, and says "oh i talked to him on the phone"

The Gallic Shrug must be a great way to avoid consequences. Two appalling decisions resulting in tries, shrug Le frog, just ref the next game. As coach break your covid bubble and fuck over the entire 6 nations program, c'est la vie, no problems

I have absolutely no problem with the first decision. The ref, other team and crowd shouldn't have to wait for the defenders to finish their conference, rehydrate, receive coaching messages, get their heart rates down and get into position.

French refs need to be banished from rugby. That's atrocious.

How so? Hits his hands then his leg and goes backward into an English player.

It clearly went forward. He dropped it. His own shrug when it was awarded says it all.

Pretty funny to see it happen to England after the lions bullshit though.

I know he he dropped it but it hit his leg and went backwards and then hit an Englishman before it hit the ground. Under the laws of rugby union football I’m pretty sure that’s not a knock on. The issue you’re really complaining about it is the use of a video ref because if there’s no TMO then there’s no way that’s anything but a knock on

At the risk of doing a me ...

... it went forward from his hands and same player didn't catch it = knock on

But I really expect that's been discussed since the weeknd

@junior it went forward. Or was he standing still?

I can’t be assed to check, but it hit the ground closer to English goal line than when it left his hands can we all agree it was forward?

It depends... are knock-ons defined the same way as forward-passes are now?
ie: "forward out of the hands"
If yes - then I can understand the decision.
If not - then I can not.

Nope, I'm pretty sure it's still defined as "towards the opposition's dead ball line"

The critical part of the law, as I read it, is whether the player has "lost possession of the ball" (not "lost control"). If a player drops it they haven't necessarily lost possession (otherwise just about every kick from hand would be a knock on). Posession is defined as "a team or individual in control of the ball or who are attempting to bring it under control". So you could argue that LRZ was still attempting to bring the ball under control at least until it hit his leg, in which case no knock-on.

Having said that, I was pretty surprised it was allowed to stand..

@delicatessen quite a large amount. Huge ego, huge money.

Nowhere near as up it's arse though. More full of shit, well on the better side of an economic ledger, and knows it.

I'm staggered broadcasters actually stick with people like them TBH. They are just so bad at what they do.

That'll be me. Forgot my password, and changed email address, so I figured it was easier to make a new account.

Am I remembered? That's a worry.

There's a dodgy pub near where I live, I rarely go there. But about once a year, after a night out when my mates have gone home and I should too, I wander in on the way home for a couple more drinks and to talk some crap. I have pretty much the same relationship with that pub as this forum.
