I don’t believe there’s any requirement for the tackler to be on his feet.

Scrum is a serious problem. We’re going to get penalised at every single scrum. Referee apologised to the Lions captain for awarding a penalty to us. Need to avoid them at all costs.

Officials seem to be missing several obvious forward passes thus far.

Okay. I was under the impression that if you’re on the ground you’re out of the game.

I could be wrong but I think the penalty count is 7-0

Crooked line out to the Lions there and no problem for them. The officials are missing so much this evening.

Poor enough performance again. Scrum getting killed, plenty of unforced errors and when we did manage to get onto their line we threw a feckin intercept.

This is a good test as they’re game.

Impressed with Joe McCarthy. His close carrying from the base is a strength.

I think it was 6-1 at this point, we got a penalty off the second scrum in the game. It’s 8-2 now.

Some mixed bag of a performance so far.
Definitely on wrong side of the referee.

Ah yeah, forgot that. He appears to be only reffing the team playing against the wind. Hope that continues

Yeah he has been excellent. Some great carries as well as the usual grunt work and a lineout steal too.

That’s the sort of magical thinking we should encourage on this MB!

Trying to remember when I last saw a worse ref. Hard to think of any?
