16 man Ospreys v Leicester incident

Little if no advantage was gained by Osprays having 16 men on the field. The time period the player that 16 players were on the field was minimal. Small fine would easily compensate.[/b]

I agree with the assessment of the punishment, however Byrne was involved in play; He made a tackle on Youngs in what could have been a breakaway try. Every event affects the outcome of the game.
 
Let's not get stupid here.

In past incidences there has been no replay ... FACT!!! Therefore the likely outcome is a fine.

Ospreys will also counter argue that at one point the Tigers fielded an extra man.
 
Isn't that a rag with the reporting prowess of The Mirror, only exchanging pro-socialist opinions for pro-Welsh opinions?

It has no credibility at all but somehow still gets stories amazingly correct!

Was mentioned in the Wales on Sunday.

Supposedly one of the touch judges said that at some point Leicester had also had 16 men.

I can't see Leicester getting their replay, there is no precedent for a replay and their own head coach has publicly said it didn't make a difference to the result.
