[QUOTE="Peat, post: 615453, member: 42330"] I'd want to rewatch - but I think a ruck had formed there. I think the ball had touched the ground and the reason it came off the ground is that Gilroy was trying to pass it back, which while technically illegal is never really an offence. Could be wrong though. God knows what did happen - but to me, either's that an offence and the threatened yellow card, or not a penalty at all. I'd love to hear Rolland's reasoning, I expect we'd all learn something. Sloppy game. Too many handling and ruck errors and we let them back in. No real answer to their maul. Should have sharpened us up nicely, so hopefully sorta the same again against Montpellier and then we can go for the big one against Leicester. Re - the Second Row/Henderson thing - in the loose Tuohy and Henderson were superior, but I'd have expected more out of our scrum, and the maul wasn't all that. I suspect the second row might have had something to do with that. My views on Henderson's future is well known, so I shan't go into it, but at the moment I don't think Henderson is a top class lock - but I do think he'd be the perfect fit for the Ireland 19 shirt at the moment.
