Champions Cup 24/25 - Saturday, 24 May

[IT157]

That looked a touch forward

It looked miles forward. Thank God it was called off.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Definitely feels like the floodgates might open later on

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

That was a clear YC

Hutchinson is massively underrated by Scotland I feel

 

[Rinkadink]

Might want to look at law 13. Players on ground in open play are not considered part of the game.

Cool.

That means it's impossible to commit an act of foul play to a player on the ground who isn't part of a ruck? Why hasn't anyone thought of that before. Drag a person (who is no longer an opponent) out and give them a good kicking. Completely unpunishable as they're on the ground.

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

That’s really just an insane response.

But watch the scrum halves in any game and they'll jump over players on the ground around 10 times. Do you want penalties called on that?

 

[Rinkadink]

No, obviously you can't punch a player on the ground

[TommiG88]

That isn’t a knock on, yet Smith’s was

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Jesus I love seeing snake hips in rugby

It’s clearly not I distinctly remember Nathan Hughes at Wasps getting done for kicking a player in the face who was holding onto his foot, the player was lying in the ground by your logic there was nothing to see.

 

[General Melchett]

Jalibert outrageous sidestepping

 

[McTallshort]

Gotta make those tackles Saints

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Insane agility

 

[AngloScotsHybrid]

The ref doesn't know what a forward pass is.

god bless you

 

[IT157]

This is going so bad for Saints. UBB look like they are going to score every time they are in Northampton's half

 

[McTallshort]

Saints at 6s and 7s

 

[Reiser99]

The injuries pre-game and the two now have completely disrupted Saints. Bordeaux meanwhile have the same team as the semis and a full bench. I feel that this will get ugly by the end. Still, come on Saints!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Taking the **** with the curve on that

 

[Rinkadink]

That's really just an insane response

Nice editing bruh.

Yes. Your argument that as an opponent on the floor is no longer considered part of the game, therefore there can be no acts of foul or dangerous play or any kind of refereeing regarding the previous opponent is pretty insane.

Stop creating straw men. Clear as day in the laws there are provisions for dangerous/reckless play, including jumping over an opponent. The reason why your stupid scrum half argument falls to pieces simply boils down to the action of the scrum half generally not being dangerous or reckless when they "jump".

 

[McTallshort]

Oh FFS it wasn't a penalty move ******* on
