[QUOTE="psychic duck, post: 499023, member: 48703"] there was a scrum in the first half where Clermont got the shove on and Leinster got the penalty I'm not saying it shouldn't have been a penalty, but I'm sure with lottery that is scrum penalties that another referee would have just looked at the scrum and seen Clermont on top and given them the penalty I think there was another occasion somewhere as well in the match where Clermont got the shove on and weren't awarded the penalty on another day, another referee would have probably awarded Clermont another scrum penalty I think, especially a referee who could have folded under the crowd's pressure the problem being that there was load of Leinster defenders in front of him and it was like from 40 metres out, Healy ran from about 5 to 10 metres out with nobody near him as Kearney had drawn the full back perfectly Zirakashvili is quite some beast in the loose and made some good gainline rumbles when he was on and since you are questioning Zirakashvili's skills in the loose compared to Healy's, just watch this great prop try <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/BTfzUbgsWGA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> [/QUOTE]
