    So Clancy tells him what happened and he ignores him?

    Wow, totally disagree with that one


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,836 ✭✭✭BigCon


    Why was that not a try?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,221 ✭✭✭crisco10


    It was more sideways pressure than downward pressure....sort of squirted out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    Don't think that was as clear cut a try as Shane Williams thinks.

    Not sure that was enough control on the downward pressure but seen them given


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,239 ✭✭✭✭Hurrache


    "Not been clearly grounded", what was that TMO looking at.

    Don't need control on the downward pressure, that's a rugby league thing.

    Sounds about right!

    Wales were absolutely robbed there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,148 ✭✭✭letowski


    No way did Anscombe get pressure there, he flapped at it, right call.

    Npt clearly grounded seems a fair call.


  • Registered Users Posts: 589 ✭✭✭baas baa


    Anyone hear the TMO come in to tell Garces the penalty count.


  • Subscribers Posts: 41,822 ✭✭✭✭sydthebeat


    Owen farrell has turned into the almost complete 12


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,452 ✭✭✭✭ednwireland


    Looked like he slapped it away definitely no control


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,479 ✭✭✭Dick phelan


    Terrible call is the TMO blind England did not get there first.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,030 ✭✭✭Minderbinder


    If that was Italy they’d have given the try. As it is, it seems like the right decision.

    Not robbed, let's be fair here. Seen them given but really he flopped a hand at it.

    Yep agree with you.

    When grounding a loose ball the player has to press down on the ball. While he did try it wasn't a press down in this case.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,154 ✭✭✭✭Neil3030


    England chipping the ball a lot against Wales's rush defense - I wonder if they'll do similar against us.

    If we play with 13 in the line then almost certainly.
    More reason to have Kearney there.

    Id expect Joe will be watching this intently though, and the positions there are chipping in.... Our blindside wingers will need to be on their toes

    Honestly speaking that looked like downward pressure to me. Try all day long from my point of view. I may be mistaken, but was the TMO's reason for not awarding it that England got there first? Seems a crazy call to me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3 Irishstallion


    Ref is awful.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    If Patchell is turning down kick from there, England will be delighted to keep on giving them away.

    Verabatim, the TMO said "Not clearly grounded".

    Fair enough then I stand corrected. Dunno why I thought at the time the officials said England grounded the ball first .
