    Outcome-deciding PT with clock in the red

    No PT for me either. potentially YCs but nothing there to say a try would probably be scored.

    50-22

    Interesting call in the Toulouse Harlequins game. Lynagh kicked a 50-22. Contact with the ball was clearly beyond halfway but his standing foot was possibly in his own half. French TV didn't like it as the replayed it Numerous time unike the kick chase where Kinghorn was probably ahead of the...

    Restarting the second half with a penalty.

    Interesting. Had a discussion Saturday with a couple of colleagues at a club match. The home team, 2XV went into the changing rooms at Half time without discussing this with the ref or visiting team. One of the guys recalled an old school ref many years ago dragging a team back out and...

    Great if they are working. not necessarily a good opportunity. Depends of the kit, open mic, or press to talk from AR. press to talk can be awkward as you fiddle for the button but open mic can be just white noise. I've experienced them twice this season and both times people struggled to keep...

    4th official for the on/off/on/off/on Cumbria Cup Final Carlisle v Penrith at Aspatria. I think Penrith have made it without playing a game, then Carlisle couldn't field a team on the proposed/rearranged date due to a club stag do on what they thought was a blank Saturday so Penrith were going...

    Orange Card?

    Has anyone heard of or experienced use of the Orange card? I Was at an RFU run seminar a few weeks ago and the subject came up that abuse of match officials is creeping into our game. Somebody mentioned there had been a trial in the Gloucester, maybe, grass roots area where refs could “issue”...

    Only 1 friendly and an U18 game on over the whole Easter weekend in Cumbria. In days gone by there would be multiple touring games on. I guess those days are long gone. Anyway off up on the train today to watch the RL derby Whitehaven v Barrow. Should be a good day out if the weather holds!

    So when is Rassie Erasmus gong to get sanctioned for coaching on the field?

    Did the TMO give it or the ref? seemed to be a bit of a delay. Either way it was a dumb tackle.

    Nowhere for the foreseeable future! Just had an Appointment with specialist . 10 weeks in, still not healed! I wouldn't wish a "jones fracture" of the fifth metatarsal on anyone, very frustrating. Another 6 weeks like this then maybe on to the waiting list for an operation to pin it with six...

    Professional Truck and Trailer

    wow, pretty much everything Illegal. Even the commentator says so and then says but you'll get away with it! What he should have said was you'll get away with it at elite level as referees, coaches and players completely ignore the laws of the game. So easy to spot too.

    Offside after a kick Bath vs Gloucester

    I did like the fact that Finn Russel regularly took the p*ss out of the current Law and just stood there and even threw a few dummies trying to draw the french offside.
