I noticed that. And some folk on social media suggested that warrants being killed?

the trolling is pure misogyny. A scourge of society and a disgrace to any who fail to condemn it. I’m disgusted by it in the same way I’m disgusted...

There are two questions 1 did she do a decent set of interviews? I thought they were OK. 2 does anyone deserve the abuse she got on twitter ? ...

I always thought it was odd in American/Gridiron Football that you are allowed and sometimes encouraged to run out of bounds and retain possession of...

The ball was knock back with respect to white.

No have to disagree with that, at 27:10 the Welsh scrum half has already got his hands on the ball and then the Welsh counter ruck he is left outside...

i think the key question is whether a male pundit would have had the same level of abuse. if they would have, then i can understand the argument...

Sounds just like any meeting when a video is shown! Completely miss the point of the video and focus on something else ;) Which I think is the...

apparently there are a few seconds of video where he is not clapping the Welsh

What?

Just looking at the videos, in the laws. In the first one Scotland v USA, is the knock on even in shot? There is a lot of time spent watching Hogg...

i think you are right, and we have to make sense of it from the text - this CANNOT turn on the presence or absence of a comma!

Agreed, I said "not entirely hers" meaning she shares the blame with others :) I understood wghat tyou meant :-) My point being I can be your...

Agreed, I said "not entirely hers" meaning she shares the blame with others :) I've not seen the abuse, only that she found it unacceptable....

I don't think so. If in the first case the player loses possession of the ball and it goes forward, but they catch it before it hits the ground, it's...

althouhg jz558 has got me genuinely wondering now if the AND is only supposed to be to the last one !

i think actually she poked the cobra, the cobra ignored her - or perhaps we heard the tiniest of hisses - and then she got completely roasted on...

And what is wrong with showing emotion and that prompting support from her employer and the RFU for the unacceptable abuse? Just because no-one else...

Excellent post. Prehaps rather then the "if you can't stand the heat..." tueism a better on e here might be "if you poke the Cobra don't be...

You read the law in conjunction with the definitions. In fairnes you always include the definitions in the specific laws although he it certainly...

I don't think you can think of this in isolation. There is a growing feeling coming from sport (and elsewhere) that the abuse on social media needs...

Actually that is the definition not the law. If you foolishly go to law 11 looking for enlightenment you find none. I think we all agree that...

If it had happened on halfway and after the ball went back from the leg followed by an England knock on in trying to retrieve the loose ball, what...

I think you have proved my point as you have misunderstood the Law ! The law is actually (my line breask Knock-on: When a player loses...

agreed - also an odd part of our game, So we have found ourselves in a position where we have constructed a game where very often the winning...

You might have just demonstrated that it isn't clear! The ball touching the ground or another player applies to all three cases - which I think is...

Id suggest that at times for defensive reset reasons this still happens in football and hockey (not that ive played hocley for decades!) didds

no you don't :biggrin:

surely she has peronal professional integrity? And "Only following orders" is no excuse. didds

that's exactly what I think the reasoning was. If a player did similar over the goal line (made continual contact with the ball with his hand...
