FFS In rugby as was explained to me over the weekend if you go into someone when they have both feet off the ground whilst they are catching the ball its a foul. Is rubgy a non contact sport. It was a clear foul.


Oh really, look your not the voice of fair play you just agree with the ref all the time that is not having a point of view i could probably write an AI bot to replace you first starting 5 phrases

The ref only gets one look
If it happened at the other end people would be saying it was a penalty
The refs aren't actually biased
The fans of every club think that way
Just beacause we were playing $ClubName doesn't mean the referee is biased.

The ref only getting one look is fact! most other things are subject to opinion.

You wrong I don't agree with ref decisions all the time they getting plenty wrong, a lot of time actually.

In fact if you read my posts on this thread I have said I thought it was foul and ref got it wrong

My point is that it is simply too diffcult and I believe the evidence proves that every week,what I do defend all the time is that it is understandable for refs to get decisions wrong under the circumstances.

Refs need help that is clear as day,without that help will always get plenty wrong.
 
For those blaming pants, would you have blamed him if he punched the ball out the area and they scored? I reckon you'd be saying he should've caught it as it was only a midget near him.

Pants has been pants all season but he did really well to pounce on the ball with both hands in this instance and was fouled twice.
 
Yes (with the benefit of replays).

In real time, it didn't appear to be.
 
you know who they are for but you keep sticking up for them :)

There is no doubt some refs are better than others mate,but I honestly think the job is too difficult for just a pair of human eyes,(even with glasses:D)

Evidence proves that every single week,technology has to come in,in some form or the other,mistakes are made too often think we agree on that.

They is no other way to stop these mistakes,if all the refs were replaced the same mistakes would still happen.
 
Most of you lot simply don't know the laws of the game; of course it was a foul, you cannot make contact with a keeper if he has his feet off the ground and the ball in his hands, does not matter if it was weak keeping etc. it was a foul; can't believe how ignorant so many football fans are ( actually when I think about it I can believe it )
