You scored a try from a play the ball that was knocked on,and then the final pass been a mile forward. Minns was literally stood in front of Carney when he passed it.

your breath smells again. your on the decline ,shafted without watts, a good job you played us today otherwise another away loss,12 men or not we carried marsh, your result, but really nothing to shout about from what I saw ,

Bugger,didn`t know we were a one man team.

Re: Good Friday Derby : Fri Mar 30, 2018 6:43 pm  

To win with just 12 players shows that it was the best performance by any away side at your place this season.

6 successive derby defeats, losing after being 20 points up and now still getting beat despite having 73 minutes against 12 men. FC certainly have you in their pocket.

We will see,will be interesting to see how long Watts manages to stay on the field. Don`t get me wrong,great player, but too much of a loose cannon. Only time will tell if you are right.

like shauls pass to the dustman you mean. just thought id mention it on one post ,didn't mean it turning into a ten page thread like other teams do

Re: Good Friday Derby : Fri Mar 30, 2018 6:55 pm  

Just watched it. Talanoa receives a blatant forward pass..ref gives it, Peae loses it, Houghton follows the drop..VR gives it, Quinlan scores..VR disallows it due to "apparant"obstruction that really never was, Shaw touches down..ref disallows it for a forward pass..funny how Talanoas wasn't forward...No wonder we get p****d off!
I am biased, I admit it, but watch it yourself and decide!
All we ask is a fair go.

Re: Good Friday Derby : Fri Mar 30, 2018 7:01 pm  

The obstruction rule is just rubbish. For what it's worth, I would have given Quinlan's try. He runs through a different hole to where Lane was defending.
BUT, it's not the video ref, it's the rule that is the problem. At the time Quinlan receives the ball, Blair makes contact with Lane, and this happens directly in the path between Lane and Quinlan. By the rules of the game, this is obstruction.
I do think it was a harsh decision but by the rules of the game it was the correct one. The obstruction rule is just rubbish (As we found out against Leeds a few weeks ago but I bet no Rovers fans complained about that).
