Good first half for Tigers. We've managed to shut Cardiff down well, and they're just living off scraps that the Ref is giving them. Cardiff have looked good ball in hand, but thankfully we've managed to keep it from them for the most part.

Croft is having a good game, as is Hamilton, Flood, Crane and others. Overall so far so good. Now, if we can only stop giving away penalties - and kick our own - we'll be good.

Can't believe he changed a scrum to a penalty for "come on ref" after offside at the kick off

Replays shows no-one offside in the firstplace

Can't believe the penalty count against us.

Midfield, Hipkiss up wuick for the tackle, two other Tigers players outrucking the 1 Blues player, all the Blues players retreating come in rom an offside position.

Blues penalty for Tigers hands on the floor.

Newby yellow carded but no idea why. There were two Blues players looking at the ball and no other Tigers player in sight - was not a ruck or maul so he was offside in open play :smt017

Its all down to a kicking competition. Thanks to us missing our first 3 kicks at goal, and Alain Rolland penalising Flood for no reason right in front of the posts on the half way line.

Hate to see a game this good reduced to a circus

Penatly kicks:

toss a coin to decide ends then toss to decide who goes first

5 players nominated, dead centre in front of posts on the 22m

If tied after 5 each goes to sudden death



Agree with Iain D - the scrum to penalty, that was totally wrong anyway, may cost us this game
