Pau vs Tigers - Sat 18 Jan 20

[Jimmy Skitz]

Manu's first big carry of the game, why do we not get him the ball more?

[WhitecapTiger]

Inconsistent pee poor refereeing there...... far too lenient on Pau for repeated infringements, despite him yelling at them, 2m off their line.

What do we have to do to get some parity in decisions?

[kpj tiger]

5m out, 4 Phases, 4 Advantages, no yellow card.......

[OakhamTiger32]

3 offsides in a row with a scrum penalty already being played.. where’s the card? Inconsistent

Agreed how they didn’t get a yellow card warning at least

[OakhamTiger32]

Yes the officials have made some strange calls and missed a few things but we only have ourselves to blame for the scoreboard. Poor kicks to a world class player are only going to end up with one result.. Tigers on the back foot! Poor discipline has cost us too. Need to tighten up second half and get back within 7!

sorry but this simply is not true ,when officials give dodgy Penalties in kick able range and don't bother to check dropped tries then they are responsible for the scoreboard too, Refs aren't Gods, they are not infallible, the problem is they are treated as such.

When a ref shows themselves to be incapable of managing a big time game what happens to them? So far as I can tell its absolutely nothing.

We need to improve yes, especially tackling and Simmons dumb kicking but the ref is certainly not making it easy or did you forget when he call ball is out, Wells tackled the 9 who had his hands on the ball and he gave a penalty for tackling the man without the ball?

If we get a LBP or TBP are we better off than Castres?

if we get both we get a home quarter

Ok yes, now I definitely agree! This ref has been so poor! I was trying really hard not to just slate the officials as that’s often an excuse when we are losing but 4 penalties 5m out in quick succession yet no yellow? Such double standards

[Mark62]

We aren’t helping ourselves but this referee is abject something needs to be done

[Jimmy Skitz]

what the hell was Gigena thinking trying to offload there?

[WhitecapTiger]

That's is the first time in ages I can recall Kalamafoni making decent yards on a run, then we try a miracle (stupid) offload and knock it on ....again....frustrating.

Dan Cole & Greg Bateman on, 52 mins

Beat me to it Jimmy, it's endemic in our play - no-one reads the live play and seem to just go through the motions.

Ben Smith scores Pau's TBP Try

[Scott1]

Away QF it is then, only we could blow a home semi!

[wellstiger]

Playing man in the sin bin against 16.

The sharpest thing about Sir is his haircut.
Agree P poor refereeing.
4 x over white wash justifiably two dis allowed
No yellow as yet against Pau?

[OakhamTiger32]

No try - knock on

[Jimmy Skitz]

try disallowed for the knock on, back to the penalty for offside

[WhitecapTiger]

No try - knock on

Yep, TMO decision, but back for a Pau penalty (surprise surprise) and they kick to the corner
