Other Fixtures 18th-20th February 2022

[Scott1]

Didn't see it but any blow to the face with force should be treated same as head!

[Crofty]

Without stating the obvious there is a difference between hurt and concussion surprised he hasn’t broken his nose tbh

Problem is concussion takes time to show, notice how Burns wasn't allowed on the pitch as he needs to have 10min symptom free. I think he should have been checked

We’ll the medics didn’t nor did the physio and their the ones that count. I do see where you come from

So Exeter's medics are as rotten as their ownership then

It's one even you'd call a red, so yeah he should be checked

Good point but there are independent docs at each game who monitor players with head injuries so it’s taken out of the club and players hands

Still in the refs hands though isn't it? Look at the farcical Jack Nowell incident

[Rugbygramps]

Been replaced at half time anyway

[Rugbygramps]

Austin agreeing with Crofty that should have had HIA

[Scott1]

Has he been replaced because of the head issues though? If so and he was played on that's not good at all!

[Bge3095]

Falcons hanging in, great try from the hooker

[OakhamTiger32]

Didn’t see the whole game but just watched Exeter run a good minute off the clock with scrum resets.. really annoys me. Wish the clock would be stopped until the ball is out and away from the scrum

[OakhamTiger32]

Tough on Newcastle to play 55 minutes a man down and to lose by 1pt with almost the last kick of the game (well 2 minutes from FT)

[Scott1]

Does Glentiger from our Superbru league post on here? He's some player! Can't see me catching him for first place

[MCC1964]

Deano is going to be in trouble: ‘…favouritism or they don’t know what they’re doing…’ in reference to the refereeing.

[Ian Cant]

Unlucky Newcastle. I agree about Exeter wasting time( like Bristol v us last and this season) and Christophe should learn from Foley and Barnes who make sure the clock doesn’t start until the scrum half is about to put the ball in.
Newcastle showed great spirit and at half time I expected Exeter to get the bonus point win.
Sale and Gloucester could be the teams to close in on us.
Gloucester again a massively important game.
Cannot see Eddie Jones releasing Heyes or Chessum which could be key.
I think Gloucester missing 5 players to 6 Nations: May has hardly played and the pack is on a par with ours!

[Big Dai]

Deano unhappy with sir and could face sanctions.
