Ref seems to want Bristol in the final!

Re: European competitions
Harsh on Bordeaux if they end up losing because of an injury to their 7 who played his heart out. Daft that you're only allowed a sub for HIA or blood.
Re: European competitions
I think the ref is missing so many errors, holding on, coming in from side forward passes etc etc but its made for a very fast exciting game.
Re: European competitions
Strange that Murphy and Adamson have been given the semi finals. They are consistently two of the poorest refs in the pro 14.

Brizz in the final. Very well played - on high power throughout

Re: European competitions
Have to say Bordeaux were unlucky not to win that in normal time. Diabolical refereeing by Murphy...some unbelievable decisions given and a lot missed.
Re: European competitions
Cracking game but I agree with others that both sides really were officiated poorly. I thought Bristol could have switched it up and gone for the match-winning drop goal instead of going for the try in the last few minutes of normal time. It’s a long season and playing a 100 minute game isn’t going to do many favours.
It’ll be interesting if we face them in the final as that means we will play them twice in a short space of time.

Re: European competitions
Bristol under Pat Lam always easy on the eye - for the neutral they produce what is a good advert for 'our' game.

Where did you hear that? EPC website still says tbc: https://www.epcrugby.com/finals/CitizenSmiff wrote: ↑Sat Sep 26, 2020 9:33 amDid not know that, how is that fair! Dozens of empty sports stadiums around the country at the mo and we might have to go and play the final as an away fixture!
