Re: The Official English Rugby Thread
Jesus Christ I can’t believe Toga is still on about this 😂
All I did was post up the most egregious forward pass that was dismissed as fine by a referee and TMO that you'll likely ever see.

That's shocking luck for Saints.
We might see Pollock in the backs at this rate.

Coles got away with some walking on his knees before scoring that try.

Re: 2024/2025 Not Heineken Cup
Beheading?
The Georgian Lyon winger should have made a meal of it (not that I'd blame him if he did as it was a massive headbutt) then it would have been a red. I know that makes rugby like football but if referees won't referee then that's what will happen.

It cancelled out the very obvious penalty try for a tackle in the air that Pearce weirdly talked himself out of earlier. That and giving saracens extraordinary latitude in the ruck on the line, and all of the forward passes that were missed in previous tries. Pearce had a bad day at the office all ...

Re: The Official English Rugby Thread
One could look at that late Saints score and simply consider it's a two man tackle that doesn't stop the ball getting offloaded, and so you'd want a word with two players wasting resources in defence, addressing that which you can control. Or you could blame the ref.
Laugh and the world laughs ...

Saracens losing away at Newcastle is really coming back to bite Saracens in the arse. Add in the points lost from the inconceivable home loss to Quins and Saracens would now have enough points to be favourites for a home semi.
