Re: 2024/2025 Not Heineken Cup
I think Hollie has bottled it, there definitely seems to be a directive for refs to not give a red - that was as clear cut as it gets
Massively so but it's not just on her. Adamson agreed with her.
I suppose we know he's shite though.
I don't think she gave him much room to do anything ...
