Disgraceful performance from him today. He should be stood down from the panel after this along with the token female tmo.
How many knock ons or forward passes did they miss. 3 of England's tries shouldn't have been allowed. If it was any other team that it went against, there would be uproar. But it's only Italy so no one gives a fuck.
Scotland don't do refs!

Maybe give me an opinion about today's game instead of telling me to fuck off. It was a disgraceful performance by the refs and should be called out. It's only Italy tho eh?
You English? Not like you are gonna be too upset about it if so.

Get fucked.

Get doubly fucked for calling the TMO a token. I don't particularly rate her, but she's no worse than many others who get to fill the role. Definitely not a token.

Joy Neville is a great ref, calling her a token is pathetic. When she's on a Pro14 game I'm looking forward to a good contest. Mike Adamson isn't a good ref to be fair.

Ok maybe calling her a token wasn't a wise choice ,but in this day and age it's hard not to have that view.
I'm Irish. I've seen her ref. She is not that great a ref and an even worse tmo.
Anyway, the point being, Adamson was shocking today and shouldn't ref a top international again untill he sorts his shit out.
First English try was a obvious knock on. I called it as it happened. Couldn't believe it wasn't called back.
Second English try, the Italian sealed off for maybe 1 or 2 seconds. This shit happens constantly and it happened in this game also in other instances which wasn't called.
Mays try was a jump of the tackle and dangerous.
But whatever about the tries, he missed 4 or 5 forward passes at least.

I have had a few problems with a few of Joy Neville's decisions, for some reason it always coincides with Edinburgh games when I question her.

She is a whole lot better than most of her male counterparts.

I don't think Adamson is any worse than any of the other Pro14 refs, which may not be saying a lot, tbf

forward pass, knock on , drop balls... This referee was as blind as a bat, he was the fist Scotland ref in 19 years to ref a 6Natins c game, and he might very well be the last lol

Listen, it's bad enough that you beat the English last week and got them all riled up, but then you go and send this clown to referee!

"It was only a couple of seconds so should have been ignored" - lol

"I think may was dangerous so the laws should be different, which means it was illegal" - lol

"4 or 5 forward passes at least" - lol

I admit that I don't really understand the laws about what constitutes a dive for the line. But I don't see how jumping over a tackle can be legal in some parts of the pitch and not others. If the tackler had taken him out would he have been sent off for taking the player out in the air?

There are a few incidents that are refereed differently in different areas of the field, especially the so-called red zone - a deliberate knock on can be a yellow card and a penalty try in that area or just a penalty further out.

May was within his rights to jump as he did, surely no one would want to take that spectacular finish out of the game?

Spectacular doesn’t matter. It is dangerous and against the laws.

This. Although refs seem to pick and choose when and where they deign to apply certain laws.

Adamson had a shaky start but settled well in the second half. The biggest question would be regarding the lack of help her got from his assistants who appeared to be asleep most of the game.
