Re: Ulster ‘A’ v Leinster ‘A’ Fri 15th Jan 3pm KO Live on BBC iPlayer and BBC Sport NI website
Leinster were indeed offside a lot. What was pleasing was Ulster joined them. Sick of seeing Ulster sides continuing to play by the rules when it's clear they are not being enforced.

Re: Leinster v Ulster Fri Jan 8th 7:35pm KO
When i was playing, might have been a a bit before you Captain with maybe an overlap,head injuries were few and far between and usually due to players getting their head in front of the ball carriers legs ... With apologies to anyone who has you -know-who on ignore. I was once told by someone (who ...

Re: Leinster v Ulster Fri Jan 8th 7:35pm KO
:D But therein lies the problem - you are responsible for applying the laws (and additional memos, appendices and frameworks) as currently interpreted by the IRB; not the laws as actually written. Were you to do the latter, the players would not know what to do. Now you're just being silly. He's res...

Re: Leinster v Ulster Fri Jan 8th 7:35pm KO
But come Saturday or Sunday, when I'm standing in middle of the pitch with my whistle: opinions,conjecture, bugbears et al have no place. I'm then an arbiter of the laws. But therein lies the problem - you are responsible for applying the laws (and additional memos, appendices and frameworks) as cu...

Re: Leinster v Ulster Fri Jan 8th 7:35pm KO
Also when lifting at lineouts was eventually made legal, they specifically said that lifters had the responsibility to bring their teammates safely to earth. Should have been a penalty to Ulster in the first half.

Re: Leinster v Ulster Fri Jan 8th 7:35pm KO
When I played, both of those were offences and were strictly applied. The first was deemed to be illegally preventing a fair tackle, the second was dangerous play towards a tackler. I confess I never read the laws, but that was drummed into us even at school and whether in the laws or not was certa...

Re: Ulster v Munster Sat Jan 2 5:15pm KO
I doubt they will revert to original format. Maybe just play a Rainbow cup without the SA's. If it weren't all about maximising revenue, we'd just play whatever friendlies we could cobble together after a few phone calls on a Wednesday evening and hope that there can be some reasonable competition p...

Re: drop goals
Even the traditional to last minute, game-snatching DG (or extra-time, cup snatching) has become less attractive. So many penalties can be 'won'/milked from breakdowns (or even open play) and with the referees' bias towards the team in possession another phase becomes more attractive. Additionally t...

Re: drop goals
When you factor in how many DGs were taken while playing advantage (a tactic I never fully understood), the recent scarcity of DG attempts is perhaps explained by the trend to play territorial defence dominated rugby and low-risk phase play in attack, only unleashing the attacking skills of your bac...

Anyone wanting to watch the game on Rugbai Bro at 10pm - BE ADVISED - they've swapped coverage around. It's on NOW.

RCT accepting that HEC20/21 is a waste of time and prefer to keep their players available for T14?
