Ref is a joke, invented a knock on rule which doesn't exist to prevent a try and that tip tackle was clearly past the horizontal and should have been a yellow. Cost us 10 points. He's also calling maul instantly when a player is tackled standing up which really isn't helping the game flow, players are scared to take it into contact. He's got absolutely no idea in the scrums.

Playing ok, they are rushing up very quickly in defence - look offside a lot - and we are struggling to get over the gain line or get the ball wide enough. Winning the breakdown battle and maul defence is excellent. Gareth Davies struggles in these conditions when pressure is put on his kicking game. Aled is better suited and i expect him to come on after 55 mins or so.

I worry about our passing out wide, we look very susceptible to interceptions, need to keep it a bit tighter.

Work to do but looking ok at the moment, need to turn that territory into points.

Wilkinson is without doubt one of the most unpredictable officials in the league, there are some far better less experienced officials about now. It's about time some of the older officials are reassessed and removed.

Good summary and agree with comments.
We have had most of the play so need to score early 2nd half.

I think the ref got both calls right
Hadleigh knocked it forward in the first movement and never once held on to it and "....A knock-on occurs when the ball hits the hand or arm and goes forward, and the ball touches the ground or another player before the original player can catch it. "
Unusually, due to Hadleigh's great juggling skills, the next player to touch it was a Scarlets player. Freaky but correct.

Yes, my wife asked if the commentary was in Italian (which I would have understood), but it was a fair question..Smile
