   We did Ken and Cawdor did but he ignored there claims, remember Ospreys home when Alun Wyn was in Owens face on a disallowed try for a Jake Ball knock on straight upstairs and try cancelled out,Alun Wyn not even Captain .

In fairness he had a good go, as nigel walks to give the try ken is telling him about the hands in the ruck (same phase from ruck to try so could have gone back) and nigel has none of it. Ken threw the ball away in frustration

stop being such a drama queen, you can comment on ken poor decision making without comments like "some one lend him a brain cell" which is both insulting and in bad taste
 
TBH that call would have come from the coaches anyhow
 
By all means criticise just don't make personal or crass comments
 
btw who else is there to captain the side? parkes is out of form , foxy would be the shout I suppose

Ken may have made decisions that people disagree with, but to question whether a hugely committed scarlet, a current Welsh international, and British Lion, lacks a brain, is insulting to the man.

Form is temporary, but class, or lack of it,is permanent.

The guy oozes class and commitment.
Go ahead..........Take those banana's

How does Nigel defend his discriminatory treatment between teams and captains, or indeed, non-captains?

Too late now I know, but the Club can raise issues with the referee in the week following the game. 

They should raise this with NO and include a video clip of said incident, and see what his response is. I believe that they can then take it Greg Garner should they so wish. 

May make NO listen to Ken next time !

I sit the other side of the ground so did not hear these exchanges. Bearing in mind his many previous cock ups at PyS, Lee Byrne's try being one, I am surprised that Nigel isn't a little more circumspect these days. He should reflect on, and learn from previous mistakes.

The other thing being as they spent a fair bit of time on the in touch decision, he might have thought would take too long to look at the hands as well.

I haven't seen a replay of the incident. (I saw the game live; that was enough) but was it an illegal steal by Josh Turnbull?

Oh absolutely, hands in the ruck tapped it out the side and the move went from there

Well, it wouldn't be proper game reffed by Nigel if there was not some controversy.

Yep. When the TMO was involved I assumed it was to review the "turnover"
