Poor refereeing yesterday?

Just have a look at Ireland-Italy 2007.

Agree with Zandman, what comes around goes around.

@ crusaderwood

Anyway, it would be interesting to know. Maybe can PR ask Mr Allen?

@ CYMRU

I like your posts, made in good spirits and always on the positive note.

The Sook started whining around 2005 when he became Clives glove puppet.

BoD - cry me a river.......

Remember the crazy winning try all those years ago v Boks when ref told John Smit to talk to the players, and allowed the quick penalty to be taken? Justice.

When did O'Driscoll become such a whiner? Technically, he may be right, but, as Bud Grant (former Minnesota Vikings coach) once observed: Bad calls happen. If you can't win despite the occasional bad call, you don't deserve to win.

Hope that 'try' doesn't sour relations between our countries as have happy memories with Irish fans in 2005 and 2009.

A tight and grim game where attacking qualities from both sides gone on the wane.

That was not a try, thought the ref was poor to both teams throughout the game as some of his decisions confused me no end. And a clear overlap at the end, bet gallons of the black stuff were spilt !!!!

Although England will deserve to win the Championship...... they will have to earn it next Saturday as your second and backrow row will cause Englands pack some serious headaches and you still have the ability in the backs. Keep the faith.

Poor Ireland have short memories!

I remember Ronan O'Gara scoring a try in 2004 while the ref stopped the official time against the Springboks. What goes around comes around...

Suck it up Sook. At least it's not a RWC QF.

Oh well, players will always play the whistle.

That said, Mr Allan should never officiate at another game.

.......tragic isn't quite the word - no-one died (B Becker).

Nevertheless, it was a heartbreaking incident for Ireland. I could have caught the ball into the stand. A moral victory for Ireland - but they don't show in the record books.

Truly, bad luck, Ireland. Great shame.

On to Twickenham..............another step towards a Slam..................
