Sam Warburton has retired from rugby at 29. Repeated injuries seem to have taken their toll on him. Thankfully Wales seem to have plenty of 7s to replace him.

Are there any good refs apart from Nigel Owens? JP Doyle is giving a masterclass of making poo poo up as he goes along in the Lyon-Blues game.

bessantj posted:I dunno but this reffing of the Blues is a bit of a disgrace. He's all over the place. The Lyon winger blatantly slapped the ball out play with the back of his hand to prevent a Blues try, but Doyle decided "he was clearly going for the ball". Quite how he'd catch it with the back of his hand is beyond me.

Cardiff are 2 tries down against Glasgow after 4 minutes. I think the clashing shirts are confusing the Blues so they are forgetting to tackle them. Edit: Reffing the offside line is not important today apparently stavros880 fucked around with this message at 16:04 on Oct 21, 2018 |

Being a nerd and checking out the current Wales squad on Wikipedia: 39 Players, 30 born in Wales, 9 born outside Wales. The 9 being: Welsh parent(s) and grew up in Wales Dan Lydiate - born England, moved to wales age 4, mother Welsh Ross Moriarty - born England, moved to Wales age 2 (I think), Father welsh (and former Wales international) Jonathan Davies - born England, moved as a child, both parents Welsh George North - born England, moved to Wales age 2, Mother Welsh Welsh parent and grew up abroad Jake Ball - born England, Father welsh Gareth Anscombe - born NZ, mother Welsh Welsh grandparent(s), grew up abroad Tomas Francis - born england, grandmother Welsh Jonah Holmes - born England, grandparents Welsh Residency Hadleigh Parkes - born NZ Personally I think the residency requirements should be lengthened (5 years? at least for top ten nations), and the grandparents rules either eliminated or changed. e.g. change to 5 years residency, shortened to 3 if a grandparent is from the country.

HappyCamperGL posted:That was seriously loving retarded that pass. Worse than Anscombe's against Ireland last year No idea how we won this game. It was a weird, oddly compelling combination of Wales being poo poo, France (mostly) playing well and Wayne Barnes doing whatever the hell that was for 80 minutes.

Ireland need this break to calm down and regroup. They're losing their heads now. I can see Sexton getting a talking to from the ref if he carries on like this The same goes for Moriarty. There's a good chance he's going to lose his hit in the second half and lamp someone goatface posted:Hah, that "gently caress off!" from Sexton when he saw the penalty call. I know all players complain when they get a scrum penalty called against them, but the Irish loosehead clearly wasn't bound and hand his hand on the floor to support himself. It was hardly controversial.

Rob Howley has been sent home from Japan after allegedly breaking rules on gambling on rugby matches. He's been replaced in Japan by Stephen Jones. Any chance our attack will get better now someone else is in charge of that area?
