Agree R2b, the TMO has a lot of +ve's and very few -ve's, the refcam is also an added bonus IMO, this more than justifies the use of technology in the game today, showing all exactly how a ref should control a game. It has made the game more watchable and enjoyable for me, also, I think it has made the game more understandable especialy for  the new audiences, which are growing in size. Win WinWink......Cool

Write your comments here...me too!! Both codes! Also enjoy Ref. cam., Love the banter overheard and the 'rule' bending covert/overt 'efforts' it reveals, then the cries of 'who, me ref.?' Wink

Incidentally, I watched the ladies final this evening, Richmond V Saracens!  Very skilful in my opinion and would give many a junior clubs male side a run for their money! The soft hands ball passing skills were particulary good!

Is it my imagination that the majority of scrums are still fed with a crooked feed from the scrum halves? I was under the impression that the authorities were clamping down on it. By the way, Scotland are showing signs of improvement and are one of the dark horses if not this season but in the future.

I don't think much has changed as far as crooked feeds go. The refs have not controlled this "cheating" for many a year. It's done so blatently these days, infuriates me.Yell

I would not like to see it but as things are at the moment , we might as well have uncontested scrums. Also, players holding on to the ball or kicking it away to prevent a quick tap and go from a penalty should be dealt with. The refs have the power, know it goes on and do nothing at all about it. I also get infuriated at these issues.

When Brian  Moore commentates on matches, he gets well wound up with crooked feeds.
