very happy with a yellow here, couldn't be anymore unsporting if he tried

His judgement of the situation was badly wrong. I think he was looking for a cheap leeds yellow after a big ask for a different 2nd yellow moments before (which he got right). Really good looking young ref, I'm sure he'll learn

100% he does Think it's a pretty poor decision too, not a great moment

Tierney 100% put himself there intentionally Chelsea have done similar huddles which prompted some discontent from the oppo so he was trying to avoid that

Chelsea have been doing pre match huddles on the centre circle recently which caused a bit of discontent...I guess this was an attempt to stop it

The names Tierney, Paul Tierney

Outstanding Good to see consistency is applied... For what it's worth I think it should be no, yes, no...

No Yes (evidently) No Oh wait I'm confused by the question?!

Think 'plenty' isn't right, there's 'some' I'll agree too, but he still definitely getting a header on goal from 6/8 yards out Do we just think that headers are a more difficult skill to get right (which I agree they are)?

He's surely going to head the ball, at which point it has to be dogso yeah?

What more is needed for the 2nd pen to be dogso?

I don't think it was a red on review

Well aware of the situation and background, I was at both games

I don't buy it There wasn't a player down injured and both teams took the opportunity to 'have a chat' There was a message on the screen and this sort of stoppage has happened unofficially for several seasons without issue

Even if anyone at the ground thought that initially, it took maybe 10 seconds to realise what was going on. Boos were audible for ages, disingenuous to blame 'a team talk'.

what's rugby's approach here? every break down / ruck / maul / scrum generally has an offence if the ref looks hard enough, how and why do they penalise certain offences but not others...

i was at the game, while it may have taken a few seconds to realise what was going on and why, the boo's only got louder. the pen, not for me. the stamp, reminded me of rooney v portugal in 2006...probably a lucky boy

Exactly why I advocate for a simulation discipline panel applicable to every challenge on the pitch. Would irradicate this nonsense overnight

It's onlt factual if you can determine without doubt it hit the arm - this one was likely handball but can't say for sure

Strongly agree with this
