Just throwing it out there for any "Offside"/"Forward" nutters who may read.

Terry Albert certainly walked us in a fair bit....poor 10 for both sides.

I think refs have given up picking up anything this season. Forward passes, knock ons (we got away with at least three this match), offsides, chicken wings, turkey legs, whatever.

Why bother? Maybe we should just turn it into Aussie rules or Gaelic mayhem instead.

I always prefer to win honestly. Although I'm not complaining at the missed offsides and knock-ons (obviously, since we won), I'd rather us win cleanly than because the refs can no longer be arsed. It's then down to our ability rather than their unwillingness to be arsed.

Having said that. I don't want the whistle happy obsessives of last season either!

No pleasing me.

Generally speaking, doesn't Thierry Alibert hold a big ten? I think refs are also being slightly lenient on ALL teams today as they realise how drained the players must be.
Both sides got the same treatment IMO, speaking from a neutral POV.
