The Magic Rat:
It was very unlikely we would have scored, but according to Arthurs presser the reason to clock ran down at the end was because the ref was telling us that we only had 5 in the scrum and not 6. Forgetting he had sin binned Palasia 5 minutes earlier
A very measured presser from BA. I really like his approach. There's some things for us to work on, but we are improving game on game. For the first time in a.long while I can see the results of what we do in training on game day.
But in that presser, quite a telling quote. "They put us down to 12. They should know the rules (around the scrum)". Refs interpretation is one thing, but either not knowing the rules, or failing to apply them, is another thing entirely. I expect the club to raise formally. Grant has form, e.g. Hull/Leigh.
