I think it’s pretty much a boreathon now to be honest. I’ve just caught the end of the Quins game - mainly because I saw Josh was on the wing which felt weird and sickening at the same time.
Charlie Matthews took out Irish’s Van Rensburg in the air when Van Rensburg had just caught the ball. Penalty and either a red or yellow, but CMK deemed it a ‘fair challenge’ and the ever inept Hodent as TMO agreed. The commentators were gobsmacked and didn’t hold back. Irish lead by three points at the time and that would have won the game, but instead the play on allowed Quins to score a last play try.
Having watched Exeter v Quins a few weeks back when we were still in existence, the Chief’s defence was clearly offside for most of the game and wasn’t pulled up once.
The standard of officialling this season has been a step down from previous years, and another thing that when thrown into the mix will is further eroding the quality of the Prem.
