Some of the refereeing is laughable

Can't say I'm surprised - our starting team was pretty poor on paper and then it got worse.

Yet it was the decision making whic lost the game. The players on the pitch could have won that game, they just played the Quins way.

From following this thread I would say we weren't that bad with the team we could put out against the league leaders. Didn't get much from the ref as usual by the sound of it. Exeter were awarded a penalty try for a deliberate knock on unlike us. Was Wardy's try from the maul really held up or was it a TMO decision. It seems harsh to get nothing from that game or did we not deserve a LBP those that saw the game.

Well I for one am hugely surprised to hear that guys like Lewis and Merrick made poor decisions, who would've thought that guys who've done this their entire careers would do it again
oh wait, that's kinda what I mean by "poor on paper" - it's not just how talented they may or may not be, it's also about decision making, discipline, match intelligence, etc

I just don't see other teams repeatedly mess up in the opposition's 22 and find themselves defending their own line 3 consecutive errors later.
Quote:Not before the game, but a one point during the second half I thought that we were going to take it. Basically, when Yarde made the break. I did also think that the tackle on him was high.Quins brixton branch

I didn't see the game, but it sounds like we competed very well and deserved a bonus point

Watched the highlights now. Obviously doesn't give the full picture, but thought Morris showed great pace to score, and was a good finish by Roberts.
I don't understand how their player wasn't penalised for holding on in the build up to Hayter's try.
Disappointing defence from Yarde for one of their tries after Smith got back and made the tackle and Yarde just flopped over so he could get up and score.
Brain dead from Merrick at the end.

You can hear the ref say to Danny that he released the ball, got up and picked it up again. You can't actually see that as the view of the ball is blocked.

Definitely, absolutely did not release the ball, as the ref claimed. Perhaps it should have been reviewed...

As I said at the time, the TMO should be sacked for incompetence. Unless I have it wrong and they're not allowed to bring things to the refs' attention. It was bad enough for Pearce to have made it up, but I suppose refs do make things up when they are a little unsighted.
