Immediate reaction? After a moment or two's thought?

Away at Howick may account for (but not excuse) opposition's reaction. Ayr won 15-21.

Backwards(?)

Backwards(?)

1 I didn't think it was a C&O knock on either
2 it's often damp in Scotland Carlin - get used to it
3 nice finish though

3 nice finish though

Shocking finish - nice build-up.

Backwards, but in real life, if they drop the ball over the try line, aren't you going to give a knock on?

If ever there was a case for holding the ball with two hands, that is it.

What a plonker!

However, the reaction of the opposition should be condemned as well.

Shocking finish - nice build-up.

No, I'm ignoring the grounding.

My use of "Finish" describes the footskills show to get over the line. Similarly a commentator that describes a marathon runner producing a 'great finish' isn't actually describing the mere stride at the breaking of the tape.

Only if it is knocked on, otherwise it's a critical error.

Why isn't he in Hong Kong for the 7s?

 

[MrQeu]

I believe that once the USA7s are not relegated they led him try pursuit his dream of playing XVs and also get some quality XVs playing time ahead of RWC2015

So why did he go to Scotland?

 

[Stuartg]

Why not give a penalty on the 5m against Hawick for their disgraceful behaviour?

So why did he go to Scotland?

they were willing to pay more than an NFL practice squad

Perhaps he wanted to be closer to his brothers Shetland and Orkney - arf arf!
