A bizarre end to the rugby

As rugby matches go France v Wales in the 2017 Six Nations is set to become a great list of pub quiz questions.
Name the player who was shown a yellow card with the match clock in the red and still served his 10-minute suspension and came back on to complete the match? Answer: Wales' Samson Lee.
And how about: What was the time on the match clock when Damien Chouly drove over the line to score the try that Camille Lopez converted to give France a 20-18 win?
Or was it Camille Chat? It should be no surprise that in the most extraordinary, chaotic climax to any game of rugby that the stadium announcer got the try-scorer wrong. It was Chouly who scored and the clock read 100 minutes. (you certainly got your monies worth if you were at the match) :grin:

In my opinion Wales were robbed

Well done Scotland :clap and Ireland :clap for final match wins

Wales where robbed...and France cheated

Wonder if they managed to get to the bottom of the bitten arm of George North?
As the ball should have been given to Wales at that point.

And yes lol...Did the mighty French player have a head injury? And if so from where? Or was he just being replaced by non tired legs 11 minutes into red time, to get the scrum they wanted.

Their Dr just ran on and without checking the player over ..shouted head injury!!!!
Absolute farcical disgrace

Shame on Barnsley the ref, he lost the plot and was never going to let Wales win.

Ireland where magnificent and at their best...and Scotland have come on in leaps and bounds with their new coach

Well done England for winning the 6 nations

Some great Rugby was watched and played

I thought the ref did a good job in very difficult circumstances. For example, should he have given a penalty try after the scrum went down so many times? I think not, given the result was on a knife edge. It would have been the appropriate option at any other time in the match though.

Thought this was all about the referee and not the game..... I'm not an expert, vaguely know the rules, but thought the English ref was appalling and Wales definitely robbed....
