r/Connacht

With how we've been officiated so far in the season and today being the worst it's got me questioning my love for the sport added on with the new maul law.

Whether we deserved to win against Glasgow or not is besides my point, but we at least deserve fair officiating and it was far from it with 6 instances of ridiculous play:

1. From the restart after Glasgow's 1st try we win a penalty inside Glasgow's 22 which gets overturned because of a 'no wrap' tackle.

2. For Glasgow's 2nd try their maul goes backwards; the referee tells the George Horne to use the ball, he doesn't. The ball is still with Gregor Hiddleston in the maul with no movement until after a few seconds when Glasgow backs join the maul to push over for the try.

3. Shayne Bolton attempts to catch the ball when's he's on his way to land he gets hit head on head by Mackenzie Duncan who ends up receiving no represcussion.

4. Cathal Forde gets pinned to the turf and is being gouged on his face with punches been thrown also by Max Williamson who alike Mackenzie Duncan receives no represcussion.

5. Josh Murphy collides clumsily with Rory Darge and receives a yellow card which to me would be a rugby incident and a penalty only at most.

6. Glasgow concede 4 consecutive penalties inside their 22 and when they've conceded the 4th they only get a yellow card and no penalty try when both always are the punishment after consecutive infringements defending your own 22.

Some serious investigation is needed for the referee, TMO and ARs from the game and all shouldn't return until they have clear understanding of every law and they should be correctly implemented.

Also wtb some maul defence

Did anyone catch what instigated the fight that Forde was having on the floor? No replay on premier sport. Maybe they showed something more on TG4?

Did any season ticket holders manage to get tickets to the Argentina or South Africa matches through the club? And did you actually get the tickets already after the payment? Cheers
