       Actually I think Rose (TMO) told him to look at it. But only
       after we all kicked off. It was a blatant and definitely illegal
       line. To run in that jinking style, whilst checking over the
       shoulder just to check you're getting in the way, is just plain
       cheating. Try doesn't stand, because the cheating influenced our
       player even having a chance of getting there. Should have been a
       yellow too IMHO.

       For those wondering if Brew had run a consistent and straight
       line then he would have been fine.like the other week, as
       annoying as it was, standing your line is legit even if it
       blocks a chase.
       What Brew did was change his line four times to directly
       interfere with the chaser’s runline, that is what was an illegal
       play.
       As far as letting the try stand, the original offence began
       somewhere in the tens (although I thought ref’s Mark was too
       short personally) so the try could not stand.

       West stand - we booed as loud as possible.
       Bath player cheated - against the spirit (such bull poop
       nonsense anyway, get over it) and laws of rugby.
       Cheat - get called out - get caught.

       I booed, and I'll boo every week until the referees in this
       league improve. How you can call that support running is beyond
       me.

       The referee had little to do with it, he was happy to ignore the
       noise until the TMO intervened.

       Law states it was a penalty and try was correct not to be
       awarded
       Only time all afternoon there seemed to be any real passion from
       the crowd and it built from that point
       Sitting in Library I was also bloody annoyed by it as it looked
       as though it wasn’t even going to be looked at
       Cheered when it was and it was disallowed
       Hated the chant for OFF OFF OFF
       And as for the comment about Cookie not being a real Quins fan,
       well he is

       Agree re the off, off call. That was stupid. I agree with every
       comment above re the Stoop getting very annoyed. The stoop does
       need to get louder.

       the football behaviour. Thank god for real Quins fans in the

       Cookie is very much a 'real' Quins fan and has been for some
       years. I may disagree with his point of view on the Brew foul
       but no, he is very much a 'real' fan. Oh and btw, in case you
       question my credentials, I will say to the old timers, how is
       TMJ?

       I am very surprised Cookie can be so wrong...

       Sorry cookie,I disagree. And yes,I sit in the South stand, and I
       booed.
       The referees geta huge amount of respect from me and all who sit
       near me for doing a difficult job. But that call, or lack of,
       was bafflingly poor, and deserved the derision it received.
