Munster Rugby - We DID start the fire (Part 1)

Sad to see.

Rumours of sectarian singing by the munster fans too but I think thats unfounded

Glasgow fans booing an injured player was disappointing to see too. Its these elements we don’t want to see creeping into rugby.

Booing a player who is lying prone on the ground with a head injury…fucking north British.

We know you voted no…

I presume they thought he was faking being knocked out. Which is kinda ironic because that’s exactly what him and the Munster management are going to argue happened now that they’re being investigated for letting him play on as a clear concussion risk

He claimed he hadn’t gotten a knock on the head and he clearly points to his neck.

Munster said when the doc left field he reviewed the video again and they pulled him for the HIA when they saw the incident again. He passed the HIA and went back on. He had another HIA post match which he also passed.

I said it last nt after game it looked bad and he shouldn’t have been left back on. Personally don’t think he was concussed he didn’t look to have any symptoms apart from looking like he’d been sparked out. But that’s not really the point

The Glasgow fans are gas crowd. The booing at every turn. They were going mad on twitter coz munster fans singing sectarian songs I. E. The fields

You couldn’t make it up.

Cunts moaning about Murray sledging Glasgow players at the final whistle. ( fair achievement for a lad concussed ).

You are spot on, he was fine.

My own view, having played the game and supported it for years, is that once a player has been KO’d a HIA is irrelevant- they should be removed from the pitch.

Murray was out for the count. He and the Munster management team left him on which increased the chance he’d pass the HIA several minutes later. I don’t blame the player - they’ll always want to stay on. Very poor form from Munster mgmt though. If it was any other game (or prob player) there is not a chance they’d be back out to play. It’s as bad as any of the George North incidents. The fact that the EPCR are investigating is not surprising.

Pipe down Mary Poppins.

What they are claiming, rightly or wrongly, was that the medics went straight onto the pitch and had only seen incident in real time and we’re not aware he’d been KO. And when they left pitch and saw video they then removed him

But yeah I agree 100% if player was knocked out he should be gone for rest of game immediately. Was Murray definitely KO? Looked it in real time but haven’t seen many angles of it

It’s definitely not as bad as the north incidents. He was wobbling all over the fucking place. And murray doesn’t have north’s history

Yeah and he was sledging a fella who came through late when the ball was gone and hit him a belt…fuck the cunts

And one further point relative to North. North was actually concussed badly the time it happened with Wales and I’d suspect badly a few weeks ago again.

Whilst I do agree with your point that Murray should have been gone out of game I don’t actually think he was concussed at all.

Think your a bit off here. Murray gets another knock to the head a minute later that’s why he was removed from play.

That’s what I thought. But I am just repeating what’s munster own official response was.

Munster set to face Untoward Incident Review after Murray incident http://the42.ie/3188018

Detail is in here

Fuck all comment about Munster pulling o Mahony from the game in last ten mins for a HIA when the game was rightly in the mixer.

He failed it anyway. Probably sit out next weekend

Eh they shouldn’t be praised for following regulations should they?

That does explain the kiss though

Not at all. But it is certainly a point to be noted for those who say Munster have no regard for their players.

The kiss I believe was to resolve a barney the two boys had on the field after Stander had given away a penalty!

It should just become an Independent thing. Get rid of these Medical Council type reviews.

Two penalties in Row. Fairly brainless, perhaps he was concussed too?
