Edinburgh Vs Glasgow, Friday, 12th June 2015

Recommended Posts

The chance of a point for Glasgow will lie with how many rollers James Sargeant is able to get away with.

Aye Cook has taught him well.

Forum experts go on about Cook getting away with rolling (he used to and still does occasionally) and sargeant (he doesn't - he anticipates) and wondered why if they were cheating refs didn't do more. I got hold of the rules and cant find anything about rolling or anticipating starts aas being an offence. What is the rule and I don't mean Pearson and tatums rule I mean the real rule?

I'm not a betting man but somewhere in the region of 53-41 for the Monarchs

Just read that Steve Worral is ill and his place will be taken by Richie Worral. Now expect the gap to be greater than previously predicted.

Game over for any chance of GLA sneaking a point.

I don't know the "real" rule but surely the spirit of the rule is that all four guys are completely stationary when the button is pressed.

 

I remember always being facinated by Derek Sneddon's back wheel starting to rotate whilst he was on the green light - I always thought that is probably a good edge and would be legal.

That's my point about the 'real rule' - who does know/?

 

By the way there is a rule that says the rear wheel must be in contact with the track at the start so its not legal to spin your wheel

. When he was at Newcastle Deek got excluded for spinning his back wheel by the ref.

Fair enough I thought that it would be okay as he was technically not moving.
