I'll be keeping my eye on this on: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/38295842 What pleases me is that Garner had the smarts to call the player over, warn him and tell him what would happen to him if he did it again! In the 28th minute at Stade Felix Mayol, Garner called over Davies and Scarlets captain Ken Owens and told Davies: "If you use that language again on the pitch, I'll send you off." If only Wayne "Look at Me" Barnes did that a few years ago??!?! I recall him telling Dylan that "you can't talk to me like that" but I don't recall him actually talking to him properly. And IIRC, it was at a scrum he said it, he didn't take him to one side. Don't get me wrong, this is one of the times I can't argue against a Dylan red card, pretty much all the others I can, but it just highlights how a referee can handle situations better and maybe prevent a red card. |

Good reffing Imo, Davies is a young man he'll have learnt his lesson from that |

Yep, good reffing, didn't ruin the game. If the authorities decide he crossed the line they can deal with it. Bearing in mind Dylan got 11 weeks for calling Barnes an "F-in cheat", I'd be interested in knowing what Davies said... |
