Nigel Owens calls for major changes to the TMO system, with most fans in agreement

Owens stated in his column for Wales Online: "Technology certainly has its part to play in modern sport. Look at tennis, which has got it spot on. The challenges are very factual, the ball is either in or out and there are no ifs or buts over these important decisions, and I think technology has helped tennis in that way. The same goes for cricket, they’ve been able to use technology in the right way and they have seen the advantages.

"The problem with both football and rugby is that the technology is being overused. Unlike tennis and cricket, it’s not being used in a factual way, and the way the game is played and the current laws also contribute to that."

He added: "If you look at rugby, the TMO protocol used to be pretty clear and strict,"

"It was to be used only in the act of scoring. You couldn’t use technology to go back five, 10 or even 50 metres, if not more sometimes, to see if somebody was onside or not.

"You couldn't do that back then and as a result you didn’t have the amount of controversy we're having today.

"Once you open up technology to all areas of the field, it's just going to be inconsistent and bring controversy because whether we like it or not, in football and in rugby, a lot of it is down to the referee's interpretation, their experience and their ability to make a judgement call.

"You just need to let the referees go out and do that. That’s the way to ensure you have your best officials refereeing games, as at the moment you have some refereeing at a level they probably wouldn't be able to work at if they didn't have the technology to make four or five decisions for them in the game."

Woodward tore apart Eddie Jones' side during a webinar, slamming Marler and fellow prop Dan Cole for their behaviour in a press conference prior to the loss against South Africa back in November. This wasn't the first time the 2003 World Cup-winning coach called out the prop.

After reading an article on the Rugby Pass website highlighting Woodward's comments, he tweeted him directly, saying: "Change the record Sir Clive - you should be grateful you can 'milk the cow' for another 3 years."

Over 1,000 days since Folau last played a professional match of rugby union, Marler's old Twitter sparring partner made his return to the sport over the weekend.

The loose-head prop takes any chance he can to call out the former Wallabies fullback, who could soon represent Tonga, for his homophobic views.

In a series of tweets sent directly to Folau, Marler attached pictures and GIFs of men kissing, in a display of defiant humour which was praised by fellow players and LGBTQ fans alike.

Marler later named Folau in his dream team in a tongue-in-cheek fashion.

On selecting Folau as his fullback, Marler commented, "On the night out, after we had played our match on the Saturday, I'd take him out in Brighton to The Blue Oyster... a couple of clubs."

The winger dramatically left Harlequins in 2017 to join Premiership rivals Sale Sharks in an unusual mid-season move.

Marler said: “I hadn’t spoken to the bloke in 18 months,

“I’d lost the plot with him a good while ago. And let him be, let him do his own thing, because I’d given up on it

“He’d made the decision that he wanted to leave…you know, all the best to him. I wish him all the best. I don’t wish nastiness upon anyone.

“He’s one of those to just leave, as he won’t change in my mind. Me and him just don’t get on.”

Both players were red carded by referee Wayne Barnes, who saw the incident unfold right in front of him, with Leicester prop Marcos Ayerza head butting Marler, who then retaliated with a few seemingly well placed punches in 2011.

These two have history. Henson was ruled out for a number of weeks in 2016 after Marler clattered the Welsh Prince off the ball.

The England prop was returning to rugby after a troubled 2015-16 season, that prompted the loosehead to take a break from the game in the summer missing England's historic 3-0 whitewash of the Wallabies Down Under.

A story from Marler's book shows the ego of Henson in 2005 was off the scale. Being told to hurry up with his hair by his captain Gareth Thomas, the playmaker showed his skipper little respect.

Henson's reply to Thomas was: “Alf, your mother and father have come to watch you play today, but there are 72,000 out there who have come to watch me.”

We're delving into the nitty-gritty of Six Nations history, focusing on those moments when the ref brandished a red card and sent players marching off the pitch.

It's a real head-scratcher, mate! So, grab your favourite brew, cozy up in your lucky armchair, and let's see if you've got the goods to name every Six Nations player who's been given the old heave-ho since the turn of the century.

This one's a corker, so let's get stuck in and separate the true-blue rugby brains from the weekend warriors.

Cheers, and let the quizathon begin!
