There's gonna be a yellow for shoulder charge before long. Happening all the time

It's just a knee, Jannie, you have another.

Has been for a while, Jake Ball is a past master.

Good on Ben Kay for not proffering his opinion that England would win

Must've picked up bad habits in his youth

De villiers suddenly looks more relaxed. And less emaciated

JP Doyle got that touchline decision correct but extremely dumb to call it in realtime.

 

[Slim 293]

Samoa needs to stop playing so loose...........

Weren't you complaining about slow games?

 

[saulityvi]

If he sees in real time, why not make the call?

Wayne Barnes is a refreshing change from Clancy...........

Samoa need to be more disciplined and quit playing so loose.........

SA a much better looking side from last week....... Etzebeth makes a big difference.

I don't care if he got it right, the margin for error was extremely high and it's a stupid risk to take for a big call.

 

[Slim 293]

It wasn't really.........

He saw his foot go into touch and made the correct decision...........

Tuilagi, what a giant fuckin show pony. Leads the haka all scary and motivational like then once the song and dance is over and shit gets real, very real, he cowers away on the wing looking after his braids, invisible until the 39th minute when he decides hey I might try a fuckin poofball dive. GET INVOLVED, mincing poof, youre only 120 kgs and your team kind of needs you

If he sees the guy bundle into touch and throw the pass after that, there is no margin for error. in times where TMO is overused it is fucking refreshing to see referees back themselves in real time.

That wasn't a call like Jackson's in the previous game. It was very iffy in realtime.

 

[mxyzptlk]

Tuilagi's had a go, now just waiting for the other thespian.

 

[Slim 293]

That wasn't a call like Jackson's in the previous game. It was very iffy in realtime.

It's nothing like the previous game....... but for a professional AR watching it in real time it was pretty obvious.

Etzebeth is a beast!
