Under-20 Competitions including Oceania & World U20s

What are these not straight calls? The first one was marginal but the second one was fine

Legit, the ref was right in front and decides to call it 5 seconds later? It's so fucking dumb loool

I thought that definitely looked like a high shot on the australian winger in real time,

 

[molman]

Ireland don't deserve to be 1 ahead in this game. Shame. Some luck going their way.

 

[Confucius Say]

How many forward passes does the Irish 10 have to throw before the ref sees one and calls it. They are not even flat. It’s a QB pass.

 

[Wallaby Man]

Definitely not getting the 50/50s.

Clear knock on before that last penalty and pretty sure if this game had video ref the Irish winger would have got a yellow at a minimum on the Aussie winger. Would also like to see the disallowed try in the corner.

We are playing well but lacking some explosiveness in the pack.

 

[bhim]

Definite head to head

 

[Brumby Runner]

Young Wallabies having to do a mountain of defence because they can't win a turnover at the ruck, while Ireland have turned the ball over at least 6 or 7 times. Do any of our teams at any level train to win ruck ball or is it the mentality that our No 7 is a pilferer and it's all up to him? Precisely why we have to have a different approach in TRC and RWC.

Having said that, those last points came from a couple of poor misses by the ref and ARs that should have seen the Junior Wallabies with scrum feeds, but instead led to possession to Ireland and then the penalty that allowed them to kick to a lead at half time.

I thought fair enough on first look, but the camera down the line showed it to be a tighter call than first look with him lifting his legs. Probably right call but camera other way would have been interesting.

Hopefully De Lutiis going off doesn't affect the scrum too much

Yeh live I think the right call would be to say no try. But would be interesting with another view

 

[molman]

I agree with commentary. That was not a slip. That could have been real dangerous.

 

[dusk]

Jeez. I understand conditions are pretty bad out there but that is shocking.

 

[Wilson]

We're a skillful side, but we could be playing smarter for the conditions

 

[molman]

Jeez. I understand conditions are pretty bad out there but that is shocking.

Not one for the highlight reel. That was a try.

 

[Wilson]

Not a huge fan of the carry-on from either side

 

[molman]

We really aren't (smart). The Irish are starting to control this now and I think the Australia is the better (or at least as you say, more skillful) team.

 

[Jimmy_Crouch]

Get Craig off

 

[Adam84]

This teams playing pretty stupid, not playing to the conditions at all

 

[dusk]

Clearly held up

 

[molman]

Clearly held up

Yes. (maybe when pulled back he brushed the line?)
