If we are going to forensically review every decision I look forward to 1000 ruck pens this game.
Ireland next. There'd be 10,000.

How was Cuthbert not done for accidental offside there? Passed and ran in front of the player with the ball.

Wrong. It adds to the licence fee! Lineker is another.

Not sure the front row plan has worked. Lots of momentum killing penalties between them and not dominating anything

It's such a shame to have a tip top former ref that should be able to give us insightful commentary to the vagaries and intricacies of the laws of game and instead he just dishes up myopic one-eyed shrill fucking drivel. :thumbdown:

One scrum penalty isn't it? Schoeman has been very effective in the loose.

I think it's done it's job to an extent. Let's the other 3 come on fresh and create havoc.

Yup. Another area I think our other front row would be dealing with better

The positive is it means he can't ref or TMO England any more.

He was always "look at me" on the field. So no surprise now.

Meant penalties around the park, I think 4 between them. The ruck has been an issue and I think the other 3 would have dealt with that better as well. No domination in the scrums

They haven’t been bad, just not sure it’s really gone to plan

Indeed

I was trying to remember Nigel ever making a call to bin a player from a team repeatedly infringing that had just conceded a try. He was one of the worse for basically resetting the repeated offending yellow card penalty count after a try.

2 pens, one on each prop. Rambo top carrier on forwards who hasn't packed at 8.

We aren't committing to the breakdown across the park. Seems to be a team tactic. The subs should be able to provide real impact.
