Why not take the scrum?

Yellow warning for a specific type of offence then being upgraded to a general yellow warning when more pens that aren't that offence occur is hardly unprecedented, chaps. Don't go all Rassie on us over it.

Flats is right - SA have multiple platforms to score from here.

Jones obviously banned any of the attacking pattern beong used again.

Get Stuart and Genge on a HT.

The midfield looks all kinds of wrong. 2022 Manu is just a big bloke to truck it up and SA can deal with that all day. The freakish power and acceleration of his early career just isn't there any more.

Looked worth a look, but can't begrudge the benefit of the doubt going to the attacking team on such a slick move. Especially in such a dull game.

Twickenham looks like Ministry of Sound rather than a Rugby stadium.

Flat with momentum, no issue. It was the blocking that I thought could be iffy.

One of my pet hates but pretty much accepted in modern rugby. Rugby is increasingly like a less impressive version of american football.

Edit: Everyone carefully avoiding mentioning what took Doddie Weir out of the 1997 Lions tour.

I want any team he plays in to lose.


If he'd shut his hole I'd be the opposite, he's one of the best players in the world

Faf lucky he didn't connect there.

Strapping Smith up, so it looks like our 10 and 12 will only have one good leg between them.

I think he's just a sledging wee shite (ie scrum half), he was at Duhan van der Merwe all the time on the Lions tour - so much so that vdMerwe injured PSdT on his next carry and put him out of the Lions series
