Bit of a pattern going, and they're always stupid.

Yeah, you obviously want your 7 to be on the edge, but he’s illegal in some way at almost every breakdown

On the card, is mitigation allowed to be a factor as there was never a valid tackle??

Daly absolutely killed that momentum with a terrible pass behind May, slow ball, two big tackles follow.

Not a go at Farrell, because they are all at it, but we can’t claim any moral high ground against football with the number of players trying to get other players sent off. Another stain on the game

If a tackle is never legal (no arms), mitigation does not apply, cvnthole.

Pish penalty, Genge did exactly the same in the build up to England's try

Fiji’s Sevens style passing is unnecessary, keep it short fellas.

No pen for Fiji when the scrum was destroyed.
Then dubious pen to England.

No chance Earl was supporting his own body weight there prior to the clear offence by Fiji.

Appreciating the Scottish alternative commentary :thumbup:

England the better team, especially in the tight, but very fortunate with the ref so far - Curry should've been yellowed and that last scrum was clearly a penalty too. Reynal gonna Reynal.

Fiji largely as self destructive as they have been since half time in the Australia game.
