Anyone else noticed that this ref is taking far longer on the scrum engage sequence on England scrum put-ins than he is for Irish scrum put-ins?

This game has no pace, no flow. Dull so far.

I do, it's why I say George starts when he's fit. He's matured into a super player.

If a maul is formed immediately after a player has directly caught an opponent’s kick in open play, a scrum that is awarded for any of the above reasons will be to the team of the ball catcher.

Right, Mako's got on the wrong side of the ref, that's going to be a problem.

Sinckler learning nothing and giving the ref plenty. That will help :thumbup:

The continuity for that try was absolutely fantastic. And Daly fucked the high ball again...

We dominate against latins but those bloody celts are a pain.

Have to admit I thought Sexton was done. Easily the Lions 10 at the moment

He’s only playing against England 2021 for gawds sake.

We had to answer to that set of phases - they just moved it back and forth making ground every time.

Game's done. England don't overhaul leads of this magnitude.

This could get messy. Look’s like England have decided that ‘all’ refs are unfair so not gunna play. So there.

Not massively enjoying the ref but would be nice if we put phases together.

I think Ireland’s game management will keep their heads cool and England’s frustration could keep giving Ireland territory and 3 pointers.

England have 10 minutes at the start of the second half to get their shit together

Will Ireland get 40? Have England ever conceded this many points in a 6N?
