I thought you couldn’t do a quick one if it touches a player or an object, like the advertising board?

How can they possibly have reviewed that breakdown and decided it was fine?

No, no, he didn't push the ball back he pushed the Fijian players hand back who was holding the ball. She actually said it.

If Porecki took that throw any further on the pitch, he'd have been in the car park.

Apparently he's a savage magician, so it's fine.
Apart from it being a silly comment.

Makes no diff: Matavesi has many qualities but throwing is not one of them.

If the person saying it is Irish, it’s a complement !1

Total dominance, but not where it matters. And, again, the critical decision was wrong and counted massively against them.

In the old days sides could go back to scrum, maul, kick, ruck when fretting against Fiji. Can't do that now.

As pointed out after, that meant the Fijian wasn't allowed to place the ball (by a player on the floor), so still a pen to Fiji.

I feel sorry for the lad, he's a victim of Eddie doing his 'Rugby Yoda' bit. Wants everyone to think he's unearthed the next Giteau and completely jettisoned a more experienced operator in Cooper.

If it touches a non player (e.g. ball boy or crowd), you still can't go quick.

Brace has already cost Fiji at least 15, so maybe they are trying to make it look less obvious.
