He's not shit, but it's such a basic technique thing that it really shouldn't be happening so often. Works hard, carries well, solid in the scrum but can easily give away pens if he's not careful.

Yup. He's actually been better than Itoje in play but he's another Eng player with discipline/anger management issues.

Your RWC pairing is Care/Smith.PCPhil wrote: Sat Jul 16, 2022 10:24 am Care awful so far. We had a great new scrum half last week but we changed it.

It really is odd to see Aus make so many basic, stupid errors.
Demonstration of what’s dumb about the advantage law there. England penalty around the Aussie 10, take two phases and then break and get clean possession inside the Aussie 22. Should be advantage over at that point for me, but they still got the penalty when they fucked it up from there.
And are there two g’s in Bugger Off?
Happens all the time. Most refs will make sure that if there is no score they will go back for a pen. Have to go at least 50m for advantage over.Biffer wrote: Sat Jul 16, 2022 10:29 am Demonstration of what’s dumb about the advantage law there.

FM, this is dire stuff. Left with amusing myself with whether Hodge is actually slower than Steward.

Once again Steward fails to trust his inside defender.
Be tough for Steward to even know Nowell was in a position to do anything there. Porter was the issue that created the overlap and linebreak.Torquemada 1420 wrote: Sat Jul 16, 2022 10:36 am Once again Steward fails to trust his inside defender.

Comms team still haven't caught up with the rationale behind scheduled waterbreaks then

As last man, it's really your job to know. All part of the learning curve for a young player.Raggs wrote: Sat Jul 16, 2022 10:37 amBe tough for Steward to even know Nowell was in a position to do anything there.

Thought that was a harsh pen.
Eddie said in the pre match interview that the Kiwi ref meant loads of quick ball so wanted Care. Which obviously hasn’t happened but Eddie got to feel clever for a bitPCPhil wrote: Sat Jul 16, 2022 10:24 am Care awful so far. We had a great new scrum half last week but we changed it.

Retarded. How many times do fwds truck the ball up n times to make 2 yds..... outside the 22, and then give away the direct to touch kick or a turnover pen?
