Agree. TMO a bit “it is this” rather than “a possible xxxx”
Rugby Union Discussion - Six Nations Time
- Thread starter unchanged_lineup
- Start date
Wasn't the pass forwards afterwards anyway?
It did look it to the naked eye but they didn’t think so.
Weren’t England playing with an advantage before the neck roll?
Weird, it was pretty much a carbon copy of South Africa's if you go by the pitch markings
Seems much better as Refs when the ground can hear the decision.
Would be difficult to tell without replays. They would have picked it up if it was I assume.
Meh. Why take 3 points on 50 minutes when you could have a 5 meter line out.
There we go. Cancelled out from the halfway line after England had possession.
Come on ref
That should be a yellow, taking the man out in the air
Bad missed tackle there. Two England players on De Allende and both let him through.
England’s tacking is as bad as last week.
Lucky we’ve got TMO as this ref is appalling
England seem to have forgotten what they did well in the first half and fallen back into old habits.

Andrew Brace, Irish ref. Scourge of Connacht and not in my good booksLucky we’ve got TMO as this ref is appalling

That take out in the air was as clear as day and I think he saw it/bottled initial decision.Lucky we’ve got TMO as this ref is appalling

Also seems pernickity, not consistent and easily led by TMO.
Is he rugbys Coote?
Diabolical lineout.
Feck sake, stupid there by England.
Huge number of penalties this half
England are a pretty dumb team, they never seem to learn to be able to hack it when it gets tough.
Yep England have had plenty of chances to make it count and have been useless at doing so.
5 losses in a row for England.
England have been extremely poor since JVP went off. Borthwick can’t seem to get out of his own way. I don’t understand why he’s so determined to change half backs on 50 minutes.
Right winner, England played ok for a half and a bit.
Looking forward to France v NZ

Is Borthwick Englands’ Ten Hag? A coaching issue?
Very nice for Kolisi to do that interview with his kids. His son was having a great time
Yup, home for this one. Not chuffed to have missed England….but sounds like it was probably a blessing and glad to be back for this cracker
Poor Borthers - he was Southgate on here last week, now he’s Ten Haag
One of the French players went home? Who are they talking about?
Ah, it's Jalibert.
Stadium looking fantastic. This could be epic if they both “go for it”…. not that France need much encouragementYup, home for this one. Not chuffed to have missed England….but sounds like it was probably a blessing and glad to be back for this cracker
The national anthem was beautiful..::just brings it home how horrendous the English one is
French anthem is awesome and this haka looks amazing in the dark. Great atmosphere
I expect an easy win for the All Blacks, France have been a bit strange lately.
Good reffing telling that NZ player to stay down
No. I'm not convinced by the consistency offensively and a general lack of discipline. I don't worry long term but they have looked undercooked.
50m kick for the first points. As you do.
