[RWC2019][Pool B] Round 3 - England vs. Argentina (05/10/2019)

[Rinkadink]

How is that not a card?
Legs lifted above horizontal and then dropped him - that's a yellow

Plus a kick to the head.

 

[Jimbo]

concussion?

I am wondering that it’s crazy it’s crazy they have allowed him to stay on unchecked.

For all the noise about lineout jumpers pre-tournament Curry has been our main target on attack lineouts and our main jumper on defending LOs too

I read this as.... I best put in a nice post before all hell breaks loose in here.

Not really. That says more about you than me.
You only have to read the Argentine Rugby thread in the general forum to see what our expectations were/are.

Infuriating thing about Youngs is he has actually done a few excellent passes, but in between it's just shite.

As I write that he bloody well scores a try.

And just want himself starting against France....

 

[Bada-Bing!]

That was just the tonic before half time.

Not really very dangerous.

..... ok

"you want sharpness at the base of a ruck no one better than ben Youngs"

This guy probably thinks a spoon is sharp...

you never miss an opportunity to big up Curry lol.

 

[Not Eddie Jones]

Farrell has missed 9 points! We should be out of sight by now.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Needed that,

0% kicking is....interesting

 

[Reiser99]

Farrell has left 9 points out there with his kicking. Ford really should take over.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

All very routine after the red. England playing like a team who have to play 5 games in as many weeks.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

When I was repeatedly told he's not a lineout target and Lawes should be starting instead, I'll do it as much as I can

 

[bushytop]

Now that Arg are ‘basically’ out... if you thought they were reckless in the first have, you may be about to have your collective heads blown in the second.

#offwiththeirheads

The most annoying thing is we could have had a double helping of Curry.

 

[OneBlackEye]

Argentina must be the biggest waste of talent in international rugby. Total potential world beaters constantly self sabotaging themselves.

And always holding their hands up looking around like "Who? Me?"

 

[Which Tyler]

Now, how many upright posts is Farrell seeing at the moment?

More than one set - hook him off at HT.
It's not just his kicking, he's having a bad day all round; looks to me as if his head's been rattled - and with good justification.

I'd also replace Billy at HT - he's too important going forwards; and with that red card; we don't NEED him out there.
