[2023 Six Nations] Ireland v England - 18 March 2023

Excuse my ignorance, but how does Itoje put Farrell onside from a penalty? It’s not a kick so surely he has to be 10 or he’s offside.
To answer this, it's in law 20.14: "If it is taken so quickly that opponents have no opportunity to retreat, they will not be sanctioned for this. However, they may not take part in the game until they have retreated 10 metres from the mark or until a team-mate who was 10 metres from the mark has moved in front of them."
 
I didn't think you could lift a player up off the ground and call a maul after?

Either way right outcome as pass before looked forward.
