Quite possibly.

I'd add Huw Jones to the list of those centers too.

 

[AlRums]

First sensible decision Carley has made, only 76 mins late

 

[Lé Ddanno]

Nothing like a 78th minute TMO call that amounts to **** all. Thanks Jonker.

 

[AlRums]

Ban the TMO

They've all been busy and disruptive this weekend

 

[Flankers' paradise]

on that same replay france 20 flies in and clears out the scottish guys knee is that not illegal?

For the Lions, sure. But I meant that Prendergast has the advantage of playing with that quality of centre pairing week-in and week-out at the moment, whereas Smith has no such luxury.

Pfft surely you should at least slot a celebratory drop goal

 

[ncurd]

Not a classic Super Saturday but fun was had.

 

[Lé Ddanno]

"Played bravely"

Down yer glass

 

[AlRums]

Seeing who the referee is I don't expect Scotland to benefit at all, Carley is notorious for lax reffing for the "senior, higher ranked" team.

Called it

Oh that S25 advert is gold. Ask AI for the answer about Rugby and it gives the wrong answer.

 

[Lé Ddanno]

Called it

He didn't cost you 19 points

 

[AlRums]

Well done France, even with decent decisions you won as I expected.

The only real issues with Carley today for me are the tip tackle on Russell and I'd like to have seen the penalty before the last French try for dragging the player into touch. Other than that, I don't think he made much of a difference on the game.

I just yelled at that

Difficult to say when there was one more player on the pitch than should have been.

 

[Bluemoon]

France deserving winners of the game and the tournament. Félicitations! Best team on balance throughout, even with some utterly bonkers moments of chaos and creativity. I bet it'll be a great night in Paris.

It was Jones not Russell

That's not on Carley, though.

It's an accurate advert but hilarious.
