England v Fiji - 8/11/2025

[Welsh Exile]

Gotta be red.
Lucky it's a offield review rather than straight

Didn’t land on his head and he got straight back up and cracked on.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Dingwall offers nothing

I wouldn't say that, he's offered the opposition a free try two weeks in a row

Purely luck though. They aren't meant to be outcome based.

Don't get me wrong I'd rather see XV vs XV for a full game.

He must be pay for play? The Lance Stroll of rugby

 

[General Melchett]

Feels wrong that IFW instinctively using his arms to prevent landing on his head should make a difference to the card upgrade.

It was incredibly reckless and I can see why it would but for me everyone was ok, send him to the bin and carry on.

Weird half. Some bite were very good. Some poor. CCS has looked excellent every time he’s had the ball.

He was horizontal by the time he hit the ground. It wasn’t like he was nosediving to the ground and then put his arms out to stop landing on his head. Maybe I’m remembering it wrong though.

I don't think it does - unless he manages to use those arms to turn and land on a shoulder rather than head - Which he didnt

 

[Ddanno]

Harsh, 9 plays him, not the other way around

You'd know

I’m OK with that. However, I don’t think that’s what will happen as World Rugby are trying to minimise those kind of reckless challenges. It’s lucky he landed the way he did. On another day, that could have been very serious injury.

****. My daughter has just put on K-Pop Demon Hunters. Well, it was nice while it lasted. Come on Fiji.

It’s on in the background here too … my girls love it

If you think 9s were a protected species when I was playing, you severely under-estimate my age

Give her a yellow with crossed arms to indicate a bunker review.

I think it will be a 20 min red, I don't think it would be a full red as it wasn't deliberate. But it was high degree of danger even if IFW is a tank who just cracks on into contact . Won't be annoyed if yellow only but it was bad even though the outcome was fine.

 

[Grizwald]

Actually been a good half of Rugby to watch IMO. Fiji played so excellent stuff and fired up.

One is us is remembering it wrong.
For me he lands hands first, then face, then torso .

That he for up is utterly irrelevant (and incredibly fortunate)

Dingwall might have achieved the impossible I think England fans would rather a Farrell return based on this.

PS, obviously if Seb and Max are injured or don't play 12.

Dingwall has been deeply underwhelming each time he's got a chance. Just doesn't have the physicality for an international 12 I think.
