[RWC2019][Pool A] Round 4 - Japan vs. Scotland (13/10/2019)

Is obstruction on the kicker rushing forward not a penalty any more?
 
I'm as impressed with Japanxas anyone but I could do without Liam Toland getting off to every routine thing to do, he literally just raved about a perfectly normal tackle.
 
A turn over now is diving off your feet to grab the ball, will try that next Saturday and see what the ref says
 
Ritchie again?
ETA: Yup, looks more innocuous than his first though
 
This ref has had a blinder to be honest. Has let most 50/50 stuff go both ways and the game has been better for it. Players getting to decide it rather than the ref

Thirded. There will always be lots of borderline calls in rugby. The good refs let marginal things slide and what you get is an amazingly open contest like this.
