[RWC2023] England vs Samoa (07/10/2023)

[TRF_Olyy]

The second he touched Farrell he detached, never a penalty in a million years lol.

Oh, ok
You literally don't know the laws, that makes sense

 

[BrokenWing]

Check if Farrell can count to 60. Nope, ok scrum.

He was saying missississippi.

 

[dirty harry]

Yeah he said as he gave the card it was for it being their third dangerous play in ten minutes

Dangerous hahahahaha

 

[Rinkadink]

That is the softest touch anyone will ever receive in the air, and of course the ref getting nervous of a tier 1 loss it's a yellow

Samoa were on final warning, especially for tackle penalties. They literally just tackled a man in the air. In isolation that's never a yellow as it's a timing issue but when you've been pinged off the park for tackle infringements you need to clean it up. It was daft challenging like that.

The only thing I will say is that the TMO seems to be looking one way for off the ball stuff. Other than that the yellow was absolutely the right call in that situation.

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

Johnny May may be far from our biggest issue here but he is such a shell of the player he was for a while

 

[TommiG88]

Man up, get the ball out of the scrum quickly. Why are we so brainless

 

[dirty harry]

Hahahaha

Be as snarky as you like, contact with a player in the air isnt illegal lol

 

[IT157]

Samoa doing well eating up all this time. Not convinced England will score a try here.

 

[Reiser99]

Play Fiji or Japan in the quarters? Mullins is crap.

Maybe we've just not done any, tbf
Probably tried to tackle someone off the ball and hit our own players instead

He didnt tackle him in the air at all, as soon as the slightest contact was made he pulled away... Farrell just knocked it on dramatically

It is when you make no attempt on the ball

Care seems to be backing off and allowing Poundshop Faf de Klerk's replacement into the space

England have got away with a fair bit of off the ball tackling

 

[Bada-Bing!]

We totally don't deserve this win if we nick it.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

I'd be too embarrassed to celebrate that much tbf

 

[IT157]

There we go! Danny Care!

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Care should be starting

 

[Scotty]

Really glad we arnt losing, with a man advantage and a clock thats ticking down to the first ever loss to Samoa...
