England v New Zealand - 2 November 2024

What are these refs on

 

[Saintjay]

How did that play on geez

 

[TommiG88]

Should be a yellow!! How can he say there wasn’t a line break. 4 against 1

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Still nice watching international tens who have more pace than my nan though.

What's that supposed to mean?
Ireland always produce athletic specimens at 10

Ronan O.... I mean Jonny Se..... I mean Ross Byr..... Hmm

Can't wait for Owen Farrell to be our 10 at the next world cup.

Right call by a mile there.

 

[Reiser99]

One defender does not negate a line break for me, but at least they got to the penalty decision.

 

[jordiev]

Actual joker, itoje tipped of the ball when they have been warned about it, then that… has to be the worst ref in the international game

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

That took way too long for an obvious penalty only

 

[Which Tyler]

I can see why no penalty try, there's 1 defender covering the 3 attackers.
But surely a yellow

 

[AlRums]

Not a card, but certainly a penalty

Arguably black 11 put his arm out to wrap which he did

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Can't wait for Owen Farrell to be our 10 at the next world cup.

Right call by a mile there.

You're gonna be devastated when you realise it's Andy's grandparents that were born in Ireland so Owen isn't eligible

 

[jordiev]

I can see why no penalty try, there's 1 defender covering the 3 attackers.
But surely a yellow

Thats it to me, pen try sure can see the argument but the lack of a yellow… joker

 

[higgik]

Should be even if not break.was deliberate foul play, something that is a key difference between football and rugby, deliberate foul play is carded.

Yeah I don't like this emphasis on a clear line break - it was a blatant knock down on the attack in the oppo's half
That should be a yellow before you even look at the 4 on 2 outside

 

[higgik]

Thats it to me, pen try sure can see the argument but the lack of a yellow… joker

Too far out and Barrett covering the pass, but yelliw definitely.

 

[Reiser99]

Ok, that proves Ben is the better Curry.

 

[Ddanno]

B Curry for T Curry, why has it taken 10 years

 

[jordiev]

Ben should probably be starting over tom tbh, better balance better 7 for me.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

This has been good by England. NZ do look terribly coached.

Smith has had a far better 2nd half than first but still the wrong Smith in that team. Fin would be in his element with that pack and back three.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Ok, that proves Ben is the better Curry.

and that Tom should be playing 6, which is basically how he played today

Curry, Curry, CCs backrow cakewalks the world cup
#4CS

I'm fairly sure he's eligible on his mum's side, her father is Irish.

That's what my old fella says anyway.
