England XV vs France XV - 21/06/25

The red card situation is a joke

I was going to joke about it being upgraded, but thought it was a ludicrous suggestion.

The red card situation is a joke

IFW red was a red with no mitigation.

That one I'm maybe red but enough to mitigate down to yellow.

 

[Abraxaz]

pfff not sure on that red.
its a dynamic ruck, not really that dangerous.

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

WTF a red? Neither red card would be a red in the premiership this season.

Bonkers.


As for Hill, maybe he’s just lazy and hangs out on the wing too much?

 

[BrokenWing]

I get there was no mitigation, but what difference does the degree of danger make in that case? Goes from a 20 minute red to a straight red?

 

[Scotty]

Why is George still on? Get Dan on for some more experience. Especially if the Lions get an injury.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Having 20min reds is just a complete mess tbh,
Rugby loves making itself more complicated for no reason

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Ford doing high bombs rather than kicking for touch or territory is constantly putting pressure on back on England.

Poor tactics really.

 

[Abraxaz]

Why is George still on? Get Dan on for some more experience. Especially if the Lions get an injury.

because his head causes french heads to wobble and get sent off?
/shrug

 

[Scotty]

Wait who went off for Quirke?

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Quirke on the wing?

 

[Ddanno]

Don't tackle with your face, Raffi. You're not Jacques Burger

 

[Which Tyler]

My turn to be kicked off rigbypass.
YouTube is frankly better quality

Super Genius Borthwick's selection really paying dividends

Spencer playing the full 80 after a long season and 80mins in the final
A wing at 15 who has not played a single second of 15 at senior level
A scrum half on the wing
Both locks gonna be playing the 80 cause we've already subbed two backrowers instead*


*Forgot about CCS not coming on yet, but that's still a dumb selection error

Screams:

If we dont know what we are doing how can the enemy figure it out

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Beard getting easily outpaced by a 7 who's got 50 mins more in his legs :/

 

[BrokenWing]

I've seen continents drift faster than Slade moved then.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

CCS looks a lot bigger than the last time I saw him - bulking up for a permanent move to second row?

Hope not, too short and doesn’t have the workrate.

 

[Ddanno]

Ha, never seen a more obvious dummy
