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

[Jimbo]

Forward?

 

[IT157]

Chesum hit the deck, his knee propels him on for a 2nd movement...

Hell give the try

Extension of the arm on the ground should be a try. Wasn't a double movement.

 

[Reiser99]

What was that from Mitchell

Why go short when they were outnumbered and all of the forwards are tied into the maul so can't clearout

England are under pressure and they don't think clearly.

 

[Rinkadink]

Billy definitely said someone punched him.

Billy says a lot of silly things though.

Still think we need ice hockey style sin bins for punch ups instead of red cards.

 

[Crash Hamster]

Marcus Smith makes things happen.

 

[dirty harry]

Youngs —-> Mitchell fight me

I'll be honest, I'm a Youngs fan, he gets a lot of criticism.

Mitchell has come in and shown a lot of dynamism... and F'd up a lot of promising situations lol

 

[Booboobang]

Samoa kicking for touch has been abysmal. That is horrible.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Yeah deffo forward

 

[Rinkadink]

That was forward?

+Edit

That was forward.

 

[IT157]

Oh that's forward for sure.

 

[HenryChinaski]

Youngs to Mitchell - "Remember, every time you're about to distribute the ball from the back of a ruck and maul, you need to first do 2 pirouettes and a round of head, shoulders knees and toes."

 

[Jer1cho]

Mitchell horrid. Forward pass that.

 

[Scotty]

What was wrong wih the Chessum try? He was short then reached for the line? I thought ypu were allowed to place rhe ball like that?

What am i missing?

 

[General Melchett]

Faz applauding the the off the ball tackle from his opposite number

 

[dirty harry]

Extension of the arm on the ground should be a try. Wasn't a double movement.

Except he can only extend because his right knee flexes and gives him the stability to do so.

2nd movement 100%

 

[BrokenWing]

Forward, but no more forward than a couple leading to tries today.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Chessum would’ve scored that.

[TRF_Olyy]

Interesting that we run that lovely passing move...while Farrell is out of the game after being taken out by the off the ball tackle

He propelled himself with the knee, after he hit the ground.

You can place, but you cant go to ground, use the left arm and right knee to reposition and then reach out
