Disappointed with Owens and his team there.

Argentinian shows poor technique in the tackle striking ball carrier's head - red card.

English player shows poor technique in the charge down striking the kicker's chin - penalty only.

That is what's going to drive people away from rugby.

I also wonder if refs would be more relaxed if they didn't have to worry about the impact of issuing cards. Like NRL all they would have to do is put it on report and let a panel of experts deal with it.

[Stargazer]

Consolation try. A very good one, too.

@MrDenmore said in RWC: England v Argentina (Pool C):

@booboo Yes, I agree, Lavinini should pay the sanction. Hit him in the pocket. But not the people paying for it. Do you see the distinction?

I do. And think you're wrong.

Why should a thug have free reign on the field?

It's sport. As I have said sport is random.

Players make mistakes. And know there are consequences.

Way hey. Argies score. But still need 3 tries to win

[Chester Draws]

What is it with these two sides kicking away possession?

This is awful by both sides.

[MiketheSnow]

Best try of the night.

That's how you create space England.

The clear tackle in the air as well. A couple of pretty obvious YCs not given as Owens wanted to give the most charitable interpretation possible.

Cracking try by Argie.

[westcoastie]

another in the next 60sec will put the shits up England and bring out their cynical side.

@booboo Money is involved. Forget ‘doing the right thing’.

Sorry. Still confused.

What were the last 73 minutes then?

[booboo]

@chimoaus said in RWC: England v Argentina (Pool C):

I think Argentina checked out once the card was issued. Worst game of the WC I have seen so far.

Scotland v Samoa?

If Lawes had been in the bin or in the stands, yes.

[Billy Tell]

Bit of a dud game in the end.

Argentina have sadly regressed since 2015 rather than kicking on.

[Chester Draws]

Still more kicks by England with quality ball. I don't get that they are a threat, sorry.
