Looks like Teddy Thomas held that up.
Well we won't hear England complaining about poor referee decisions now....that's an interesting call from the TMO.
Not much โclear and obvious โ there.
Itโs almost as if there are two sets of protocols.
I was thinking that myself. This TMO seems to judge based on โlikely โ while last nightโs one wanted clear evidence despite likelihood.
I prefer the โclear and obviousโ method otherwise it is guesswork. -

Better performance from England than in Cardiff. Especially in the last 20 minutes. Calmer heads in the main.
Which is annoying because there is no reason why that should not be the norm. For sure there can be times when guys collectively lose the plot but with England recently that IS the norm. Something not quite right in the squad I feel.

Glad we didn't play that England
Youngs could easily have played himself in to the Lions

Another thought, how many of that French team had covid a few weeks ago? Can't be good for your conditioning
Well Dupont looked a much better player than his previous effort (maybe he already had it then).

This South African forward pack is going well ๐

Conditioning is one thing. Not having played for a month is another.

Yeah, we can all remember pre-season training, thinking you're quite fit and then that first game of the season. There's fit and then there's match fit. Plus of course perhaps not being right on the button mentally.

Still 8-3. Mostly Ireland with territory and possession. Hamish Watson keeping Scotland in this.
Stuart Hogg has been excellent again - probbly no.1 fullback in rugby ATM.

Highlight of the game so far for me was Stuart Hogg clattering Jonny Sexton. Beautiful!
