Dumb as fuck. Yellow.
No probs with the decision, but why can't we have consistency?

World cups will be decided by this arbitrary carry on. Retallick might be on a flight home after todays red. Glen Young will be back on the pitch in 8 minutes.

He hit McDermott way harder then Retallick hit Himeno. The body part he hit him with shouldn't matter. Sean O Brien sparked Naholo out with his arm in the Lions tour.

Your coms are spot on , the Scottish replacement lock gets to lineup up against the All Blacks next weekend but Retallick is on a flight home for arguably an offence that was lesser than what we saw this morning ..
Also the quicker they do away with the deliberate knock down the better ..it’s not foul play , it’s a knock on -
Scotland did everything they should have in the final build up. They put pressure on the Wallaby forwards to not make a mistake and sure enough Fainga’a made it. Penalty awarded. Excellent play Scotland.
But then the tightness in throat started when the approach to the penalty kick looked different. Then the execution of the kick, it didn’t look like a clean strike. Sure it’s a pressure kick to win a test match, but to me that was a choke.

I thought Pearce was extremely good in a niggly match full of inaccuracies. Would like him to ref NZ games as he communicates so well.
Thought Kinghorn was candidate for mom but killed it by lining kick up straight when he had been hooking left all day. Thought Scotland made a lot of poor decisions to give away a match they should have won. Ritchie is a poor captain.
McDermott was horrid at times and others like Paisami Foley and Banks quite ordinary. So well done Hooper White Valetini and the locks for pulling Australia through. -

His attempt at the conversion in the first quarter was also away to the left.

Watching back now so comments in delayed time.
First 10 minutes or handling is pretty good and McDermott is having a good game as we attack from depth and use some second man play.
How the fuck the assistant ref finds fault with our scrum in the 10th minute I have no idea. Scotland's hooker pops first and their loosehead is elbow down, boring in. Reset was the correct call.
Good try from Scotland as Holloway turns in with the dummy runners.
