    That'll probably end up a red card for Chile's skipper buy I reckon most of the contact was chest/shoulder. Very upright tho.

    Chile's maul defence very good. Not short of pace and Japan don't have quite the size to overwhelm them. Legs will run out tho

    Chile need to play more territory and speed things up.

    Based on Curry that should have been a RC

    The inconsistency is what’s killing us as the spectator not the initial decision

    Shambles

    Chile must have a lot of 7s players - their ruck work in terms of turnovers is very good

    I'd have to look at it again but think curry was head first or at least simultaneous. This one was shoulder/chest first and whiplash head knock.

    It's it safer?

    Dunno mate. I'm not a doctor, as Eddie would say 😜

    Chile do a good job of attacking the ball when tackling - always trying to force an error.

    Must have a lot of 7s players. So quick on their feet over the ball

    Nope, with a few exceptions, they play for Selknam, the Chilean club in Super Rugby Americas.

    Might be a few of them getting Euro or Japanese contracts after that display. Being together in Chile helps their cohesion, but their departure would make room for more to come through.

    In future with some experience it’s fair to say that Chile might be a bit hot to handle for some countries.
