Womens RWC 2021 -NZ to host

That's classic. Scotland penalty on the 22 in the middle of the field, so kick for touch and get the lineout a metre behind the 22, then hit it up in midfield ending up a couple of metres short of where you kicked it...only to turn it over.

Maybe be a bit smarter and tap it or ask for a scrum?

This Scotland V Aus game is a good watch.

The Sweaties leading 12-0 after about 30 and if they get close line outs have Aus really under the pump
In the maul.

I had no idea who the sweaties were, ozzie cos they lived in an oven, or jocks cos the can't Twitter the heart.

What a big waste of time for that review

Ref seems to be really good but has the most random advantage lengths, whistled a knock on at the start and I swear the ball had only just hit the ground from the knock. Then let's one go forever, to the point where they end up back at the scrum on the other side of the field but about ten metres back.

Let's the players fuck about too much too.

[Bones]

Scotland no urgency. Should have tapped that and taken advantage of the numbers. Going through the motions of taking a lineout again because they think that's what you're supposed to do.

Another long review.

AR trying to talk her into a red.

So now you take a scrum Scotland, so you're against 12.

[ACT Crusader]

So two YCs for the Oz hooker?

[Bones]

Haha! How can they have another hooker?

Yup.

[Bones]

I think Scotland just got bluffed out of taking a scrum.

[ACT Crusader]

shame they didn’t keep going with the maul.

[KiwiMurph]

wonderful defence by the Wallaroos.

Yeah. They shouldn’t have kicked for touch as the wind was only giving them 5 metres. Should have taken the scrum anyway as Oz were putting backs into the scrum for numbers.
I’d love to see if they really did have three nominated hookers. Looking to bring a starting prop back in to fill the role?

[Crucial]

Tough for Scotland. Two close losses.
Straya will be scraping for hookers against Wales.
They really need to tidy up their tackles. Should have had a red against NZ and probably at least one more yellow.

[Bones]

@Crucial yeah I guess if your hookers play like that then you might be inclined to nominate a 3rd, but I really doubt they did. They'll be laughing about that.

I hear from all the British commentators that all these games are being played in Fangaree. Here's hoping there's no games in places like Worsesesstershirry if they have the cup in the UK.

Bill McLaren had to say someone played for the whakarewarewa club when Scotland toured here back in 96. He then had the good sense to apologise and say that he hoped he didn’t have to say it again. Such an old pro.
