Play on? Surely that was tackled in the air?
He's got it now, but it should be play on. For me, a player who jumps to catch a pass is putting himself in danger.
I agree, but ever since Sinckler managed to get a Lions tour drawn by it, apply the laws consistently.
It's a dilemma isn't it. Should the ref enforce a dumb interpretation merely for consistency's sake? Or is that just a ref making a dumb interpretation?
There is no principle of stare decisis in rugby.

A f*ck. Wales didn't deserve another try.
Haha, and the commentator calls Wales the only undefeated team of pool play. Yeah, heck, some games were canceleld.
Really dumb thing to say. Were NZ, England and France not "undefeated".

I don't think a player jumping to catch something because he has to to reach it is the same as jumping into a tackle.

He's a dumb fluffybunny.
I suspect he may have meant to suggest they are the only team to have won all their matches.
But wait for Japan perhaps.
And a no result recorded as a draw means both England and NZ have won all their matches to date.

"Wales the only unbeaten team at Rugby World Cup 2019"...
Ummm...
England?
New Zealand?
Japan (to date)?Stransky I think ( the fuckwit that doesn’t understand what undefeated means).

I wonder whether referees at the RWC realise that some of the players from non-english speaking countries might not understand what they're saying. About 15 minutes ago, Gardner said something to an Uruguayan forward and ended with "Do you understand". Looking at the expression the player's face, he didn't understand anything of what he was saying.
To be fair some English speakers struggle to understand Australians.
Yis.
Fark yis
Uruguay bash their way over and Wales are lucky not to have someone in the bin.
Should be one in the bin regardless. There were a bunch of PK infringements in that movement which resulted in the try.
Shouldn't have even happened.
Legitimate and fair turnover from James Davies which Gardner got wrong.

It was the main commentator (Dallen Stanford) that made that stupid comment.

No injuries, no cards.
We know our A team.
We can go in to the France match confident of reaching the SF.

@booboo @Stargazer @Snowy @Bovidae haha sounds like mission accomplished by Stanford 😎
He gets a bit excited, but I don’t mind him especially when there are some dour people sitting next to him.

@ACT-Crusader Well at least I know his name now if that is what you meant. I also think he is a fuckwit.
