[antipodean]

That's a very soft penalty. Boks look terrible against a tired and limited team.

@Kirwan Nah, they didn't get many off loads away compared with usual. More than this half though.

The ferocity of the tackling has taken a toll on Japan's attack

[Rebound]

So a tackle around the ball is high

[Tim]

@Rebound Headgear grab.

[ACT Crusader]

So Colby flips a Japanese player over the horizontal and....

So the ball carrier is allowed to lift defenders over their shoulders and drop them?

Barely touched it. The player was reacting to the player landing on his ankle

[Rebound]

@Anonymous and get as penalty for hurting himself

[Tim]

@Anonymous Don't go high.

And no one seems to be asking them to provide a urine sample...

[LABCAT]

It seems it's not considered as he is not a tackler.

[booboo]

That. Is. Gorgeous.

[Kirwan]

What a massive maul. That’s a good note for me to bow out. Boks finally did something good.

Great effort Japan.

[ACT Crusader]

Mauls are a blight on the game when players join in front of the ball carrier.

[Magpie_in_aus]

Is that not obstruction when you roll the maul into no one?

[Rebound]

@Magpie_in_aus exactly should be a penalty to Japan

[Tim]

Final score? I reckon about 31 -3.

If only there was a law against that.

That's truck and trailer isn't it?

[Frank]

Japan too tired and too small.
