I just don’t get why penalties are given when one scrum just demolished another, that just penalising someone for not being strong enough, they can’t change that
Problem there is that the Landers prop lost their bind because of the pressure. That should be (and is) penalty.
Under the laws of course...I just don’t think it should be a rule, he hadn’t done something reckless or against the rules to get an advantage, he’s folded under pressure...that doesn’t feel like something you should loose points for

@Bones well thats fair enough, all comes down to those micro moments of how the ref sees it..
Yeah however that's why I thought they announced these new focuses - take that out of it. Sure if a player falls over, let them get up. If a player is brought to ground by the actions of the oppo...play the ball.

@Kiwiwomble yeah is a tough one really, because ultimately a dominant team/pack should be rewarded for thier dominance, but not sure it should be braodly applied

I thought the front on replay showed he wasnt close to being held.

Frizell again with good low body position and leg drive.
Funny how he looked up and saw Mounga... decision made, I'm going straight.
Yep once he got through that first tackle, it was only backs to take on.

Great move and well done Smith.

A Smith the differrence so far
Saders moves too complex -
...marshall just said it shouldn’t have been a penalty...I might be drunk

So does that mean it should be a penalty 😉

That ball from Taylor was a mile forward!
