I don't think Rugby is well suited to an analysis of the rules as you will find infringements in nearly every phase of play. It could become a very long drawn out spectacle with every try/play being overanalysed.
Perhaps there should be a time limit or a max no of times a specific TMO can interrupt?
Captains challenge. But you only get one in each half regardless of whether you're right or wrong.

8 waterboys running on every time there is a scrum is really shit.
Something else to stamp out.
Fucking disrespectful for that Irish guy to start arguing with Sam Whitelock during the other game I might add.
Take your little vest and bugger off pal - this is a penalty, not a stoppage.

I thought it was funny when Sexton went off and Pearce asked if he was going off for a HIA and the water carrier first said no, then realised Carbery couldn't take the kick if that was the case and changed his mind. There was an abuse of the HIA protocols if ever I saw one.

Australia chance their arm at the end. Get turned over. England run it back and score. England 32 Australia 15. All over. Dull as dishwater that.
I am a tad uneasy about that try as the replacement Pom hooker made no real attempt to get back into his defensive line but lo an behold was able to take the inside pass and scoot away for the try despite being at least twenty metres in front of where the breakdown was when England got the ball.

@higgins no ruck - play on, unfortunately.
Further to that: the option for Ikitau was to hit the deck and wait, but it wouldn't have made a lot of difference - only Leota and McDermott were in frame and there were about 8 Poms on their feet.
