Go in the corner, keep the pressure on

[invergowrie arab]

Excellent first quarter but need to turn territory into points.

[peasy23]

This has been brilliant so far, only negative is the lack of points.

[S7C]

These mistakes are so fucking typical.

 

Which is a shame because that aside they've been excellent.

[Mark Connolly]

They're hitting rucks from every angle at the moment - that penalty there being a great example. Barclay pinged for being cleared from the side by Fifita

[invergowrie arab]

There is a very fine line between playing at a high tempo and frantic. In our line speed breakdown it is excellent. With ball in hand it's producing unforced errors.

[Mark Connolly]

Yellow card incoming.

[John Lambies Doos]

Red card

[same_ol_g35]

Losing Watson to injury will be a massive blow.

That's a red, but they'll only get a yellow.

[Mark Connolly]

f**k off TMO - that's a yellow card every time

[John Lambies Doos]

Joke

[Mark Connolly]

That's utter pish - he's pushed Price out of the way and still had time to tackle Hogg.

Guaranteed if that's Lee Jones on MacKenzie it's a yellow.

[Dunning1874]

That's a disgusting piece of refereeing. Genuinely dangerous to allow a player to get away with that.

[same_ol_g35]

The movement of the scrum half did block him into the player, but surely that should be the difference between a red and yellow and not a yellow and penalty only?

[S7C]

Anyone other than NZ and that's a yellow.

Also ffs.

It was never a red. It was a nailed-on yellow though.

World Rugby need to clamp down on TMO's talking sanctions down. When the ref can watch it on the screen, it should no longer be a discussion.

[invergowrie arab]

It's outcome based officiating now. That's a yellow. It's also shitebaggery from the ref to be talked out of it.

Also another panicky handling error. 

Still playing brilliantly though but we could really do with being 10 up at the half.

[Acastus]

Shitbag ref. Need to stop the knock ons thats 5 now 3 in good positions. 

[same_ol_g35]

Yeah, there has been a massive kick up on social media about this happening in the Wales game. Where the TMO apparently was reffing the game from the truck.

[Acastus]

make that 6 and 3 from Seymour.
