    @MN5 I once got accused of doctoring CCTV footage in court and I stifled a giggle. The magistrate wanted to know what was so funny and I enlightened him on my lack of prowess in front of the computer. He said he felt my pain.

    My only strength is extremely offensive and inappropriate memes

                  Because he was in front πŸ˜€

                  I meant generally it can be hard to tell if someone is in front or not because of the camera angles etc. Not necessarily referring to that try. I can see why that try wasn't overturned It would have taken some balls to do it on that evidence.

                  Stuff it, I'm going to hell, but I read this as 'Hopefully an Irish fan produces a potato with a hand drawn line across the pitch'

                            Endless kicking bores me.

                            That start be England was awesome and I actually clapped the TV

                            The first Irish try was held up for all money

                            Ireland are still great at holding the ball but don't know what to do with it

                            Youngs is stopping England being a better attacking team be being too slow.

                            The whole tournament was turned on its head this morning

                              From the footage he was in front before the kick, after but at the time of the kick, there wasn't anything conclusive showing him to be in front. One of those freeze frame doesn't tell the story situations.

                              Still, the better team won.

                                Would have been delighted if NZ had played like that in Autumn. For the record England scored 4 tries and NZ none.

                                  Today, England are the obvious favorites for the WC title. But things may change till October. Don't forget the ABs looked pretty exhausted in November when they faced England and Ireland. I think that a rested and fit AB team is still the best in the world. This England team have a few players who aren't worldclass (Daly, Nowell, Kruis, George, Sinckler) and their bench is far from impressive.

                                  Moody - Vunipola = even
                                  Taylor/Coles - George = advantage NZ

                                    All the 6 Nations sides, with the exception of Italy have much more advanced, disciplined and relentless defence systems than the 2018 ABs. Is Scott McLeod up to the task of outwitting Cueball, Shaun Edwards, Andy Farrell and co? It looks probably that ruthlessly-drilled defence will shut out the AB's attack flair in 2019.

                                    On the other hand, the 6 Nations sides are all offside a lot. So much so that their defensive systems rely on lazy officiating. If World Rugby persuade the refs to start policing the defensive offside lines again, advantage back to the Rugby Championship sides

                                      Just saw Slade's try. He was in front of the kicker, no question. I'd be pissed if that try was awarded against the ABs.

                                      @Crazy-Horse Have you seen the slow motion shot? Slade was behind the ball (just) at the moment when May kicked it.

                                      I thought disallowing Mako Vunipola a try before half time was harsh.

                                      More dubious to me was the Daly try. Nowell took out Stockdale when he didn't have the ball.

                                        Ahh, you're allowed to tackle someone who has possession and just because he's juggling it doesn't make him immune. Otherwise you could juggle it through a defensive line.

                                          I know that but Stockdale was going backwards and he had lost the ball at the time of impact by Nowell.

                                          You could argue Nowell was committed to the tackle when Stockdale still was fumbling around with the ball. Surprised no discussion about the try anyway.
