    Scrumhalf's "failed intercepts". Ruck turnovers where the player doesn't support their own weight, has another go at the ball.

    Yeah, no way Ball should have won that penalty despite what the comms said. I thought WR was getting strict with players putting their hands on the ground in front of the ball before attempting to grab the ball. That directive has obviously been ignored in this game and others at the RWC so far.

    Wales are looking slick when they move the ball at speed.

    But.
    Was carbon copy of a PK against Wales, so no point banging the T1 bias drum for that one. Been consistent.

      Georgians getting the raw end of the 50:50 decisions by this clown of a ref.

      Lucky the touchie isn't blind. Wales will win easy so enforce the laws ffs.

      Wtf are you talking about?

      Scrumhalf's "failed intercepts". Ruck turnovers where the player doesn't support their own weight, has another go at the ball. Tighthead prop getting done, etc.

      All shit that happens in the course of a game but has vastly magnified negative effects on tier 18 teams.

      Letter of the law correctly officiated by the ref on the first one.

      If you don't think that was a genuine attempt for the intercept on the second one, then

      a) you need to take your Minnow Suit off
      b) you haven't watched G Davies play. He does it every match. Normally catching it.

      Breakdown has been well contested by both sides. Ref has been on it. Wales been penalised once if not twice.

      And early on the Georgian scrum was getting stuffed and deservedly penalised.

      Not when the ref makes up part of the law.

      If you don't think that was a genuine attempt for the intercept on the second one, then

      Then we have a different interpretation of the word reasonable.

      I'll leave it there to be polite since you're emotionally invested in the game.

          Ref just penalised Wales for collapsing the maul, when AWJ had turned over the ball.

          The bias against T2 teams is terrible.

                    Eh? I never said the ref was biased against Georgia, just wrong on that penalty and others. The same by refs in other games.

                              Why is a collapse a couple of metres out only a penalty at one end and a yellow at the other? Both mauls made good ground?

                                No collapse and that would have been a try regardless of what the ref ruled

                                    Except that shouldn't make a difference. He had ruled out a try being probable given the number of defenders around. So all you are left with is 2 collapsed mauls.

                                      Why is a collapse a couple of metres out only a penalty at one end and a yellow at the other? Both mauls made good ground?

                                      Because Wales turned the maul over and were advancing away from their goal line. Ref got it wrong

                                      Except that shouldn't make a difference. He had ruled out a try being probable given the number of defenders around. So all you are left with is 2 collapsed mauls.

                                      Yep. Got it wrong twice.

                                      On his decision, Wales had repelled the Georgian maul and was advancing.

                                      If Wales hadn't collapsed the maul - his interpretation - then Georgia would have been further away from the Wales try line.

                                      The opposite when Wales were advancing towards the Georgian line
