@Crucial I can imagine he would have only just started waking up as they lifted him onto the stretcher if he had dared do it to Buck Shelford.
Yeah Buck was tough eh! Grrr! AWJ is a big pussy! Buck would have smashed him man.

@Crucial I'm off to a client's today so may toss them a rugby ball and do a nice legal hit at waist height. Should be ok with that eh? It's not even penalty material.
make sure you wrap

Worthy of sanction due to direct contact with head

As AWJ said in his post-match interview, if I'd hit him I would have been the one being sent off.
What's as disappointing as WR / 6N inaction is the fact that no English player or coach has come out and said that it was out of order.
Biting, gouging, butting, kicking, ball tickling.
No place in rugby union.

@MiketheSnow Buck would have knocked the ref out too just with an angry glance. He's tough!

- High and no arms tackles. Numerous instances from both sides. No issue with the red card, poor technique and a falling George North but no arms so recklessness was there. I thought the clothes line on Young’s in the build up to Daly’s try was worse, although not so dangerous. I felt the dangerous tackle issue was not handled well at all.
Just watched the Tuilagi tackle. Red all day - flew in, no arms, and first contact is to the head. Eddie Jones has gone off the deep end, but he's dead set wrong.
Yeah - that's not a surprising red, so the question is - What's Eddie's game?
I reckon it's a bit of referee intimidation. Next time a ref's got a close penalty/yellow/red decision to make, he might think, "Eddie's going to have a crack at me" and so give a bit of benefit of the doubt.
Maybe Eddie should get a week in the bin!
Needs more than a week.

Re Marler
I'm not buying into anything other than his action being quite obscene and totally out of order.
It was essentially a sexual offence, designed to elicit a response to get an opponent sent off.
He deserved to be laid out, am impressed by AWJ's restraint, but in lieu of that he deserves at least the minimum punishment.

It was a really fucking weird thing to do too. Like the boxer who bit the other guy's ear or the League player who stuck his fingers up the opponents' bums.
I hope World Rugby punish Marler and his team severely:
IMHO Marler should get a 6 months ban and made to have counselling before he can go on a Rugby field again. England should forfeit the match and be docked 12 points.

WTF!!! How soft in the head are you?

I just don't get the way the England Rugby team of late sometimes behaves - particularly this current bunch.
I really like the way the England soccer team generally carries itself (particularly under Southgate) considering the shit that gets thrown at them and the cricket team seem to handle themselves pretty well compared to their peers.
Every team has cockwombles every now and again, but this lot seems to have a serious over-representation with Marler, Farrell and Itoje leading the way with stuff which really has no place in the game. Even Mike Brown, who seemed to be a decent sort of bloke, got involved in this crap towards the end of his career.
Perhaps I'm being unfair, but some of the stuff England got up to on Saturday was way out of order.
