had ruined a high profile match in front of 83,000 paying spectators and God knows how many as a TV audience.
I think I see the problem here...was it only English fans watching?

Ah you mean the issue of NZ playing a different system to the rest of the world?
It's called scoring more points than the other side....
And you’re still bloody doing it. Cheats. Cheats I tell you. Why hasn’t the RFU outlawed this?

At the time I thought it hilarious and also somewhat deflating that it took our brains trust so long to work it out. But would I care to watch a game like that again? Not really and certainly not if I were a neutral spectator.

I would. It was excellent. And I'm England leaning.

IRFU and FRU are doing pretty well at stopping it!

Who is your next NH opponent? Only once before have you lost three on the trot to NH opposition.

It's the poaching of players from places like Tokaroa...

A South Sea Island is a South Sea Island. I see no distinction here.

The Fish and Chips are better. Ask Brad Shields.

I'd rather ask Foster or Hansen.
They look as if they would have more intel.

Sky UK rated Charlie Ewels 82 second performance a 4/10 !

I get the feeling they don't rate what else he could have offered if he stayed on...almost a par performance from him!

That’s the way to improve the average of your player rating. Some blokes just do less damage when they’re not on the field

By chance I was in crowd that day. The faithful were howling, but an Italian fella behind us correctly interpreted why no penalties given!
Hilarious when ref told Haskell he wasn't his coach! -

'“Charlie’s X-factor is the non-X-factor stuff. He might not knock over two blokes, but he doesn’t lose collisions and will keep you on the front foot. In defence, he’s very mobile. He makes good reads. He’s solid and doesn’t miss tackles.'

I often turn off after red cards, the result is usually not in doubt. Neutral - absolutely. Wrecks the game.
Too much home brew bro! Don't think he's talking about this weekend...

@mikethesnow you forgot to mention....
"100% red" - Tadhg Furlong could be in hot water for 'clothesline' on England's Henry Slade - Ruck
Ireland kept their hopes of a Six Nations title alive as they finally saw off a valiant, spirited England who played 78 minutes with 14 men after Charlie Ewels’ red…
Edit: consistency would go a long way to helping officials.
Expect two citings today or tomorrow
This is the problem with their approach: One instance defines a game and the other's have no effect whatsoever. WR seem oblivious to this fact.
RCs during games should, IMO, be left to egregious instances of foul play.
