That didn't look right. If the defending team has to release a tackled player the attacking team shouldn't then be able to drive them forward.
How can a team actually legally defend in that situation?

You can't, some tries you can't stop, that's fine

They’ve come in to support their man, they’re not obliged to let him go like the tacklers are

If they had realeased him, they wouldn’t have had the opportunity for a drive.

I'd feel much more assured if Sullivan was at 10

Shit was that an aggressive tackle from Choat without going flying in out of control or staying back on his heels? I thought there was only the two extremes.
@Bones Choat has been good

If Sotutu's knees are on the ground (a tackle) he shouldn't be able get up again.

Agreed. He can be driven forward, but if he gets to his feet he must release the ball first.

Really like Choat as a player - maybe too small for next level?
Tom Christie is playing some good rugby as well.

Because the player he smashed was high rather than diving. Great effort trying to pretend they're analogous.
