Could do with a halfback that can pass.

He might be inconsistent (I haven't been watching too closely), but he threw a couple of perfect bullets.

Agree, I did see a great one but also saw some shockers

[Stargazer]

@Unite 19-10 to the good guys

[Tim]

@Bovidae Not exactly great lineout throwing though ...

[Chris B.]

Scots apparently reported twice to the ref that they've been eye-gouged - not good to hear.

Yeah, we'd do well to calm down just a little bit. Not every play needs to be a miracle play. Part of a challenge for tournament teams where people are trying to impress the coach as well as win the game?

[Bovidae]

@Crucial Yes, the first couple of passes by Enari reminded me of TJP (passes bouncing to the intended player).

[Bovidae]

@Tim And KO receptions?

Tit for tat penalties

[Stargazer]

Great try Papalii

[Tim]

@Bovidae No excuse. Unless the team just doesn't have it pattern down at all.

[booboo]

Papalii scores. 27 13 kick to come

[KiwiMurph]

Papalii was also instrumental in that maul turnover. Nice.

Willie does a Willie in commentary.

Ref correctly penslised Jocklets

Could easily have penalised the bloke on the ground too for continuing to plsy yhe ball

[Stargazer]

Great work from Falcon (after a Scottish mistake) leads to an excellent ry from Leger.

That blow over the ruck was a thing of beauty - for those like rucking to be players binding and driving over the ball rather than diving missile clean outs.

Was great, like watching soemhing from 20 or 30 years ago

[Stargazer]

Who has been replaced by Umaga-Jensen? Falcon is still on the field.

[Rapido]

Lose needs to swat up on modern rugby. Forwards aren't ruck chasers anymore.
