@canefan Irish 5 in the side of a wedge rolling maul was another fundamental decision all referees decided to ignore - you can't say they missed it.

Not really sure what Matt Todd could do there?
Tackle?
Exactly. It ain’t about intent anymore. Or even it being an accident. If you’re in the way, flailing around like a epileptic squid you’re gonna get pinged. Todd got sent off for being a muppet. Can’t even claim cynicism, just rubbishness.
He's directly responsible for both of Ireland's tries. His YC was deserved - you're supposed to tackle.
Please explain to me the rule that Todd broke? He was inside, the vision clearly showed that. He did not make shoulder or arm contact with the irish player's head. It was at best a collision I would have thought? Honest question

I'd go with foul play obstruction. He made no attempt to tackle and simply plopped himself in the way.

Watching the replay now, i hadn't appreciated how much depth the backs gave themselves. Stood deep on 1st phase and used lots of 2nd runners. Really added space from that quick defense.
Oh and Sam fucking Cane man, what a weapon.
Quick edit to give my myself a virtual uppercut for being one of those fuckwits who was carrying on about Read a few months back because he had "lost a yard of pace". What a Muppet. His transformation to this new tight(er) role has been amazing.

This from Eddie Osullivan
“That’s a strong New Zealand backline but it’s not the perfect backline. I’m really happy about Barrett being at 15 because I don’t think he’s going to get his hands on the ball as much. I don’t think he gets his hands on the ball as much when he’s at 15. It’s practically impossible to bring him into the game as much as Richie Mo’unga will be. Joe’s got a very predictable, very solid, very experienced XV, compared to the All Blacks XV which is not as experienced and I would say not quite as solid. Richie Mo’unga has not a great kicking game. He’s not as astute at exploiting (the space) in the back field. That’s good for us. Especially, if it’s wet. It’s another weakness. It’s hard to believe we’re talking about All Black weaknesses. When you compare them to Sexton, if it comes down to a drop goal or a late penalty in a one-score game, that gives us an edge there”.21 - Beauden Barrett made 21 carries in #NZLvIRE, the most ever by an @AllBlacks player in a @rugbyworldcup match, surpassing the previous best tally set by John Kirwan and Buck Shelford who both made 20 against Italy in 1987.
Key.

#RWC2019@Machpants it’s funny listening to the nh analysis,
Listening to Stuart Barnes before the game , Barrett should be playing 10 but they can’t trust his goal kicking, so mounga has been brought into the side. That is a weakness.
They have no idea.

Add Sevu Reece to the list for potential NZ player of the year.
(along with Ardie Savea and ALB)He has been absolutely outstanding, and is playing with huge confidence. Defence solid, high ball work solid, and super dangerous each time he gets the ball.

Watching the game again, Todd injured lead up to his send off. Carrying his arm really weird. Might not see him next week
EDIT: Yup I'm a genius doctor

@Machpants If it's a dislocated shoulder, then surely they will bring a player in. Papalii (although he looked to have picked up an injury yesterday) or Squire perhaps.

Finally getting to the aftermatch interviews and isn't Shag a great advertisement for the game these days - some subtle humour, great recognition of opponents at the right time (making a point of his first utterance being to acknowledge Schmidt and Best was pure class) and also calling attention to Reado for his efforts over the entirety of the season and then his work in this game.

@Siam I hate how you can be part of a maul from the start, work your way through, end up on the side, nek minut you are pinged (think Ardie got done for one of them)

Who is he obstructing. Isn't obstruction preventing someone from playing?
Poor decision which he made worse by inventing weirder call.
When you're in a hole stop digging. Should have had the guts to reverse his initial call.

@akan004 Dunno the article has Shag all 'probably', 'we'll see' and 'old injury inflamed' type thing.

The player who is going to place the ball at the foot of the posts.
Todd prevented that by throwing himself in the way.
Illegal act which prevented a try being scored.
Penalty try, YC.
Pretty easy to work out.
