For how terrible they've been, England should be pretty happy to be only 3 down

Vaders Jester posted:It's a nebulous law, if a team spends 5 minutes failing to do anything with that advantage, surely that's on them and advantage over, not just until they score a try or gently caress it right up? so when do you draw the line? there's no time limit to advantage specified in the law

NGL I didn't think the England scrum would be skull hosed like it has been.

Julio Cruz posted:so when do you draw the line? there's no time limit to advantage specified in the law That's pretty much the problem with the law. It's entirely discretionary and if a team is in the 22 it's basically until they score or gently caress up which seems pretty dumb.

But they can’t gently caress up too quickly either. Graces should have come back for the second penalty against Faf on the near side by the 22 considering there had been about a zillion phases from the initial call and England weren’t able to do dick.

They look like a team that has already played their final last week, where the stars all aligned. Today, they've looked nervous and out of their depth.

Eddie will take a injury in the front row so they go to uncontested scrums.

England have played 3 1/2 world cup finals South Africa 2 1/2 and they've scored a combined total of 1 try in all that time.

One tuilagi break could make all the difference here, still tight enough. For all SA's pressure they haven't been great going forward.

At this stage, I don't mind if England win. Other than Billy V and Eddie, they all seem like good people but if they do lose and it's to a bizarro Garces penalty, Woodward might have a heart attack and save us ever hearing from him again.

Yeah if England win they'll have definitely deserved it after that semi performance. Countdown until Cole goes down injured though? MyChemicalImbalance fucked around with this message at 11:27 on Nov 2, 2019 |
