If you're not striving to improve, you'll end up going backwards.
Farrel needs to shut the gently caress up. He's such an annoying dipshit.

The first one is worse, because he can clearly see the advantage he's providing as he does it.

The second one, I think the argument is that it's like a ball you juggle forward and then regather while it's still in the air. I don't think that should apply to a ball you never regain control over.

That first one reminded me of a mankad, but I’m not up enough on the rules and customs to know if it’s as taboo.

Wait what's wrong with the first try?


Maybe England should spend less time complaining and more time focussing on the game :shrug:

Mankads are more like noticing they keep giving away scrum penalties, so you just constantly force scrums until someone gets a card.

The ref told Farrel to have a word with his team and while the England team were huddled to hear the refs instructions from Farrel he restarted the game.

The referee turned the clock off and then immediately back on again, and the only person he mentioned this to was Dan Biggar.

Fair enough. That's pretty bullshit.


Wouldn't that normally be the case though because the assumption is he's going for the posts and they restart the clock?

Basically as soon as the huddle broke up Gauzere blew time on instead of giving any time to set with water carriers still on. It was a weird situation.

The water carriers are on the pitch too loving much imo and shouldn't be a factor in these things unless they're directly in the way. Farrell had more important concerns than their presence.

Yeah, water carriers being on the pitch takes the piss at the best of times and play wasn't near them so made no material difference but it was his gurning point I suppose.

Eh, they'll just demand their games be delayed and win when nobody else can field a full strength side.

There's been so much casual obstruction in this game, they can't start calling them now.

That could apply to 6 penalties in the last 10 minutes.
