Sport is a funny beast. A dodgy saffer tackle early which means we play 14 and kick them to death. You never know.
That said I expect us to get hammered and for us to have 14 men.
Have any head to head contacts been given as a red apart from curry and the bloke who smashed du pont? Today’s was far worse than Curry’s as far smaller mitigation. I would love to know why curry’s was viewed as worse.
Saffers got very lucky. I rewound the “clever” block from a pass at 7-0...
I thought he had an excellent game. He did not allow the dodgy Irish scrum which has got away with similar for a while, he penalised nz with two yellows and penalty try when deserved and generally managed the game well.
I still can’t compute how the all black held someone up from that rolling...
The standard of that game was absolutely insane. However, we find ourselves with our dreadful England side as the last home nation standing. Quite amusing really.
But that was for number of fouls then in the last five they did two more. Each has to be a bin. You can’t reset like that. One of them was an obvious stopping of try so could have been given as a pen try. Wales got away with one today.

Staggeringly poor from the ref. Dan Biggar was stood on the wrong side in the ruck and just picked the ball up...
