Works best on desktop, but if you play on a phobe you'll get the idea.

Is that something that's ever absent tho?

Not even a word about a possible offside, just shows how bad the analysis of refereeing decisions is. Comintators afraid to even mention it.

BOHSBOHS

Davies was miles offside

Larbre34

I just rewound it, irrespective of the gold 9 step before the pass, he was in an offside position when the ball exited.

Baffled as to how Poite didn't ask to check the offside. He might well have been onside but he was so far ahead and started his run from deep early that there's a decent chance he wasn't.

I’d bet my left bollocks he was offside.

Lucy8080

Thought he was on. I rewound it too. I'll wait for the studio verdict

Ah lads . We have talked ourselves into hysteria these days. It’s a contact sport

Leading with the elbow or forearm is dangerous.


And Hooper himself taking out Biggar without the ball earlier on was lucky not to see a yellow. He has a history of this.

Been a lot of high tackles let go in the game.

NIMAN

ITV , no mention of an offside, even from Michael Lynagh

Ah stop man . No way . He didn’t lead with forearm or elbow. He cradled the ball and then his arm rose up during contact . It’s not like the one parisse got done for a year back for staide.

Any consistency in the WC and Hooper would have been in the bin. Big teams not being officiated the same way sadly.

Shocking how many regular posters don't know the laws of the game.

You can't lead into a tackle with your forearm.

The sanction is a penalty kick.

I don’t think he lead with it . It made contact in the end , but I felt he braced for impact and then pushed off

Nor on eir,

D'Arcy making the point about genia taking a step.

I couldnt see a clear shot of when genia picked the ball up. The over head angle starts when he'd already picked it up

I'm watching ITV they didn't have a look , anyone watching on other channel?

Eir, likewise.

Offside every breakdown again.

The ball carrier did lead with the forearm. It wasn't at head height though, a few centimeters higher and it could have been red. They brought this in to avoid concussions. Intention doesn't come into it. These are the rules.

Happy4all

Handy drop goals. We don't try them too often

MadYaker

Hard to see Australia come back from this

We saw different things. We will have to leave it at that .

FrancieBrady

Aus don't deserve to get out of the group tbh.

Exclamation Marc

Superb try. Lovely to watch

osarusan

Casual rugby observer here with a question - I've noticed something recently that I hadn't noticed before so wanted to ask.

When a team plans to do a box kick from behind a ruck, two or three, or even 4 players will join the ruck, but all they really do is just make a line, or train, off the back of the ruck, to give the scrumhalf more space for the box kick, so it can't be blocked.

Is this something that has recently changed in the rules, or just something teams have started doing?

Wildly Boaring

The drop goals a Stephen Jones thing?

Going well for them

Happy4all

Super game

Think they got away with a forward pass in that try

Nice try from Aussie, questionable final pass though.

If Ireland were down by this margin against a tier 1 nation, you'd write them off. Still feel Aussie can make a match of this.

Edit: last pass looked ok

Don't let the opportunity to get the boot in pass by anyway!

elefant

Some change in pace with switch at out half!

NeonWolf

Aussie player tackled in the air surely

STB.

Davis is so fast.


Nearly a deja vu.

Its a very valid point about the frailty of Irish rugby.

NeonWolf

Ah lads this is a joke this TMO stuff. Come on

MadYaker

Poor tackle alright but not dangerous

alchemist33

I dont see how the Welsh player could have done any different there

damianmcr

Come on Poite red card

Weepsie

That tackle is worse than the "forearm"

thelad95

That's absolute bollocks

Mantis Toboggan

Refereeing has been a joke in this tournament

sydthebeat

Good decision
Jumping into a talckle is the opposite of tackling low

At least all sets of fans can whinge together. It’s been a ****show for everyone . Like spinning the winning streak wheel to see what sanction you get .

Think I would have least liked to be on the receiving end of the forearm

MadYaker

The welsh guy gets pinged for that but Kearney gets an arm in the eye and has to go off and nothing happens?

Have to use the TMO, once the framework is used and correct decision is come to use TMo every few minutes if the ref wants!

They have all been calls that need a second look

Lucy8080

Wales are ravenous for any intercept /counter attack here. Any slip from Aus is gonna get punished. Exciting from both sides.

Hooper loved that. To be fair, it was a great tackle.

STB.

Australia are trading at 9/2 in running !
