Absolutely every single England player was in front of the kicker by the time the ball left Farrell's foot at kick off.

Dayglo already calling out Fiji’s “fouls that should have been given, but weren’t”. Sour cnut

The hero shot of Farrell tackling. "He's really keen to leave something on his opposite number". :bimbo: :yawn:

He rolled away twice! Tackled player rolled back on him twice.

It's not even a no arm tackle, he just crouches on the ground to be run into.

Proper old school red all over Smith's jersey there!

Another good finish by Marchant.

First contact is head, upright, no significant change in height? High danger. Red right?

I'd like to have seen that in real time from that angle. You could see it from the TV angle as a potential issue but the slo mo angle was better.

Curry might just be a really stupid penalty machine.

Yeah, would be a very harsh red I reckon. But it’s Fiji, so an easier decision
