had to get tea on for kids, what was that try chalked off for? Came back expecting a restart and saw it was a penalty to SA instead

I reckon that’s the 5th block by SA but only one given

It's forward.

It comes out of the hands flat, the fact it travels forward is immaterial. There is a World Rugby video that shows a guy throwing the ball backwards over his head but it travels several metres forward from where it was passed
Regardless of momentum he’s clearly shoved it forward out of the hands.

I don’t think we are far away from senior ref being the TMO and the on field ref just looking after the basics

SA are being efficient and playing at like 60%. A quick look at the benches means a 20 point SA winning margin is still on.
No Sir

This is going to be close.
Only if you keep playing at like 60% and don't use your actual 1st choice flyhalf.
Are you still unhappy?

Sleightholme did not do well there. He was at a disadvantage thanks to his midfield, but a better attempt needed to be made on Kolbe.

Such poor discipline.

Yes. Look for something very slow.
