And then Atkinson gets a yellow for repeated infringements. Seems a little harsh.

This ref...

Not the greatest debut thus far, hospital pass to Slade, knock on in mid air and a yellow.

So, today.

Cummings was excellent
Earl was terrific
Jones was very good

Apart from that, I’m not sure anyone was good or bad.

Keenan looked like a player who was coming back from injury
Kinghorn looked like a player who had just won the Top14.

I'd question some of the on-filed leadership - eking out scrum penalties against a 13 man team was poor

I was impressed with the Waratahs 7, the type of classic pain in the arse from start to finish 7 that the Aussies seem to churn out from a factory somewhere in the boondocks.

Argentina are butchering tries here.

He was excellent

I haven’t seen the game and don’t know the score but I came here to say; it’s 8pm, a full 9 hours after the game started, and I have just sat down to watch it to find it is not available yet on now tv on demand. 9 hours later. Premier sports, the so-called budget option, has all games available on demand within minutes of them finishing. There is no way I will manage to go much longer without finding out the score.

If this is the standard sky work to they can go fuck themselves if they think I am ever going to pay their extortionate subscription fees. Absolute tinpot service.

That's not good to hear, I'm in London on the day of the second test and I was hoping to watch it when I get to my sister's in the evening

From the last two games before today the 'Hits' extended highlights came up first on Now TV, the morning after the game. The full replay was around 24 hours after the final whistle for the Force and Reds games.

Don't know if that is standard.

There has been a full re-run on one of the Sky channels late on the same evening as the games but you would need to watch as live and couldn't skip anything.

I see a few reports coming out tomorrow questioning A Farrells leadership

Panic merchants.

I'm catching up on England's game from last night. Just reinforces what an absolute joke it is that Ford isn't with the Lions.
