    Yeah, I'm starting to think these "smaller" team match ups were the places to pick up the points.

    Yes so so I

    Go to TMO with any doubts- don't change your mind based on incidental tv replay after making a decision

    Guys (m&f) Ton-ga or Tong-ah???

    ITV using latter pronunciation is annoying me

    Loving this. Georgia are smashing it up the pitch the only way they know how and Tonga aren't afraid to run from anywhere. It's a bit stop start but it's a lot of fun to watch.

    Georgia clearly on top, Tonga giving away too many penalties. Good game.

    The level of difference between Owens and the ref last night is massive. So clear and concise and understanding of what to let slide and not.

    Wish he'd refereed the last world cup final. :-((

    Definitely the best in the business

    Fair play Nigel. The other officials are being too pedantic with the new directives. But if common sense ffs.

    That was a nicely-worked try.


    EDIT- Or maybe not, that's the problem with muting the commentary and looking away.

    Did Tonga just steal the Joe Schmidt playbook?? Pity it didn't come off

    Danger is refs will rely too much on the tmo and stop refereeing in real time. Not him though.

    Think Nigel got that wrong. Didn't look forward. Or possibly Chris Pollack.
