    Carty didn't catch it, but surely he was taken out in the air?

    Our lineout is still shockingly poor, but I've no idea what we're doing at scrum time. Gardiner's decision making is mind boggling but we need to just use the ball when it's there and not try milk it.

    Should have called a mark from that pen, would have less pressure on the kick

    So Japan can come in from the side and now Angus Gardner is letting them take players out in the air and penalising the taken out player for knocking it on.

    This is rediculous. Next he'll be letting them take misseds penalty again for someone in the crowd moving.

    I know we're not playing to our best here, but a team with our record in not giving penalties away to suddenly going to this... I don't buy it.
    And I'm not a fan of anyone criticising refs unnecessarily, but I'll be taking a second look back at a this and watching Gardner closely.
