    Raynal really screwing Fiji here. Think they should have had a penalty from that first scrum, Sinkler is getting turned inside out.

    "Ben Earl winning a bagful of World Cup medals"

    - ITV


    That's it lads, the tournament is over, England have it won apparently.

    Penalty England, that’s game.



  • Posts: 2,457 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    8 tied into scrum. Opportunity



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 9,915 ✭✭✭blackwhite


    Raynal has handed this to England in final 10 minutes. Shouted leave it 4 times at Lawes and wouldn’t ping him - and then penalised Fiji for a hand on the ground when they hadn’t gone near the ball

    Farrell's stupid smirk is 50% of the reason I dislike the England team so much.

    If Fiji pull a try out of the bag it’ll need to be under the posts



  • Posts: 2,457 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    You might have the pleasure of knocking it off.. again!



  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 9,396 ✭✭✭fitz


    Penalty and a yellow imo.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    That should be a yellow IMO but will be make the big call?

    That was deliberate



  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 9,396 ✭✭✭fitz


    Stonewall yellow card.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    How is that not a yellow?



    ITV saying Berry gets involved because he's Australian.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    That was deliberate and cynical - that should absolutely be yellow IMO. Touchjudge seemed to think so too.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,340 ✭✭✭Eoinbmw


    Absolute horseshit



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,422 ✭✭✭omega man


    Balls. Fiji could have easily won but too many errors sadly.



  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 9,396 ✭✭✭fitz


    FFS, that's a ridiculous call.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,874 ✭✭✭Dick phelan


    England very lucky



  • Posts: 2,457 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    No yellow for Farrell. Then blows up that



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,280 ✭✭✭testtech05


    Farrell very lucky not to get a yellow there.....dont think Fiji will be inviting raynal into the dressing room for a beer

    You'd forgive Fiji for ranting about the officials.


    Absolutely brutal again.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,729 ✭✭✭Dave_The_Sheep


    Missed several penalties in the first half that they really should have scored. That's the difference.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 14,974 ✭✭✭✭ednwireland


    they really have to do something about the reffing of the tier 2.

    I can see a big game from England really wouldn't surprise me if they win a semi. it would be really ugly though.

    Victory for anti rugby - hope ther hammered in semi



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,340 ✭✭✭Eoinbmw


    There needs to be a conversation about some of the lop sided refereeing after this tournament!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 154 ✭✭magic17


    England into another Semi Final. Winning games when it matters. They'll be hoping France and SA smash each other to pieces tonight and feast on the scraps next week.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,629 ✭✭✭Augme


    He's always been an awful ref but Fiji can't have Amy complaints either. Rookie errors throughout the game and you can't expect to win a world cup quarter final with a kicker who woukdnt even cut it at Sunday league level.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    ITV are disgraceful to listen to, "look there'll be better teams to come, we all know that but this is exactly what England needed".


    They've been at this all tournament.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,007 ✭✭✭TheRona


    You can't win matches like that with non existent kicking. Annoying.
