    Would have never backed Parkes to get Stockdale there

    Stockdale was slightly held up by Beard. Had he got 3 or 4 more yards without that Parkes would have been burnes.

    North off, so back line will have to re-organise.

    That scrum is where you get the hometown decisions. In the side twice already.

    Was he the one at the first maul? Thought it was Ryan.

    Sound like Best is talking to the ref to suss out the issue.

    Can I ask is there a set time for advantage, or is it done on how many phases they go through, ground taken up or where on the pitch it is, or the offence?

    Wales had a long advantage there before the try. Ireland had one a minute later that seemed to only last a few seconds. These happens in most games. Is it at the referee's discretion or is there a point when it is definitely over?


    Ignore*

    Over to the questions thread with this one.
    Advantage can be territorial or tactical. There is no set time or number of phases. Its open to ref discretion. Length of advantage will vary depending on where on pitch the penalty would be awarded.

    1 on Beirne completely in at the side. So blatant and Gardner looking directly at it.

    Then an excellent lineout steal by Ryan.

    Our second rows have shown up well today.
