Wasted by having Townsend as coach…

What’s Townsend’s issue with not using subs like every other country? His game management is terrible. And how is Turner on bench when Mathews isn’t even in squad? #SCOvARG

Well done Ref and team πŸ‘ so they can make decisions for themselves! #FRAvRSA

Surely tucked arm cancels out height of tackled player #FRAvRSA

Hope there’s not more incidents for you to cry about πŸ˜œπŸ˜‚

Last reply - if you believe that’s a red, every ruck and tackle will be stopped to be a penalty or otherwise, maybe Rugby isn’t for you…

If they believed it to be red they would’ve given it immediately, or viewed incident via TMO and discussed it between the 4 members (ref, 2x touch judges, TMO).

Again, never said it was, as I said above there was no intent to tackle player while in air, had there been it would’ve been red, as would spear tackles or going above horizontal… but you know, ref, touch officials, TMO, bunker official all happy with the yellow…

08.11.2025 19:57 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Yes because that’s head contact, show me the head contact between the players?

And who’s in the bunker? A qualified official… my my you are slow

Not what I said, in the interest of player safety HIA should’ve been conducted, it has no bearing on punishment, nasty looking incidents don’t always equal foul play.

What does dictate the outcome is intent (both looking at ball or tackle while in air I.E. Ashman in sco game). Pen & yellow card βœ…

I’m also a sports therapist, rehabilitator & first aider for a club so know all about duty of care, just cause an incident looks nasty, doesn’t mean it’s worthy of a penalty or more (hence my HIA comment)

A referee course? Like the officials that agreed the yellow was suffice have been on?

Rugby collision, if he landed on his head, he should also be off for HIA. Intent also matters, both looking ball not knowing either were there. Had he looked at player and deliberately tackled him then yes it’s a red. You sound quite new to rugby.

Never red

Both players at full speed, both looking at ball, nasty collision but should be yellow only #ENGvFIJ

Both try scorers as well as great dynamic players, Horne a great kicking option as well if needed. Don’t know what they have to do to be included

Too many chances bottled, NZ definitely not the team they once were, no intensity in first half then couldn’t maintain 2nd half intensity with subs. Didn’t make enough of yellow cards. Still, at least we didn’t lose cause of a selfish player like Hogg again πŸ˜‚ small wins #SCOvNZL

08.11.2025 17:02 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Townsends subs weren’t the right option, haven’t had the same intensity we started 2nd half with some of them. White/Dobie & Turner in particular, ridiculous Horne & Mathews no involved #SCOvNZL

Maybe Lee Radford should go back to League… defence awful at times #SCOvNZL

Scotland beating themselves same as usual. Ashman switching off for try, Kinghorn & Fagersk. Knocking on in good positions, Graham going for an extra roll instead of placing ball back and conceding goal line drop out. #SCOvNZL

Only 2 penalties and a warning already? #SCOvNZL

Ashman is pish, 2 big errors already #SCOvNZL
