Incredible cock-up - should've been a linebreak and probable England try and he somehow managed to screw it up.

What'd he do?

Thought Heyes was going to make that there! Shame the offload found the only Frenchman for miles.

Guillard is absolutely everywhere. He’s forced 3 or 4 England knock-ons already. Looked like Heyes was away there.

2 knock—ons and a Bergamasco style pass.

Don't bother with the review FFS - needs to be a full red.

That's just a flying clothesline

That's gonna be a red. No mitigation, coming in at speed, swinging arm to the jaw. Only question still to be answered is why the hells hasn't Hastoy gone off for an HIA?

Looked like he was annoyed at himself for having just screwed up a wonderful attacking opportunity with a stupid decision to kick and rubbish execution of the stupid decision, and wanted to try and make it right again.

Absolutely wild - SAtkinson thinks he's not close enough to reach and score, but by the time he's turned to offload, his momentum's taken him over the line and he actually passes it back into play! Thank all the gods that we scored it, cause SAtkinson would be shot if we hadn't!

Aye.
Does the 20 min red start from when he first leaves the field or when it’s decided?

Atkinson has got himself secured on the plane but not sure why he didn’t score himself!

Spot on.

Stupid attempted tackle that'll see him banned for the rest of the summer. Chance for OHC?

A quick moment to say well done to whomever at the RFU decided to give up on RugbyPass and just turn the feed back onto the Youtube stream.

Willis has been outstanding. Nobody else has but a few are getting into it as the game goes on.

The 20 minute red exposes the 6:2. Hill to the wing?

From when he first leaves the field, so we can bring on a sub in the 53rd minute.

Atkinson good.

6 :2 is nearly always a bad plan even if you get away with it. Fortunately only a 20 min red

Just rewatching the last few minutes of the first half and amazed at how poorly we adapted to Spencer taking a knock. I presume IFW had been given the responsibility of being the person who stepped in at 9 if Spencer was buried/unavailable, but it's incredible that the only players who realised it and took responsibility were George and Baxter - surely one of the backs or a back row should've stepped up?
