Argentina vs England first test - Sat 8.40pm

[R3dders]

Game's been going for 5 minutes 'every single box kick right in the middle of the pitch'. Maybe pass it sometimes.

[loudnconfident]

Gardner the ref. No chance.

Looks like it so far..

[Oakboy]

Gardner the ref. No chance.

A contest: which is worse, the ref or the commentary team?

[R3dders]

10 minutes in

Passes 1
Kicks 3

[Beasties]

Ref’s defo decided the game’s gonna be all about him.
Can we turn his mic off?

[FKAS]

and Slade gets absolutely melted. That needed to go past him to Steward and Muir.

[Which Tyler]

Surely they've got the wrong English lock.

Head contact is surely Ewels

[Oakboy]

and Slade gets absolutely melted. That needed to go past him to Steward and Muir.

The definition of a hospital pass (from Atkinson?).

[R3dders]

That's seriously poor.

[FKAS]

When they said foul play England 5 I did have to double check that Ewels was wearing 4. Thought he was on for the hattrick for a second there.

He’s always the same. Absolutely horrendous ref.

[FKAS]

The definition of a hospital pass (from Atkinson?).

Yeah wasn't a good option from the youngster. You'd have thought a centre as experienced and skillful as Slade might have done something rather than step into the contact mind.

[Which Tyler]

Coles goes backwards, so there's enough mitigation if they want it.
I hate that rugby decided that a severe sanction wasn't severe enough, so they'll try a lesser.

ETA: I still fucking hate the "someone else has posted, so you can't" thing on this here

[Stom]

This is a hard enough watch as is. But the ref is just so poor.

[Captainhaircut]

That’s not a penalty and then we get the pleasure of listening to Gardner told a load of fucking shit.

SHUT
THE
FUCK
UP

[loudnconfident]

Wew lad Ford!

[loudnconfident]

*"&£ me Gardner

[Stom]

There’s just no carrying threat , and we’re not capable of anything else. Just poor selection

[Which Tyler]

George remembers the RWC

[Stom]

Wait, what? 3 random penalties and we get a yellow? Absolutely insane. How are we meant to have a game of rugby here?

[FKAS]

What did he bin Seb Atkinson for?

[FKAS]

Also that drop goal from Ford was pure class.

[Which Tyler]

But... He wasn't offside sir

[Captainhaircut]

Wait, what? 3 random penalties and we get a yellow? Absolutely insane. How are we meant to have a game of rugby here?

Genuinely some of the worst refereeing I’ve seen. 2 offsides, a high tackle that got a yellow and a breakdown penalty that wasn’t a pen. None in the redzone.

He’s an absolute disgrace this guy and always has been. This is sort of shit is why Rugby can’t break the mainstream and become financially viable.

[R3dders]

What did he bin Seb Atkinson for?

Going offside, a couple of minutes after a team warning for constantly going offside.
