Ref got that one right. Poor form by Wood. It's about time they got a grip of it.
Are players that thick that they think neck rolls are ok despite the fact that everyone knows they are being targeted?
[quote=CaptainFlashheart said]Just spotted the cup and 2003 logo on the England shirt. Tacky.
None of the other home nations would stoop that low.
I'm not convinced about this using the video replay to change all the decision making, even if with hindsight it's correct
FFS - this game is taking forever!
No, the grounding wasn't fine - he dropped the ball forward so had no control.
Ah, fair play. I dispute that momentarily losing contact with the ball demonstrates a lack on control (when combined with downward pressure a fraction of a second later), but I suspect that's what the law says.
What a massive buzzkill having those tedious speeches before the game was. Why don't people ever tell them no?
If Fiji just had a little more nous when they turn the ball over they could mount dangerous counter attacks.
How many kicks have Fiji missed now?
Otherwise you could throw the ball forward and tap it down at the last. Correct call by the Tv ref. Th erfe was wrong to stick his arm up straight away. Also incorrect to penalise england for holding on there.
Never mind, the saviour of rugby has just come on.....
Can the idiot commentator please stop calling him NANDOLO. It's Nadolo you numpty.
Is Nadolo the chunkiest place kicker in the RWC? I'm loving him! 😀

Languid. Lovely!
England should score 20 points in the last 15 as Fiji look tired.
Farrell already ingratiating himself with the ref. Didn't take long. 🙂
England looking second rate here. Youngs good, Watson good and that's about it. Back row very quiet.
Christ.
Wood's quiet (and well off form), Billy and Robshaw both playing well. I'd have subbed Cole, oh they have and sudden;y won a scrum......
Never mind Kryton. The Barbour brigade will #carrythemhome in the last ten.

Don't worry! The Saviour is on the pitch now! He's probably out of position, but still.

Just like that England try 🙂
Forward pass off the floor surely?
HAVE SOME OF THAT!
Lovely try.
Can we have more Mike Browns in the backs? Too many have been unimpressive.
A win is a win tho!
Phew.
Looked forward from May but oh well

New Zealand Flat.
England rampant apparently.....
and the previous pass, I thought, but no TMO intervention, of course. 🙄Forward pass off the floor surely?

Looked like a knock on in the contact to win the ball from Fiji to start the move in the first place. No reply from the TV guy though.
No video replay of the forward pass? What a surprise!
There wasn't a forward pass.......
Get in! Hopefully. ..
May can't jump in to the tackle like that!
Cant award the try there. But I have a feeling it will be.
Wrong decision.
Bollocks, we could've done without that bonus point.
And it is.
May can't jump in to the tackle like that!
The TMO will now review it, before the conversion. Don't worry.
Oh.
Hahaha, there are some picky people tonight!!!
TRY!!! All day every day
😀 😀 😀 😀
Hope you all enjoyed that!!!!!!!!
😀 😀 😀 😀
no reason not to award it. check yourselves
If I was an England fan, I would be shitting myself after that performance
Yeah. That was crap.
Picky? He didn't get the ball across the line, and not a single camera angle showed any evidence that he did. The tmo made the wrong decision. Again.

If I were a welsh fan, I'd be shitting myself about the fiji game.

It was very, very clearly on the line. Try.
Mrs Torso will be pleased you're not then ?
Let alone that the ball was lost forward at least once if not twice in the build up.
Anyway, well done England, came good in the last ten to secure the bonus point. Having seen that performance, the group is going to be even more interesting than I thought. Gatling will be licking his lips I reckon.
