It was Ben Skeen who didn’t see the forward pass in the quarters.
We all of course have our own views and I agree the Retalik did knock the ball, but in my view it did move forward from Underhill to George. Good job it didn’t matter

Whether it is Wales or SA next week, if England play like they did today, they should win.

The difference is that when he does exactly the same for Tigers people say he rushes out of the line.
The reality is it just illustrates the slow, lazy defensive line at Tigers over the past few years.

Re: ENG vs NZ - RWC Semi
There is an anti English bias. Think of the quarter final where the 4th official saw no forward pass in spite of the Australian receiver being a couple of yards ahead of the passing player.
A Northern hemisphere win is seen as a bad thing and England winning the worst of all.

Shame for Heinz, perhaps in hindsight Jones should have took a third scrumhalf instead of McConnochie.
