If I was defending a one point lead with 2 mins 20 secs left on the clock, I am not sure I would have kicked possession away...and then do it again a bit later! ![:smt044](./images/smilies/044.gif)

Re: RWC 2023 Fixtures and results
I am watching the TV and wonder if anyone can tell the name of the sport.
Fifteen men in a side running with the ball and passing it to score something called a "try".
It looks rather good, indeed I could become a fan. It looks most exciting.
Does England have a team?

Looked a bit of crossing before the Irish try, chap in the blue scrum cap helped create the gap he ran through, just the bump happened a bit before he darted through
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

So they crossed off Chessum’s second try for propelling himself on the ground but completely ignored the lack of arms in the tackle that stopped him.

Scotland needed to take those 3s. They've got the wrong mindset, imho.

I think you enjoy the game more if you don't know the rules. Anyway, you're on the same wavelength as the referees.

How is the ref still on the field? Deliberate knock on if ever I saw one.
