Absolutely nothing wrong with that whatsoever! Not even a penalty for me

The tackle on White? It's direct to the head. Mitigation was correct to reduce it right down to just a penalty. Anything more than that would have been very harsh. Once you make contact with the head it's almost certainly a penalty at the least.

Geez that young French winger is electric. Makes Shane Williams look big but does it matter when you can finish like that at just turned 20.

By the law yes,but for me it was just an unfortunate incident. Law needs changing

An impressive first half from les Bleus, outclassing à Scottish side completely. Cameron Woki (wonder if his dad’s a Jock!) is outstanding. Young Louis Bielle-Biarrey is quick, and only by looks about 15!

Agree, can’t believe they take all that time and don’t give the knock on which was quite clear. Very odd…

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

Double movement too,OKeefe is having a shocker. Clearly bounced twice. At least the TMO is doing his job properly!

Looked like double movement for that Scotland try. Makes it more interesting for the rest of the game though.

Red card is probably correct but a shame as the game is really getting interesting. Scotland have come out fighting this half.
