There is literally no common sense in interpretations like that . It’s a try scoring game and in every game with a VR we look for any reason to disallow them , regardless of the effect it has on the try 

But it was obstruction, do you want them to ignore it because it was a good try?

Yes, it was exciting play and I wanted France to score but it was clear obstruction on a player that would have been a key inside cover defender.

FFS indeed. Do you think Reece Lyne and Kruse Leeming are first picks for England?

I can confirm 30+ less sales for Scotland vs Italy at Workington, after this afternoons test purchase for the Tonga match, £7.50 is extremely reasonable, however a £2.50 'delivery' fee for a walk in purchase is beyond taking the mickey, good luck with that, it's cheaper on the telly.

M Casty has been a very good ref so far and I fear he will get thrown under the bus by some French fans for invalid reasons

Just as you say that, he yellow-cards the wrong player.

But yes, mostly a good performance.

Yes, I think he has been extremely good. Only mistake so far was sin-binning the wrong man.

You honestly think Lomax would have had any bearing on whether the try was scored? 

Yes, he would have been defending exactly where the player was after throwing the dummy. But that's not the point, you can't run into a defender as a dummy runner.

Don't panic, it will all work out when Josh Hodgson comes riding in on his white steed next year.
