    Hope Mike Brown has a good suit, I suspect he will be needing it this week.

    <p>I'd put that at 100% ineptitude. Half of which was England's and the other half Poite's.</p>

    <p>If Ireland had any possession and a functioning lineout they may have stolen that,</p>

    <p>Depends whose team you're on.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>It may be illegal to run into a tackler. Very confusing this game.</p>

    <p>Are Irish fans worried about the game vs Italy? One the plus side Ireland might come out of it with something to show for their campaign.</p>

    Reckless is the word I would use should have been a red. So he can expect a sit down. Would love it if this saw the end of players kicking through rucks. Never been a fan of that the law says you can ruck the ball out not fly hack it out. To me that means foot in a backwards motion.

    Can you actually be cited for something the ref and TMO go over in fine detail and decide is not even a penalty?<br><br>
    I understand citing for something that is missed during the game, but doing it for something that has already been analysed that thoroughly would feel like a big vote of no-confidence in the refereeing team on the day.<br><br>
    FWIW I thought it was a yellow card offence.<br><br>

    You can still be cited after getting a YC I thought, so I don't see why not.

    Don't see why not, the citing commissioner is independent of the match day officials and may view it differently, as so many do<br><br>
    Although each comp has its own rules so may vary slightly

    Hmm. The idea of a ref, TMO and citing commissioner all viewing the same footage and coming away with such differing views (2 thinking it's not worth a penalty, one thinking it's worth a red card) strikes me as a bit worrying, but I guess you're probably right.<br><br>

    Brown is a long way off his best at the moment in truth. Moreover, while I didn't think he was targeting the player, it was definitely risky and rather stupid. He might benefit from a bit of a break.<br><br>
    I wouldn't mind so much if the next cab off the rank was anyone other than Alex f'ing Goode.<br><br>

    I don't rate Alex Goode as much more than a average Premierhsip player. England should play Nowell at fullback and Yarde or Daly on the wing if Brown is unavailable.

    Honestly I would rather have Nowell, Daly or Watson than Goode.<br><br>
