    That is an absolutely disgraceful decision. That is as clear a red card as you will ever see with the new law. Ritchie out of the rest of the game and with concussionprotocols coukd even miss the next game, and dependingon passing the tests or not could even miss the Ireland game.

    try to keep the pressure on with the line out and can't chuck the ball in straight

    Both the yellows are clear as day reds.

    Compare that with currys red in the first game.

    Rugby is a joke

    Australia are not the team they used to be. Wales in control, Australia poor ……. Wales will win easily.

    Wallabies shooting themselves in the foot big time

    appalling line out then i'm sure i'm not the only one that just knew they would give away yet another penalty

    quite a few more penalties to come for Wales i suspect

    Lack of accuracy and discipline will cost Australia. That lineout 10m from the Wales line ended with 3 points to wales.

    Eddie Jones soon to be sacked by Australia I think. Talk of him going to Japan. No matter how unsuccessful you are, there’s always jobs for the boys.

    Just shows how much of a mockery it is to make the draw for a RWC finals 3 years before it kicks off.

    Eddie Jones left England in a mess and carried on by making Australia a mess.

    Australia should appoint that bloke Matt Williams from Virgin Media Sport. He seems to know a lot. Has he ever coached at International level?

    we do at least have something to play for in the remaining two games, top three sides in each group automatically qualify for 2027 WC in Australia

    Hope we rest a few key players for the Romania game (Russell, Duhan, Darcy, Darge, Dempsey, Kinghorn) so they’re fit and injury free v Ireland.

    Could never cheer on an Eddie Jones side, so I was happy to see Wales go through (even though it meant Gatland winning). I do suspect Jones will be emptied: another failed experiment!
    Madness, as you know, is a lot like gravity. All it takes is a little push.

    Been a great servant and by all accounts one of the loveliest men you’d ever meet. Hope he enjoys a long & healthy retirement.

    Off to be a commercial airline pilot. Hope he lands his planes as well as he landed this score at "rugby HQ".

    Reasonable team for the weekend, managed to keep a balance of fringe players along with some main stays.

    Team: Smith, Graham, Harris, Redpath, Steyn, Healy, Price, Bhatti, Ashman, Sebastian, Skinner, Gilchrist, Crosbie, Watson, M Fagerson.
    Replacements: Matthews, Sutherland, Nel, Cummings, Darge, Horne, Kinghorn, Jones.

    I am heading to Lille tomorrow morning for the game, nice to travel to a Scotland away game absolutely certain we will win - doesn't happen often!

    Watching the Samoa Japan game, and I'm getting reminded why rugby players have never been known as style icons.

    Is it just coincidence that the 2 worst hairstyles are sitting in the bin?

    My money is on the other Samoan kicker joining them.
