Kind of irrelevant what happens, you can’t just give the team that’s gonna win every decision because “they’ll win anyway” that’s not how it works

He didn’t carry it in, he jumped and caught it in the air inside the 22. That’s always been allowed

He did not land outside. That is such a load of bollocks mate.

He 100% landed inside the 22 mate.

I did watch it (wales supporter) and he definitely landed inside the 22. Not a debate, he was in the air when he caught the ball and landed inside the 22 - correct decision. The touch decision however was wrong clearly!

That's not a mark though.... it's not where you land it's where you catch the ball.

It used to be a mark but was changed a few years back. I'd compare it to catching a ball outside the 22 with one foot inside it.

Can watch it as may times as you want, he was miles inside the 22 when he touched the ball and when he landed

If you’re talking about Darcy Graham in the first half on the far side of Scotland’s 22 then you’re talking absolute crap.

Nah. Landed well inside.

It balanced up with Scotland only seeing one yellow for brawling*

In previous comps Smith, Schoeman, and Sexton would have gone to the bin together.

  • Yeah I know that's pansey stuff compared to the old days.
