That’s a red, surely.

Direct to the face and completely intentional. WTF.

Red?
That's a deliberate shoulder to head

Stupid Bench really should’ve picked 6:4 bench for this one. Idiot.

Can't believe the TMO wasn't calling for a review on that. Shoulder to head.

Yes, just because it wasn't a tackle. Utterly bizarre.

O'Keefe obviously not caring about offside runners interfering with chasers today.

Earl got lucky with play-on for a stone-cold penalty, and possible yellow, and then that.

It's lovely play all round. The call to speed up the play from the lineout was needed. It's exactly why you move Smith to 15. Ford even runs the dummy round the back of the ruck to draw defenders back to the openside so that Dombrandt has that little more time to make the pass, which is perfectly timed. We desperately needed a spark like that.

Ollie Lawrence: test standard athlete but Prem standard rugby player. Far too many silly mistakes from him.

Well that was crazy. So many little errors in those last few minutes that could have saved that one.

Yes, on balance Smith probably ends in credit but what a howler to end it

Oh f**k off. Without Smith, we’d have been nowhere near.
