The expression on Dupont's face when looking at O'keefe showed what he thought of his decisions!
Note to Farrell, you don’t have to say the ref is a dick when you can merely think it (and use appropriate facial expressions).

After the Namibia game, I'm amazed Dupont can use any facial expressions!

I wasn’t expecting a try fest.
Loved that lineout move, reminded me of my time as a hooker.
Except I wasn’t that quick off the mark. And I’d probably missed the right jumper.

At Glasgow airport trying to keep up with the score via BBC website. They are all over the place, there's too much happening and they cant keep up to the point it's actually amusing watching them try.

Flatman right, surely calling for the mark and taking the scrum is purely psychological.

I thought you had start in field when preventing a kick going out?

With Etzebeth off think I would have gone to the corner there. Any other player, three makes sense. But surely there was a catch and drive there.

Yeah, take the kick. Maximise the amount of time in the next half SA are down to 14 (I suspect Etzebeth will be back).

Anyone got any mitigation for Etzebeth?
Best I've seen so far is "He's 4 inches taller than Antonio"

Didnt know you were a Welsh international hooker, Sandy.

The way this world cup is going, it will remain yellow. Now if Dixon was reffing it would be no foul play carry on.
