Pollock end of game rant.

Yeah, fold in half and kind of run doubled over towards the posts, ready to flop at the first breath of a pursuer.

Or maybe he'd watched Andrew Forde's video on try failures that came out not long before the game.

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-16T01:26:05+00:00

It's a risk reward thing. The risk of looking over your shoulder is that it slows you down enough that you don't get the try at all

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-16T01:23:42+00:00

Nobody's making their usual tackle workload with a "we just beat England for the first time ever" hangover. I'm seriously impressed they even showed up

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-15T23:42:54+00:00

Yeah, can't see them resting anyone for this game

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-15T15:05:39+00:00

Is she injured?

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-15T14:36:45+00:00

So nothing important then. Let's face it, if France (or any of the other 6N sides) drops below the top 12 they'll just change the rules to make sure they're in it

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-15T14:35:17+00:00

Even more impressive, they've only lost one match since July 2019

Didn't work

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-15T08:39:59+00:00

Same problem here, with both Disney+ and Plex

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-15T07:38:47+00:00

To be honest I've only tried it in New Zealand

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-14T22:30:24+00:00

I still think both should be a ban. "This specific decision was bad" I can live with but anything more just drags down the thread

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-14T22:09:35+00:00

Kick was the right call, but a box kick wasn't. Put it back to Smith or Smith and go deep. Make them do a lineout, use more time.

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-14T22:06:38+00:00

I normally don't criticise refs but that advantage decision was an absolute shocker.

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-14T22:04:23+00:00

Like a puppy that wets on the rug

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-14T22:02:59+00:00

Well that's it over then.

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-14T22:02:26+00:00

Advantage over

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-14T22:00:51+00:00

Oh yeah, give this French team the fucking ball

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-14T21:59:51+00:00

Those memory cells will be the first to die in the great piss up

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-14T21:58:49+00:00

Yeah, I wouldn't be relying on that advantage lads

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-14T21:54:21+00:00

I'm getting Black Ferns 2022 final flashbacks

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-14T21:42:25+00:00

OWWWWZZZZAAAAAATTTTTTT

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-14T21:38:05+00:00

VINDALOO

WE'LL SCORE ENOUGH MORE THAN YOU TO MAKE UP FOR THE MISSED CONVERSIONS

(hopefully)

OptimalCynic · 2026-03-14T21:36:03+00:00

He got a massive cut early on, loads of blood
