First topic message reminder :

So to stop myself contemplating who could be a good replacement for Toonie, I've decided to start a match thread.

I believe a player can only be cited if the ref misses the incident.  If he penalised it in any way then action has been taken.

I'm pretty sure that's not the case.

Yeah was going to say - I'm sure I remember instances of yellow cards being turned into reds. Can't remember any specific examples though.

I thought that on field decisions could only be reduced not increased because the ref has dealt with the incident. One would need to show the ref/TMO missed something.

Will Samoa care anyway. They won the game they needed. They didn't have to play with 13 men for very long. They got their TBP. Will lose players for the Scotland game they didn't target and will be good to go against Japan

"Citing Commissioners may cite players for an act(s) of foul play detected by the Match Officials (referee, assistant referee or TMO) and which may have been the subject of referee action. As a general rule, the Citing Commissioner should carefully consider the actions taken by the Match Officials and support the on-field decision and only consider taking action if it is ‘clear and obvious’, based on all the evidence available to the Citing Commissioner post-match, that the player actions justify a citing (red card equivalent) or Citing Commissioner Warning."

https://officiating.worldrugby.org/?module=6&section=48&subsection=162&language=en

So the question is whether the red would be clear and obvious. If it's yellow/red borderline they may support the on-field decision.

And the ref/TMO said the player dropped down so the citing commissioner would need to say they were wrong which again the defence would be he did even if slightly.

What player stays in the same upright position in the 5 seconds before being tackled though?

Poite and the TMO discussed the first incident calmly following the framework. I would be very surprised if that was overturned. cannot comment on the second as I did not see it.

The second one looked worse, in fact the Samoan hooker seemed to KO himself. I thought it would be red but obviously they deemed the Russian player was dipping.

The problem is players are nearly always going to take a low body position into contact, I'm not sure how much this can be deemed as mitigation.

I think the IRB have made a mistake by making the starting point a red card.

If they look into these incidents they will open a whole ugly can of worms.

They both should have been reds. Both were dangerous, in outcome and intent. Both were shoulder first, no arm tackles. Leelo makes a belated attempt to put his arms around the full back but it is after the shoulder to the face impact of the tackle. The Samoan hooker throws himself head first at the full back (two very dangerous tackles in a couple of minutes on the same player begs the question of coincidence or targeting) with no possibility of wrapping his arms around him.
If a review decides either , or worse both, of them are reds can Poite referee again in this tournament?
Should the result of the match stand? I find it difficult to believe that Samoa would have recorded a bonus point win if they played half the match with 13 players.
If either Japan or Scotland fail to reach the QF's because Samoa have one point more than them have they recourse to appeal?
Of equal importance is the fact that the Samoan hooker looked to have knocked himself out: a head knock in the tackle and then a nasty whiplash with the back of his head on the turf. He should never have been allowed back on the field. The footage seemed to show a pitch side medic/doctor trying to persuade him to go for a HIA and the player ignoring him while a member of the Samoan coaching staff stood beside him at best not assisting the medic , at worst colluding with the player.

The refereeing so far has been poor but today was very poor. So poor that it will be dealt with behind closed doors.

So what's everyone's tactics for watching this at work?

It's a doubly distracting morning for me as my sister as due to give birth to my nephew #2 any minute. The baby boy's name is still TBC so a good performance today from any player might push their name into the reckoning. Can't wait to meet my new nephew Willem Finn Greig Hoggy when he's born!

Reckon we can beat these guys? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vcUJtu9mbpM

Jokes aside, Scotland need to just go for it today and win the game first and foremost. Glad to hear McInally say they won't be chasing bonus points.

I'm quietly confident for some reason! Doesn't sit well with me...

If we lose this game Townsend and his coaches may as well walk after - they can't say they haven't been warned after the Ireland game and have had plenty time to prepare for this one.

Scotland will be fine. Unless Samoa drag them into an ugly street brawl of a game. Then it could be tricky.

Agreed on the latter part. I mean, we really should win this game - but the players and coaches have sounded shell-shocked since the Ireland game, just not sure if they have it in them to tough it out.

As an England supporter I think Scotland will be fine with this match. They have bounced back well from recent bad defeats and will be fired up to make amends. Add in that Samoa are not as strong as previous teams they have had at RWCs and the players missing through suspension and Scotland will ease home by 25 points after a tight first half.

Looking forward to the game today. Scotland should be too good I think, but also think the odds on Samoa (11/2) or a 16 point head start, are very generous.

It's just a damn pool that has to be fought with the white heat rage of the play-off stages.

Ireland found that out the hard way.  You can't fecking save energy for later 'big' games. You can't micromanage a future that isn't written.
You just have to play Samoa like it's a semi final.  Players have to put their bodies into it and virtually sacrifice themselves to fate.  If Scotland makes it through, but some of the individual players don't, then they'll have still contributed meaningfully to this WC.  I think the fear of losing can be crippling.  Better the anger of deciding to win.

Have faith in your gut feel. I might even follow your lead and do something similar. Have a little to burn as I did a couple of random bets last night that came in (1st two in the women's 100m final and then Tampa is beat Rams in NFL)

Pretty cagey so far but we've been dominant - hopefully Samoa tire out long before we do.

Could do with an early try from all this pressure.

Well if we can keep samoa nilled for the first forty that'd do us the world of good but we also need a try badly.

He is struggling because he seems to have been given orders to be 'conservative'. That kills his soul!

Maitland looking sharp

I'm worried this is so close - we need to pull away in the 2nd half. Samoa can score any time.

Due to the heat, seems to be a game waiting for a more hectic second half.
