  10. @joshourisman Have they? All the articles I'm seeing say that #WorldRugby is refusing to publicly admit it. It's a bit of an awkward admission though, as the issue is that the knock on occurred 4 phases before the try when TMO is limited to 2 phases, rather than it not having been a knock on.

  11.

  12. @SceNtriC otóż właśnie. Natomiast Czeska TV (CTV, państwowa) transmituje na żywo wszystkie mecze – transmisje dostępne online bez ograniczenia (bez konieczności korzystania z VPN), a poza tym w przerwie każdego meczu jest krótki reportaż o czeskiej młodzieży (i nie tylko) trenującej rugby w lokalnych klubach i prezentacja różnych elementów gry w rugby z wyjaśnieniem szczegółów i niuansów. No i konkursy dla widzów :) Bardzo mi się to podoba, że tak promują tę dyscyplinę, mimo że w rankingu #WorldRugby Czesi są zaraz za Polską, czyli w 4. dziesiątce. I że Czesi mają swój hokej – tak jak my siat... przepraszam, piłkę nożną ;)

Also, the English #10 has blond hair and blue eyes and sings Swing Low Sweet Chariot really well and brought a lawyer with him, which are all further grounds for mitigation..."
