We lost the short ones as well. There was 2/3 really not
straight throws from NZ that went unpunished as well as a
plethora of forward passes

I'm no expert but it looked to me like the ball was being thrown
to the intended man (Itoje) and the Kiwi kept stealing it as we
kept repeating the same damn lineout. Who was calling it at that
time? Poor calling I thought.

Itoje was having to reach in front of his face to catch them,
they were being underthrown.

All 5? Even that doesn't exactly absolve the caller of blame.

For the two most important of them, yes, and I'd argue a 3rd
too. Additionally some of the ones we won we were lucky they
weren't contested as the throw was short.

So JG and the caller to blame?

No, just JG. The caller is not responsible for the thrower being
shite regardless of where he's throwing it to.
We didn't just go to Itoje, it's just that Itoje is the banker
ball. When we went longer the throws were worse, we just got
lucky.

Fair enough, I'm obviously remembering incorrectly. They seemed
to go to Itoje in the middle time after time.

Was in gods in west upper on halfway and it was clear NZ closed
the line, just a bit to start with but as they were allowed to
get away with it they increased every it every throw. They were
mobbing us by the end. It was ridiculous.
They were also increasingly offside but so were we. It was
weakly reffed in the second half, no question. But Lawes charge
down just felt offside as soon as it occurred to me and it was
just offside enough on the replay to to be called. Boot on the
other foot and Twickenham would be screaming PEN!
They are so sharp with the ball in hand though. That multi phase
spell end first half when our defence held so well until they
broke us out wide was electric.

If you are in the Dog and Duck 3rd xv and 40 minutes before the
match you still have not met the other forwards, you might
limit yourself to a couple of calls.
if you are the second best thrower in England, who has spent the
previous two weeks working with the pack, I would expect you to
have a few more - and be able to implement them.

They did seem to get away with tackler not rolling away a few
times in the closing minutes of the game which was very
frustrating.
