The TMO doesn't help on the knock on though. What was he looking at?
Why did he get the first one wrong? "The water carrier...." shouldn't have been on the pitch if the only reason the game had stopped was to give one side the chance to avoid further punishment. Isn't it a similar effect to footballer going down with "cramp" to give their side chance to talk tactics and refresh? I don't think enough time was given and communication could have been improved but how much do teams talk in that scenario and how much extra should they be allowed to say? Something to decide going forward rather than out-of-the-blue on the day.

I'm sure the England camp isn't just discussing those two moments though given their ambitions.
