England replacement Joe Marchant appears to make contact squarely with Adams' jaw as he is tackled to the turf, an incident completely missed by all the officials.
Banned South Africa Director of Rugby Rassie Erasmus returned from a five-week Twitter hiatus to highlight the incident in a thinly-veiled cryptic tweet.

Four players Eddie Jones should drop – and who should replace them for Ireland
We pick four players who we think deserve a chance in the England XV following the unvoncincing win against Wales in the Six Nations.
#1. Elliot Daly
JOE 5/10: "Steady enough outing after being drafted in for the injured Manu Tuilagi. Kept wales honest in attack but fell off a couple of tackles, in defence."
Replacement: Joe Marchant
#2. Max Malins
Telegraph 5/10: "Not that sharp, spilling one pass from Smith while England were on the move. One very good take from a Youngs’ box kick retained possession but turned over too much ball."
Replacement: Adam Radwan
#3. Charlie Ewels
Rugby Pass: "Secure under Wales’ restarts, Ewels did a lot of the close-range carrying for his team and went very close to claiming the opening try midway through the first half."
Replacement: Joe Launchbury
#4. Harry Randall
Telegraph: "Biggest start of his career so far and Wales were better than Italy at slowing down his ruck speed. Box kicks were better, with one low effort working perfectly putting Williams under horrible pressure. Off after 60 minutes."
Replacement: Ben Youngs

- Jordie Barrett over Damian de Allende is far from being correct. The hype around Dupont is also overreaching, he's probably 4th in the world and has been since the 2023 WC. He also avoids certain matchups which is strange. The rest of the list is pretty good apart from minor subjective biases.JasonMarlow16-09-2026
