Jake White: ‘Illogical’ water breaks need review
Evans: “We’ll stop for a water break.”
Sexton: “We just had a break [two mins for TMO check], we don’t need one.”
Evans: “I get that, you called for it. OK, water off then… I only said it because your team asked for it. Nothing to do with me.” pic.twitter.com/MJ9BwHi8h2

Utterly bizarre scenes yesterday of a ref letting a team have a water break *after* a conversion. Dullest time wasting.
We need to speed the game up again, too much slowing down is allowed.

The current arrangement is the worst solution to a problem that just needed refs to be kept in control.
Too many water carriers invading? Warning then penalty. Simple.
The current sham of water breaks is killing momentum, confusing fans and is literally – a waste of time. https://t.co/88VX4kx3nn
