Didn't bother watching it. Beautiful sunny day where I was so I went for a long walk. Ireland won easily.

Same here. Italy are a waste of space in the 6N.

[Victor Meldrew]

Wales score as England team seem to lose concentration and are unprepared for a kick from a penalty..

Farrell losing it with the Ref.

French refs need to be banished from rugby. That's atrocious.

Because he's Frenching it up making it look like he's been paid off again.

How so? Hits his hands then his leg and goes backward into an English player.

[sparky]

England look a bit shite. 17-6 to Wales.

It clearly went forward. He dropped it. His own shrug when it was awarded says it all.

Pretty funny to see it happen to England after the lions bullshit though.

Watson scores for England after a run of penalties. 17-11

[sparky]

Wales finishing the half poorly. Lots of mistakes and ill-dscipline.

[Bones]

@sparky absolutely superb timing from Williams there though.

[sparky]

Good steal by Liam Williams, Wales needed that. They were stretched in defence.

I know he he dropped it but it hit his leg and went backwards and then hit an Englishman before it hit the ground. Under the laws of rugby union football I’m pretty sure that’s not a knock on. The issue you’re really complaining about it is the use of a video ref because if there’s no TMO then there’s no way that’s anything but a knock on

[sparky]

Some of these England forwards looking rotund and slow. Jamie George was very lucky Josh Adams knocked it on there.

[Bones]

@junior it went forward. Or was he standing still?

[sparky]

England with a penalty right in front to finish the half.

[sparky]

Half time

Wales 17 England 14.

Anyone's match.

[sparky]

Martin Johnson " Most controversial half of Six Nations Rugby he can remember"

[Bones]

Holy shit just saw the lead up to the first try too. That's crooked refereeing.

[Bones]

"how do you cope with the shame of coming out...as a referee"

Brilliant 😂

[sparky]

Really terrible refereeing before the First Try. Appalling. That would be shameful at junior level.

Bad refereeing for the Second Try. It was a clear knock-on.

Why do World Rugby let the French nominate referees who are clearly sub-Test level for important internationals?
