@Mattasaurus yep, a team that was within a score of France and 2 of Ireland...
THat looked a harsh penalty
agreed But it was against France , in France, plenty of calls (50/50s) to go their way yet in this tournament I expect.

haha what an odd call
Wrong call because it clearly did go in and was hooked and came out at the back.
-
Italy are just passengers in this game. Not even bothering to tackle now.
-
@Jailbreak7 is odd cos thier d line is moving up and in position to make tackles, but they arent.

Next scrum the ball went under the locks feet. I don't mind scrum feeds a bit crooked but that was absurd. What is the AR doing?

What has happened to Italy between the 6 Nations and now?
I can only suggest the 96 - 17 last weekend hasn't helped their mental fortitude.... where some teams galvanize under pressure.. others capitulate....
-
hate how they ping you for holding when you clearly lose the ball
-
France look determined to rack up a big score
-
that was a nice break by Italy, undone by a knock on
-
This game looks like it will grind down to a glacial pace ....
-
better passage by Italy now they have touched the ball

I see we're just going to ignore France being 2m offside at every phase.
and they are coming in to the rucks at 3 and 9 o'clock too... pretty poor
-
The French offside is getting comical
-
@Mattasaurus thier u-gate is working well
-
@Mattasaurus They are constantly lying all over the ball on the wrong side of the ruck.
-
Honestly would any other team get away with such blatant repeated offsides and laying all over the ball?
Sure as shit ABs wouldnt
-
now looking for a reason not to award...

There was one ruck in particular that was just ridiculous.
