Barnes is completely ignoring both sides with multiple players going off their feet on their own ball at every ruck, it's a farce.
France finally getting some jacklers over the ball.
Amazing passage of play
Ramos with the long shot at goal. Just short.
Ntamack kicks far too often for mine.
Awful play from Du Pont there. Has good ball on the line from a break, and just slows it all down then throws to an isolated forward.
Lively French start to the second half but no change to the scoreboard.
You can't take the French winger out like that
Get the impression that if France just be a bit more controlled, they could equalise & start to pull away
What the fuck is that Wayne?
Wayne Barnes "I can't make a player stop in mid air"
Faiinganuuku wasnt extended the same courtesy from the ref against the Irish.
France the better side so far in the second half. Ireland still lead by six.
@Steve said in Ireland v France 6N:
Wayne Barnes "I can't make a player stop in mid air" Faiinganuuku wasnt extended the same courtesy from the ref against the Irish.
The modern game is just littered with inconsistencies like this.
@Steve a minute later he penalises a french player who got taken out in the air by Murray after Murray over ran the kick...
James Lowe having a great game.
Really poor coaching for France not to have Jalibert on.
Ireland win a penalty for a 9 point lead.
Ireland 25 France 16 with 20 minutes to go.
France have to score next
Ireland playing really controlled, disciplined rugby and that's the difference right now.
