riocard911 wrote: March 11th, 2023, 3:23 pm Yeah, but Italy are witless too. Taking Liam Williams out in the air off a kick to nothing, when you've already been awarded a peno 5 yards out from the Welsh line in the last minute of the first half is feckin' brain-dead, IMO.
That was a fair contest and Williams brought that penalty
It clearly was nothing of the sort. Bruno had no chance of fairly competing for the ball and threw himself into Williams' back. Clear penalty.
From the second angle Bruno was on a trajectory to catch the ball with his jump had Williams not snatched it above him. Absolute fair contest

Williams a little fortunate on that one though, looked to me like the Italian player was above him.

Looking like the bookies are going to lose out on the Italy one.
No taking account for a referee hell bent on disliking one side
Yep, no Joy for the Italians either.

France score another try off a Dupont 50-22. Daowi Morris proclaims Dupont is a "genius". He could be on to something.... 0-17, 27 mins.

England are hopeless. They could lose this by 50 if France keep playing.

England are so bad it's incredible.

Along with the above front & back row, the halfbacks are horrendous. I just don't see what people see in JVP at all and Smith looks lost.

Hear, hear. Genge is always illegal........if allowed. Alghergi is just driving him straight / outward every scrum and Genge is moaning to the Ref (probably saying "I've been found out, help me").

Great handling by French back-row, genuinely taking lessons from the Irish, line break then pass. Great to watch, even a seven-day turn-around won't help the English, if we can do the business tomorrow.
