odd the ref let several French move well ahead of the kicker and the onside player
Is it really odd? seems to me most games these days that is allowed to varying degrees
-
@Mattasaurus ok true, more he actually told them it was ok to move.
-
Apart from the prop who put in a good shot leading up to that penalty ...Italy look like they don't want to be there..
-
easy metres, undone, by a man in front of the kick advancing...
-
ITaly missing far too many tackles
-
@Mattasaurus Yep.Gonna be a long night for the Italians. Really have to question their tier 1 status. They have just fallen apart.

Yup -
Italy are shadows of themselves from the 6N -
@Mattasaurus yep, a team that was within a score of France and 2 of Ireland...
THat looked a harsh penalty
-
What has happened to Italy between the 6 Nations and now?
-
haha what an odd call

agreed But it was against France , in France, plenty of calls (50/50s) to go their way yet in this tournament I expect.

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?

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
