    To Bones :
    The ball went clearly forward, IMO. But it fell on Zammit's leg, so could it be considered like a kick ?

      Another dreadful interview by this horrible person. Shame, I thought the BBC coverage of this game otherwise was faultless.

      Yep. Even Jonathan Davies was adding something to the commentary and not just spouting the bleedin' obvious

        If it had ever been ruled like that in the past then I could buy it

          Yep you have to control ball before it hits your leg. Regardless really enjoyed game and really pleased for Wales . Triple Crown winners!

            We rode our luck but discipline and substitutions saw us home.

            Fair play to Pivac, picked the right 15 to start and the right finishers.

            Hardy was good but didn't learn with the box kicks.

            Biggar is frustrating as fuck but did everything right for that first try. Had the ref focussed on telling him when time was on not Farrell.

            Sheedy came of age this evening.

            Fair play to Farrell. All class in the post match interview. Unlike Sonja. The witch.

            England could easily have won that but the players who normally finish strong were already spent.

            Triple Crown. Who'd have thunk it.

              Didn’t see it ... what happened? She’s updated this ....

              I wonder if she’s used any of these words on her post match stitch ups, I mean interviews.

                Abuse for doing your job terribly.

                Interestingly no tweets ftom the French officials.

                Sonja played the 'Tiny Tears' female card.

                      All over. 40-24. Dominant win for Wales. England were a rabble in the last 20 minutes.

                      To be fair, England did very well to draw back to 24 all. But then reverted to prat mode.

                          No sympathy. I hope the BBC don't use her again. Embarrassing and tone deaf.

                            Not excusing the abuse, but she's really not welcome if she carries on with that line of baiting in after-match interviews. Someone should explain it isn't soccer.

                            Great to Farrell not rising to the bait.

                                I just assumed it was abuse, Mike. Then again, these days simply disagreeing with someone seems to be regarded as abuse.

                                And I'm not going into the Twitter cesspit to find out...

                                  I just assumed it was abuse, Mike. Then again, these days simply disagreeing with someone seems to be regarded as abuse.

                                  And I'm not going into the Twitter cesspit to find out...

                                  in fairness, if you're a public figure on Twitter, you are going to cop genuine abuse, not just criticism.

                                  The problem is that genuine criticism of a sustained pattern of trolling interviews will be deflected by some muppet keyboard warriors

                                    Didn’t see it ... what happened? She’s updated this ....

                                    I wonder if she’s used any of these words on her post match stitch ups, I mean interviews.

                                    Is that her? You bang on with her stitch up, or attempted was pleased how farrell and Wyn-Jones handles her.

                                      Ach. Shithouse. Firstly, awful refereeing. First try was a complete shocker. Big ups for Biggar and Adams for the foresight and execution but damn that was poor from the ref. Second try, knock on definitely in real time but on replay I have no argument. If he’d fumbled if but managed to kick it forward it would not be an issue, so why is it an issue if he fumbles it and kicks it backwards? Cannot blame the referee for the loss though, we’d put those decisions behind us and got parity but then discipline let us down badly. Itoje copping a lot of grief but mostly unfairly imo. That attempt to disrupt the 9 at the line out deemed as a deliberate knock on? FFS is competition for the ball not allowed?

                                      However well done Wales on a triple crown. You played the intelligent rugby today.

                                          That might be the single most pathetic statement I've ever seen. In the car crying over Twitter feedback?
