    Seatbelt tackle from Brown there surely
    England certainly getting some luck from the ref.

    What 5 penalties at least within a few meters of their own goal line? They need to improve massively before they play anyone else.

    If Itoje jumped into the tackle is that not a penalty to Italy?

    Robshaw was nowhere near supporting himself there.

    England did that exact thing in the maul to Italy twice in the first half, not penalised.

    Bizarre that Italy get a warning before England really.

    Itoje grabbing Parisse in the air at that last line-out...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    Brilliantly Parisse.

    Arrogance from England, the penalty would have put the, 15 in front with almost 10 mins left.


    Doesn’t matter, they’ve scored now.

    Raynal very harsh on italy. England gave away 4 or 5 penalties within 10m of their own line and no warning

    Why do referees seem completely reluctant to penalise Itoje?

    Killeen the ball by his own line, all over Parisse at the line out and nothing said.

    ara here

    blatant forward pass in that build up.

    England get away with murder

    Simmons has a 2nd try.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,699 ✭✭✭The Pheasant2


    Can feel my blood pressure rise just slightly every time Quinlan says "Vunipolo".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,456 ✭✭✭✭ednwireland


    Simmons looks like a find


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,543 ✭✭✭dublinman1990


    That was quick for England. Try #7 for them.


  • Registered Users Posts: 966 ✭✭✭Scythica


    was irritated I dropped Watson in fantasy, glad I got Simmonds though


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,558 ✭✭✭Ardillaun


    Grandad here with my usual gripe about the line out. At 30:30, the ref tells Ghiraldini to stay in the middle but as soon as he turns round the hooker takes a step to the right and throws the ball over his own team. It’s obvious, the commentators see it and yet the touch judge does nothing.

    a jolly good thrashing. o shea not really improving them.
