    I guarantee you now that Doyle will give a penalty to France.

    All these resets, but he'll give France a pen.

    That wasn't a high tackle, this is a high tackle...

  • Registered Users Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    What on earth was that?!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,129 ✭✭✭my friend

    Be curious where that'd have gone if it didn't hit off the head of his teammate

    What the hell..


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    What the fcuk parisse. What was he at.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,047 ✭✭✭Bazzo


    What the **** was Parisse thinking?


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,212 ✭✭✭✭Buer


    Parisse is a superb player but that was utterly moronic. What a stupid decision from him. There were runners beside him looking to crash back up and set it up properly.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,075 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Gutted for Italy.

    And now I fear for Ireland in the 6 Nations.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 689 ✭✭✭Torricelli


    Parisse is a great player but that was just selfish.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 23,931 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    In fairness Parisse was as likely to nail that as Haimona was.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,413 ✭✭✭chupacabra


    Feck it anyway


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    Who wasn't stepping up to the plate that should have done? Haimona? McLean?

    I actually cracked a joke to my missus after about 4 phases of that "parisse is doing everything else, he'll probably have a drop at goal"

    Barmy, but imagine if it had gone over!


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,585 ✭✭✭✭MJohnston


    I think you're all being harsh on Parisse, it took a big deflection off a head


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,237 ✭✭✭Boscoirl


    I'd make him walk home for that.

    I think other players were running away from stepping up to it tbh. I'm sure we'll find the story after the game.

    In terms of Parisse getting the ball, can blame he placed on the nine for passing him the ball in the first place?!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,491 ✭✭✭swiwi_


    What a shambles from Italy at the end. Eat up the clock trying to milk a scrum penalty, then ruck penalties, finally get some go forward building nicely...and Parisse throws it away with a poor attempt at a drop from distance.

    Entertaining game all the same.


  • Administrators Posts: 53,648 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    That was just dumb.

    They were making ground, could have gone a few more phases.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,521 ✭✭✭✭mansize


    Brain fart from Parisse


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,087 ✭✭✭✭Losty Dublin


    What a plonker, Parisse. I was dropping goals playing at number 8 when I played for Mount Temple U 14s #outhalftrappedinaforwardsbody :-)

    Why? France were poor at home and having them away was one of the worries.
