    Vahaamahina is playing worse than he did against us.

    Some achievement.

    Shamefull refereeing from Barnes, you would really hope that one of the other officials would have the backbone to tell him he is wrong.

    Bizarre. I thought the 6 had done enough to warrant the penalty try, but once Barnes determined that he wasn't at fault I can see how he could away the penalty try.

    Ah, I'd wait until I get a better view of it. Lauret was throwing all his weight on the maul, to the extent he was off his feet. I don't think that's the optimum way of stopping a maul.

    Barnes is giving Italy a helping hand.

    Bit of niggle in this, crowd getting involved too, sounds like a great atmosphere. Good game to watch so far

    France had a few lads wildly off their feet going into rucks during that play.

    If Wales v England was decided on who has the better top ref, we'd win with a bonus point every year.

    How is it possible to fail to score each time they're 1 metre out?

    There was no review of that touchdown there... It didn't seem so clear cut to me as to not be reviewed even briefly

    Surely McKinley would be better than the hopeless Allan. He can't get a kick right tonight.
