In execution too

troyzer · 23-02-2019 5:50pm

Bizarre penalty.

kilns · 23-02-2019 5:53pm

Worst referee in the world bar glen Jackson referring this no doubt he will be controversial

AdamD · 23-02-2019 5:53pm

England kicking everything again..

crisco10 · 23-02-2019 5:53pm

Drives me mad that virgin media's feed is such poor quality. It's like being back in the 90s.

troyzer · 23-02-2019 5:55pm

These hits are absolutely huge.

Best result for Ireland here is for Wales to completely demolish England, right? Try and reduce their points difference as much as possible.

nordydan · 23-02-2019 5:55pm

What ideal from an Irish POV? 8-0 Wales??

I miss the 90's.

No, 50-0 to Wales would be ideal. It would destroy England's point difference.

irishbucsfan · 23-02-2019 5:57pm

Wales are lucky that was just a scrum, clearly squeeze ball?

troyzer · 23-02-2019 5:57pm

Gareth Davies. Holy ****

troyzer · 23-02-2019 6:00pm

The blocking on box kicks is getting ridiculous. How are England getting away with this?

Tipuric had to tackle Nowell THROUGH Wilson.

Amprodude · 23-02-2019 6:02pm

Cant see Wales winning this. They are a bit sloppy so far.

Thrashssacre · 23-02-2019 6:03pm

So realistic Wales need to beat England and without giving them a bonus Point of any sort and England also need to fail to get a bonus point against Scotland to even give us a shout of winning on points difference?

Yep. And even then, we'd need to get a TBP for all three games. Including Wales away.

Paully D · 23-02-2019 6:04pm

Refereeing is very generous towards England thus far.

stephen_n · 23-02-2019 6:05pm

Sinckler dropped that and England get the penalty, bizzare.

Amprodude · 23-02-2019 6:06pm

Englands slam to lose.

troyzer · 23-02-2019 6:07pm

Offside is being reffed appallingly.

A lot of England's recent great form has come down to routinely flouting rules that are badly enforced.

accensi0n · 23-02-2019 6:07pm

Byrne commentates like he's sitting on his couch sipping a pint.

blackwhite · 23-02-2019 6:07pm

Offside line appears to be an alien concept here

awec · 23-02-2019 6:10pm

Wales haven’t quite realised yet that England aren’t resourcing rucks at all.

England haven’t been resourcing rucks in any game so far

realhorrorshow · 23-02-2019 6:11pm

Pick and goes are a good counter to the linespeed/constant offsides.

Weepsie · 23-02-2019 6:13pm

Did he instantly call a Wales offside there while letting England be offside at every single phase?

PhlegmyMoses · 23-02-2019 6:13pm

Sloppy from Wales. Welsh heads will drop now

thomond2006 · 23-02-2019 6:14pm

What on earth happened?

stephen_n · 23-02-2019 6:14pm

That was brutal defence from Wales

Yeah, Wales are getting the shaft a little bit here

troyzer · 23-02-2019 6:14pm

What's the point playing when the referee is such a ****ing idiot?

Lawes wasn't even close to legal on that strip. England are getting away with murder so far.

Weepsie · 23-02-2019 6:15pm

Yeah that was definitely not a knock on either England hand swiped that away.

Havn't they done something to stop the TMO intervening too much? England have gotten away with some huge calls in the games.

Amprodude · 23-02-2019 6:16pm

Wales never believe they can beat England. No guts about them.

realhorrorshow · 23-02-2019 6:16pm

Wtf was Tipuric doing there?

ongarite · 23-02-2019 6:17pm

Dreadful from Parks there.

troyzer · 23-02-2019 6:17pm

Curry getting away with a hand in the ruck off his feet as well for that turnover.

You must have missed last year's game. Wales were robbed in Twickenham.

That's nonsense. They've a near 50 50 head to head record.

England have got away with some fairly easy decisions

Paully D · 23-02-2019 6:20pm

Laughable officiating.

BoJack Horseman · 23-02-2019 6:21pm

Who knew that becoming an international referee was a matter of collecting cereal box tokens!

Simo08 · 23-02-2019 6:21pm

Jaco Peyper having an absolute mare here

23-02-2019 6:21pm

Farrell straight off his feet, can't understand the ref there

troyzer · 23-02-2019 6:22pm

I'm surprised he didn't let Vunipola away with that one.

He went straight on top of him.

Peypers response to Williams was that he got the penalty anyway?!? Strange logic.

troyzer · 23-02-2019 6:24pm

Ross Kemp shown on the big screen for some reason there.

awec · 23-02-2019 6:25pm

Jamie George got bent in half the wrong way in that scrum. Absolutely smashed.

Yeah seemed like ruck finished, player on the ground should have been penalised for playing the ball no?

troyzer · 23-02-2019 6:26pm

What even is offside anymore?

baas baa · 23-02-2019 6:28pm

Where Lawes came in competing illegally there I don't know why the Wales players went to the effort of clearing him out, it's clear he's illegal and if you leave him alone he'll concede a penalty.

Larbre34 · 23-02-2019 6:28pm

Great fitness from May there, did it all with massive energy

awec · 23-02-2019 6:28pm

Hadley Parkes runs in slow motion.
