    Nice handy one to start. Italian jerseys look very French.

    Italy wrongfully pinged for hands on in the ruck, and Wales not pinged for hand in the ruck

    Sweet jesus that was awful. Completely missed the ball. Talk about handing momentum to the opposition.

    3 instances of Wales going over the top and tackling players in the ruck or after the tackle

    Italians getting no luck from the officials already.
    Wainwright took Canna past the ruck after coming in at the side, literally a foot in front of the AR who looked away.
    I know they turn a blind eye but that was two.

    The standard of reffing in rugby is getting embarrassing...it's a sport that is beginning to struggle for credibility

    Josh Adam's 12th try for Wales is getting a look from the TMO.

    EDIT: Try awarded.

    It's a great sport that I massively enjoy. You can have your opinion of course, but it is a bad opinion imo.

    I enjoy it too, but it's a sport with a very small pool of professionals...and rules that change week to week it seems because they are so ambiguous...also beard no hands with the previous clear out

    Tasty, but why wasn't the Italian 14 pushing out? There were two inside covering Biggar.
    Really poor defence.
