Bad news for Scotland if this is the case
Game on
There goes the afternoon
I mean, he was looking the direction of the pass, he absolutely had sight of Brex
Russell was looking at Brex.
Italian defense has been fantastic. Massive pressure, but accurate and avoiding easy penalties.
Nonsense from Dickson there, Italian had his knees on the ground for an age
great from Graham there, some shocking tackling
Very good from Jones, but that was really poor from Garbisi.
Should it not be a yellow to Scotland for offside preventing a try?
No arms tackle to boot
Thought the same.
pretty positive game from Italy, would've made for an interesting final 10 if they'd not knocked on over the line.
Scoreline flatters Scotland, imo.
That's poorfrom Dickson, letting Scotland flop off their feet over the ruck
They got away with a lot at the breakdown, but Italy were a little naive in the red zone.
Agree, had to get the ball out of the ruck faster on the line at the end. Let Scotland slow it right down
Italian player left the maul too early at the end. Was a try all day had he stayed in. Infuriating. Deserved the LBP.

The Slam is on
I stand corrected. I thought Irish fans only whinged about the ref in games involving Irish teams. I was wrong.
The ref in the France v Wales game was fine. Wales were shite. The pass from Du Pont was backwards as per the laws of physics and rugby. As for the supposed high tackle that busted Adams' nose, I haven't seen any footage that shows it was high. The footage I've seen, it looks like shoulder height and the ref was closer than the camera shot. To all those saying it was high, share a pic and I'll admit my mistake.
You like to come on here (an Irish website) and whinge about Irish fan’s whinging!!!
Go for it.
6N you gotta love it….dont you?
I'm a rugby fan and I live in Ireland. Am I not allowed to comment? I generally support Ireland and Irish teams when NZ sides aren't involved. Am I not allowed to comment? I
U r from NZ….well I never!! As I said - go for it!!
Love the NZ fans. I lived in Rotarua in the 90s.
U must be loving life here experiencing the 6N 1st hand? The craic, The winning, The whinging, The losing, The rugby….its great isn’t it?
He tends to whinge a lot. Mainly about the Irish whinging. I think the irony is lost on him. But he does know his rugby IMHO.
Midi Olympique's team of the Weekend has four Irish players, two subs (Sheehan & Crowley) along with JGP & Lowe, who was my MotM
That's brilliant. I'm sure Simon easterby will take that into consideration when he picks the team for Scotland.
Chill, it's a rugby discussion forum not the coaches meeting.
Team of the Weekend is akin to a MotM award generally not contentious but it's something fans (should they wish) can discuss with their own opinions.
Exactly. Other opinions are available…
Another team of the weekend , again two subs for Ireland make the team
Has anyone seen a post from @FtD v2 ?
I miss his contributions on weeks like these. i.e. Excitement / Positivity!
Ireland have just beaten England.
Outhalf depth is sorted and exciting.
Furlong, Osborne, Nash, POM, Izzy, Jack Boyle not in the 23.
Jager, Ben Murphy, Larmour, Ahern, Connors and of course Coombes couldn't get in the squad.
The Triple Crown is on.
The Championship is hopefully going to come down to an 'épique' v France in Lansdowne Road.
Then a GRAND SLAM in ROME - Please THE GODS!!
Its a great time to be an Irish rugby supporter. Enjoy!!

Knew about the Tricolour issue but never heard of the aviation tragedy. Huge casualties for the time.
