it is so exciting, another try from a maul.....
This new lad at 10 doesn't seem to be taking the opportunity afforded to him.
Not sure how Pearce can claim that action by the Italian 1 was legal. Knee slide into Ryan to prevent the try. That's a penalty try all day long
Backs joining the forwards for a maul says a lot about Ireland
sure….
it's ugly, but we will take the try
I suppose Crowley has got the odd tackle in but you’d miss the accuracy and flair in passing that SP brings … plus awareness and kicking.
That's a red card.
Headbutted Keenan.
That'll get upgraded
Keenan surely has to go off for a HIA?
Could be a red card coming up for Italy. Provisionally given as yellow, but that will be upgraded no doubt.
Should be a straight red, tbh.
would love to see a ref make the on field decision in that situation. Clear as day that’s red
It was replayed in slow mo. I think that it's fine. PT for other reasons though.
That's a red card
Italy throwing the game away. Boring game so far. All the injuries will mean they are exhausted in the last 10-20. Ireland should score 2/3 tries in that period.
Commentator, that is nothing like the ringrose tackle in Cardiff
Real Pass the potato stuff there.
Hanson only lad making a cut and he's only a slip of a chap.
Thanks POM for all your service over nearly a decade and a half.
Italians heads are gone.
Great reception for POM
Ireland kick on now
A Gladiator appears in Rome.
As red a red as you can get. Am Incorrect that a straight red means a permanent man down?
Allan made a mess of it, but that was a brilliant kick from Lowe. Went from his own 22 and made it well into the Italy 22.
Ryan literally fell on the ground and the Italian player crashed into him, totally unavoidable.
Yes. Ref bottled it, imo.
A very nice bonus point try.
Edit: ruled out for a knock on
Cool.
Crowley's had a good second and third quarter.
What the f**k was that lunge with the high foot??
That's going to be disallowed
Nicely done there, Hansen has really stepped up in broken play and Crowley and Keenan are linking up well for another try
Nice one Crowley and Keenan.
Is Keenan all there? he took a hell of a tackle.
How many phases can TMO go back?
