England into the final without ever feeling line they got into top gear

That should be a penalty against Itoje. You cannot shout like that on the opposition line out. A real lack of class every time he steps on the pitch. Such a plum It's the same law as for shouting during a kick, I've seen it penalised at club level but Itoje just screaming there really should be pin...

Russell puts way too much on it just idiotic That's literally his game. The lazy French defences make him look like a genius. Against a decent press he often looks lost, and does things like that stupid slap on. You said? :lol: :lol: It's true. He'll try those sorts of Hail Marys 9-10 times in a ma...

Lewington will be kicking himself after this game, should have won the game 15 mins ago. Had a poor game in general too

Great try tbf

That makes no sense
The call from the side was for the scrum going past 90.

Hmm OK makes sense in that context assumed it was for the wheel

Agreed. Scrums with both props pushing don't go around that quickly.

Unlike Nige to get conned like that.

The TJ told him too, but said Billy had already knocked it on WTF

Yeah struggling with that one, tells Clark to leave it alone then give Ryan the pen in an identical situation

Vunipola and Morris in the centres now? Racing must be able to exploit that

Some chase from Morris that Russell having one of those games so far...

It was given against Vunipola not Koch

I’m aware, but since when was getting under your oppo prop and driving him up and back illegal? Just looked like Mako won the battle to me?

Bimbo's right, the Nige show.

Yep, a few head scratchers so far, but he’s been even in his eccentricities so there’s at least that

Hmm didn’t think you were allowed to remove one stud as it creates an uneven sole if you stand on someone

to me there where some obvious issues even back then; - Ford Snr picking SB @ 6, whilst England wanted him @ 12. A role with England that put Ford Jnrs place in the team in jeopardy - Ford Snr with one eye on the England job & never shutting up about SB during the RWC - Lancaster probably recognisin...

O'Driscoll vs France in Paris 2000. Watched the whole game again there last week. Huge performance for a young man. Not just the hat-trick, every action was on the money. Dominant hits, turnovers; made a break, a half break or put someone into space practically every time he got the ball. France we...

Which - of course - remains the default tackle technique. There were plenty of others during the course of the match, because the standard way of making contact in the tackle is to lead hard with the shoulder and then wrap with the arm. When the tackled player moves in an unpredictable way, the tac...

Frankly there's still a lot that goes unpunished when it comes to making high contact with try scorers. Every week of the Premiership someone seems to score despite a seatbelt tackle or worse, but because the try is scored it just gets ignored. That's a huge bugbear of mine. Yellow card infringemen...

The literal focus of my argument was that Courtney should have received a red. I don't know how else I can make that clearer. What other people did or didn't do does not change that end result. If someone else deserved a red card that doesn't invalidate the fact that so does Courtney. I don't know ...

Do we think the Italy games will actually get played? Is there room in the calendar? Space got found in 2001 for the F&M games, and I doubt any Union will want to see games (and revenue) lost. Even if it means flogging players a bit and disrupting clubs. Won't it depend on the player release clause...
