6 Nations Round 3 - France v Italy

[Paddington Bear]

Red for me

[Blackmac]

Just a shit tackle. Could be red.

[Sandstorm]

Red for me

Yup. He’s not coming out the bunker.

[petej]

Red for me

I can't see any mitigation

[Paddington Bear]

Just a shit tackle. Could be red.

Can’t see any mitigation, very upright, high degree of danger

Italy should be exceptionally proud of that half, we’ve got a live game here

[Sandstorm]

10-3 France
HT

[I like neeps]

Red for me

I can't see any mitigation

Starts chest on chest and rides up maybe?

[Blackmac]

Just a shit tackle. Could be red.

Incredible defensive work but France haven't done themselves and favours.

It's a miracle that we're only 7 down, the French have butchered a couple of seemingly certain tries. Perhaps they wanted to atone for the phantom try the ref gave them

[laurent]

So sloppy by france.
2 late tackles and we lose Jallibert.
Danty tackle high to finish a real poor half.

France have been sloppy, but Italy’s cover defence has been excellent and has out them under pressure

[tcc_dc]

when do they give Italy a card to even this up...

[petej]

Massive chance for Italy to get result.

[Blackmac]

Apparently fine for Tuilagi to clear someone out with a hand chop to the throat.

[Hal Jordan]

Red for me

Yup. He’s not coming out the bunker.

Ah, the Hitler Gambit.

[Sandstorm]

Red for me

Yup. He’s not coming out the bunker.

Ah, the Hitler Gambit.

[sturginho]

Massive chance for Italy to get result.

Will need a few more cards for that

[Slick]

There is some absolutely classic big team/small team refereeing going on here, so frustrating

[Sandstorm]

Italian tight five just stop with ball in hand and go to ground. Gutless

[Blackmac]

Last ruck a perfect example. Superb jackle by the Italian and inexplicably told to let it go when it was a clear penalty to Italy

Glad I’m not the only one who thought that. Ridley is a clown, god knows how he got an international gig

Glad it's not just me being biased

[tcc_dc]

[Paddington Bear]

Italy on top here, buckle up

[Sandstorm]

Italy on top here, buckle up

Nah, their hands will let them down at the end.

[PCPhil]

Probably this.

[sturginho]

Italy on top here, buckle up

Nah, their heads will let them down at the end.

Fixed

[petej]

France look tired.

[Paddington Bear]

Great try. Sorry Sturg if this jinxes it, but I’m calling Italy winning this

[sturginho]

Ange you fucking beauty!!!!!!

[petej]

Great kick.

[fishfoodie]

That's a great pressure kick !

[Paddington Bear]

Monster scrum

[Blackmac]

Why would you kick that.

[sturginho]

Can't take any more of this

[Paddington Bear]

Stay calm

[Blackmac]
