6 Nations Round 3 - France v Italy

[Marylandolorian]

Have to say, I thought the players "charging" was a bit overblown and didn't really have any material impact on what happened. I have also seen very few Italians moaning about it, just seems to be everyone else.

Yeah I don't think it made a difference, but that said I don't think France could have any complaints if the ref had called for it to be taken again

Yep, funny that it’s always the same people doing it and btw nobody mentioned the late tackle that cost Jalibert’s knee and the end of the tournament, it could have been a yellow or red.

[MungoMan]

Yup. He’s not coming out the bunker.

Ah, the Hitler Gambit.

Late to the party, but agree.

I'm not sure what you think this gif proves, this is not the issue, the issue is that he tries again to charge when Garbisi takes the kick

They're saying a 6 week absence for Jalibert, not as bad as I feared, it did look nasty

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

Danty gets 5 weeks off for the "tackle"

[sturginho]

Leonardo Marin's last 3 appearances for Italy have been 2 wins and a draw all away from home....

I'm not really sure why you are aiming that point at me. I said it was a shit tackle and likely a red.
