That's poor. The tackle brought him down on to it.

Correct decision. Not sure if there is the mitigation of the 1st card.

Exactly the sort of impact we all feared from Saffas being in the 6 nations

Even the French crowd could hardly get a good whistleing up on that decision.

Noticeable that they are not taking players out past the ruck or taking the piss coming in from the side. Must have had a word in their ear

Put some storming South African in your team, what can go wrong?

Looked like a yellow in real time.
Pretty dense after getting away with the yellow on the first card.

He was lucky to be on the pitch so maybe justice done.

And Sheehan gets done for coming out the wrong way from a ruck. Two years late, but the refs seem to have cottoned on

I don't think the drop in height from being tackled is much mitigation as it happens early on, he takes a few steps after that and Willemse is always hitting high

I imagine as the pressure builds, France spend a lot of the second half with 13 men on the pitch.

Feel like I had forgotten that Ireland are actually a very good side.

French team doesn’t any cohesion, not sure what’s happened.

Ireland should be due a yellow if they concede another pen.
Re: Official France v Ireland Thread

3rd penalty for fucking about at the back of the ruck, 2nd from Porter who did it again 3 rucks later. Ref needs to give a warning at least

Trying to look back at how that try happened. Think it was just a collective French switch into passion and caring.

They have enough heft to take it up the guts and get Ireland retreating, even with 14. This isn't over

from the replays, Willemse was lucky to not get a red after the first tackle
