[2019 Six Nations] England vs France (10/02/2019)

[big ginger 8]

50/50 for me
Was pretty much level but the off the ball tackle stopped him putting his arm out to try and gather it

Wouldn't have been surprised/massively aggrieved to see it not given

Yeah the angle facing Ashton suggests he still could have got it.

 

[Every Time Ref]

High class meme work there

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Could have been worse, the French player could have said to Curry.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Hughes dominated in contact again. His technique is genuinely awful.

May dropping to the floor immediately after taking the highball is smart - can't be held up.

 

[Cruz_del_Sur]

Penalty, yellow card, no penalty try.
He could have scored but it was not certain.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Reasonable showing from Ashton
Not enough to be a starter but probably enough to show he's worth a spot on the plane to Japan

It would be an England scrum if May was held up after fielding a kick.

 

[Tooting Carmen]

The Jerry Springer moment. Can players ever grow up (in the mental sense?)

 

[Bluemoon]

Nigel isn't helping the welsh stereotype about sheep randomly shouting "ewes" all the time.

Would like to see Joe get a similar opportunity this 6N.

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Sinckler's such a bellend and I love it

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Idiot.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Aye.

IMO needed to give it may

May is the new Stockdale, 2019 is England's year.

Cant wait to be honoured to be knocked out by ye in the semi final.

 

[Every Time Ref]

No complaints there, good management Nige. Dumb from Sincks

 

[ratsapprentice]

Yes, but there's the possibility of a fumble or turnover, or just being dominated in a tackle.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Would start him vs Italy, get all the wingers a start and try as many combos as possible
Realistically May and Nowell are inked in, we're looking for our 23 shirt

Let's face it getting to the semis is like winning it for you anyway.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

May almost took Bastas head off then, haha

 

[Rinkadink]

Don't like that call, not a penalty try for me... yellow card for the tackle without the ball and don't award the 7.

Sink is a donkey. Not for the initial as you want a wind up merchant but don't disrespect the ref like that. What happened with George and the hoardings?

Exactly, everyone but the Welsh and Scots win, it's what our bro nations always wanted.
