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

[Bada-Bing!]

Ripping the ball from French players like candy from a baby.

 

[Every Time Ref]

Hits DuPont's hand.

As for the naughtiness, they're both on the floor and out of the game.
I genuinely don't know if that should make a difference though

If you hold someone down you’re illegally keeping them out the game

Mind you it’s never given when players take defenders miles past the ruck so why would it be now?

 

[barthelemy]

Would have never have got there though.

Does not change the fact that May is stopiing him to get up again and that Owens is quite happy to not see it btu when it is Fickou the other side, not even a close camera look, just a wide view and it is OK to give the english a penalty try

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Lovely tackle from Courtney on Bastareaud.

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Courtney f***ing Lawes

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

A big old log? WTF is that analogy?

 

[TheSaffycen]

LAWES WHAT A HIT SON

Ripping the ball from French players like candy from a baby.

Farrell has been doing it for fun the last two weeks, pulled off a beauty on Sexton last week

"Lawes only tackles little guys"

 

[Bluemoon]

Would have never have got there though.

Not sure how we can judge that haha. Didn’t need to hold him if so. Still held him - penalty. Like I say, little academic! England good value for the score.

 

[Tooting Carmen]

Big tackle on Bastareaud that.

 

[Every Time Ref]

Ford-Farrell could be tasty

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Has Ford got a hickey?

Physics. Getting up against someone running through. Never happening.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Ouch dat Scrum

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Massive scrum from England there.

 

[Duck a l'Orange]

Good shove.

 

[Which Tyler]

We'll get to see Ford for 20; but still not without someone to hold his hand

 

[TheSaffycen]

Cole and Moon on to punish the French scrum, but not going to do much more else

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Queue the Dan Cole's scrummaging circle-jerk
