[2021 Six Nations] England vs Italy (13/02/21)

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

If Young's was called Burrell or Lawrence he would have been subbed off by now.

 

[Which Tyler]

That was what was said in commentary. Didn't get a good replay to see if that was correct.

Yeah, they were talking about much closer to the try line

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

The Vunipolae and Youngs really letting the rest down.

 

[ncurd]

Tip tackle on Sinckler in that replay?

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Hill is brilliant, no idea why people on here don't love him. Come on people.

 

[Reiser99]

So difference at the moment really is a mistake by Itoje opening up the Italian defence.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Vunipolae

I like this

 

[Groundhog]

Tip tackle on Sinckler in that replay?

Not a tip imo, no arms though so a penalty regardless.

 

[Groundhog]

The Vunipolae and Youngs really letting the rest down.

Vunipolas heard making ground on carries was gay and said miss me with that ****

 

[ncurd]

Not a tip imo, no arms though so a penalty regardless.

He went over the horizontal which is why I questioned it.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

What was the point in that kick?

Gain 15m but the opposition gets a lineout?

Pass from Daly to the wing was forward AF anyway

 

[big ginger 8]

How many Italian subs have seen action already?

 

[Leinster Fan]

Can't stand Virgin Media commentary but they are right that the Italian tactical kicking is costing them.

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Curry with better SH skills than Young's.

 

[NickBD]

England's passing has been bad. Either too high or low.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Daly is trying his hardest to take the stink off of Youngs

Sub them both

 

[Which Tyler]

Right, new thought.
If Farrell absolutely HAS to play - can he wear 9 in the future? Can't be worse than the incumbent, and gets him out of the way

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Italian subs

Hungry now

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Some sexy chops in there. Italy look like they have more good players than usual but nowhere near athletic enough up front.

 

[Groundhog]

Italian tackling in general is really really good. Making the English carriers look underpowered and just chopping the backs low. I'm sure they'll fall off as they always tend to but way better this week even if england are poor today
