[2023 Six Nations] England vs Italy - 12 February 2023

[Ragey Erasmus]

Varney definitely held and yet carried on after the tackle but hey, all decisions are going England's way...

 

[Vieux Talonneur]

Is Walker being set up to do a Dunn?

 

[Gavin]

Surprised Capuozzo didn't chip there

 

[TommiG88]

Ah there's the England defence of last week.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Two very very poor pieces of defending there

 

[ntun82]

Try

 

[BrokenWing]

We not looking at the American Football blocking then? OK…

Oh, no one threw themselves on the floor waving their arms around.

 

[ntun82]

Even if we are Italians, you have to tackle us eh

 

[TommiG88]

So if Lawrence was penalised in the first half, then that's an obstruction

 

[TRF_Olyy]

If Lawrence's was blocking then that one on Cole definitely was

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Varney definitely held and yet carried on after the tackle but hey, all decisions are going England's way...

On the break down the left wing? He put the ball down and regathered.

 

[ntun82]

Poshy Twickenham whistling the kicker?

 

[TommiG88]

On the break down the left wing? He put the ball down and regathered.

He was still held though. Plus rolled it forwards too

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

On the break down the left wing? He put the ball down and regathered.

You can only do that if you weren't held. He was held so he couldn't.

Also obstruction on cole, but all decisions are in England's favour.

 

[AlRums]

Varney definitely held and yet carried on after the tackle but hey, all decisions are going England's way...

He released the ball, got up then picked up and carried on. Perfectly legal play

 

[Reiser99]

TMO is a joke...

 

[Geordie]

Englands subs are a problem.

 

[Lé Ddanno]

Mako and Cole skinned twice in 15s. Well done.

 

[curtbob7]

Officials doing everything they can to manufacture a closer game here.

 

[TommiG88]

He released the ball, got up then picked up and carried on. Perfectly legal play

Perfectly legal? If that was the case, it's a knock on as it rolled forward
