[2024 Six Nations] Wales vs Italy - 16/03/24

[die_mole]

whitewash should be -5 points. Wales should be ashamed to have 4 points.

The ones that should be ashamed are the ones that allowed wales to get 4 points.

 

[McTallshort]

Moral victory for Wales with that last try

 

[Lé Ddanno]

The Ronaldo celebration.

Did they learn from Prince George in Blackadder?

 

[dirty harry]

15 caps. How many starts? He started one game at the World Cup against a tier 2 team. Blaming the loss on Costellow is utterly ridiculous.

What team who has ever won anything has had a bad 10?

 

[dirty harry]

I wouldn't bother arguing with him, he's already admitted to be wrong once on this thread today, you won't get another!

I'm always wrong lol, can you say the same?

 

[die_mole]

La Rochelle before they cradle robbed pau

 

[Vieux Talonneur]

Well done Italy but far closer on the scoreboard than it really should have been.

No wonder North and LRZ have had enough. That first half was embarrassing from alleged professionals.

A well deserved whitewash.

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

Siu thing?

Sorry yeah the Ronaldo celebration. One of the Italy players did it after they scored

Bad look

How to get a red card as a non-player

How to get a red card as a non-player

Because this is the first time a coach has spoken to a ref?

 

[Which Tyler]

Because this is the first time a coach has spoken to a ref?

No.
Because of what he said and how he said it (and when he said it, I guess)

 

[dirty harry]

No.
Because of what he said and how he said it (and when he said it, I guess)

Which was clearly disgusting... like no ref ever had to tel Rassie to bugger off when bringing water on lol

 

[Welsh Exile]

Drunk as **** and destroying every keyboard he gets close to

I did a shot every time @dirty harry said Costelow.

 

[Which Tyler]

I don't recall Rassie going on the pitch and berating the ref for not doing his job.

I do recall myself saying that Rassie shouldn't be allowed on the pitch to conduct coaching of his team.
I also do remember myself saying that the Scottish (IIRC) medic who was coaching from the sidelines earlier in this 6N shouldn't be allowed to.


Even if he had and I had defended him (so purely hypothetical here), then two wrongs don't make a right.


A player talking to the ref like that absolutely would be penalised, almost certainly carded, and running the significant risk of a red card.
A coach doesn't have the excuse of heat of battle.

'Berating'?

Are you sure?

But was I wrong? Beard had a decent 30 mins, but after that looked poor...

Concur - I'd be looking at the contribution of Tompkins first.

Someone else on here put it very well in a prior game - Tompkins introduces chaos and confusion to his own team. It really stood out for me today.

'Berating'?

Are you sure?

Not berating, but very rude to Raynal and he had absolutely no reason to speak to him.

He said your job is to give decisions, that's outrageously disrespectful.
