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

[Which Tyler]

Why Welsh scrum?
Ball was knocked on by Grady wasn't it?

Nothing illegal going on, but clearly in Grady's hands, then going forwards.

And why are either of them on the pitch. Both absolutely need HIAs after that.

 

[AlRums]

That's a red guarenteed

Thankfully not

 

[dirty harry]

I get the argument, but Grady got to the ball, Pani never, and Pani is tackling higher than the 6'4 Grady...

If these were always deemed as rugby incidents I'd be happy, but they are Always called as cards

 

[General Melchett]

What a tackle

 

[Reiser99]

Fair play Raynal. Full speed shows just how quickly it happened.

However, both have to be off for a HIA, that's just negligent at this point.

 

[die_mole]

Garbisi may not be the beast 10 but he's giving Costello a masterclass

Him and Lubbock are very similar. Lubbock should join him in top14 where you really don't need to kick sticks as a 10

Wasn't a tackle though, only looks like one on slowmo - it's why he wanted to see the wide angle in full speed at the end, it was a split second between collection and collision

 

[AlRums]

Wales actually looked good there



For a moment

 

[Bluemoon]

Grady for Tompkins has been the right call. Finally Mason getting a run at centre and not the wing.

 

[die_mole]

Rare you see a rugby incident waved off like that these days, good reffing, poor TMOing

She needed to take the hint the first time raynal said to move on

 

[Reiser99]

Agree, there is a lack of consistency over those incidents. Reminds me of when Steward was sent off. If he hadn't turned it might have been a similar incident.

 

[dirty harry]

Thankfully not

I would agree, but its red all day in any other game without Joy as a TMO

It was a tackle because Grady caught the ball

 

[General Melchett]

I can see Gatland wanting the roof open in future so that the booing can escape

 

[Crash Hamster]

Apart from the fact that hthe tackle is complete and he drops it, it's a try.

 

[Jimbo]

Not sure you can use that argument when Reynal was the one having none of it, I get it's your team and they are under the pump, both players are competing for a ball in a split second, the ball in gathered and a collision happens, not everything nasty contact has to result in a card.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Never seen an own try before

Literally only scored that because of Italy dragging him over

 

[TommiG88]

Apart from the fact that hthe tackle is complete and he drops it, it's a try.

Agreed

 

[dirty harry]

That's a yellow and pen try... Italian never releases

 

[ntun82]

To my Italian eyes, he loses control while grounding

So no try
