RBS 6 Nations - Wales vs Italy- 10/03/2012, 14:30

What was the yellow for,please?
Taking the man out in the air. Wasn't anything malicious from Halfpenny, but I've seen "better" ones carded before, and Parisse hit the deck really hard.


I used to like Davies as a commentator up to this match but I can't effing stand him. People moan about Brian Moore but Jiffy is an absolute joke.


What's he saying? (I'm watching on RTE.)
Just generally being a biased idiot.
He actually said, earlier, when the Welsh were about 5m from the line then were pinged "The referee shouldn't call that, he should let the game flow more".
Why not just give Wales a 100pt start while we're at it?

Bloody Hell that's why I watch RTE at least they're biased the same way I am.
 
>: )

The Millenium curse of the substitutes disrupting good opportunities strikes again.

And the Italians manage to mess up again. :rolleyes:
 
Superior fitness told in the end, but I bet there were some squeaky bums at half time.

Wales aren't the team the media are building them up to be.

Unfortunately it seems Wales can only put in really good winning displays against Ireland.

Anyone know who won MotM?

I think you are being a but negative. Media have been a little presumptuous. Certainly still not the team that was there in the 70's for sure.

Semi finalist in WC and on for a grand slam is pretty good for this young team though. They are winning and they are trying to play fast rugby, attractive rugby.

To many minds on next week today. Great Italian defence aswell.
 
I don't give a stuff, we won again. Lets be honest here, we didn't need to be even close to 100% to beat Italy and I know we will rise to the occasion next week. Couple of other things;

The Yellow Card - utter joke
Commentator Davies - utter joke
 
Christ, Gatland needs to pull his head out his bum - He's as bad as Davies.
Why's that?
Iain's right the sin-bin was laughable. Crap game that we were never in danger of losing. Italy are ****.
 
Having a major moan about the ref, basically said that because they had better posession/territory that they shouldn't be penalised.

He might not be spot on there, but if Clancy, for example, calls the ****ing blatant knock-on from Bergamasco, then we have a scrum and Halfpenny isn't the position to get sin-binned in the next phase of play... Which was another appalling decision from the tinkering gyppo.

But then when Parisse hacked down field and North didn't release the ball, he called a scrum not a penalty.

He made poor decisions on both sides, and Gatland needs to pipe down if he thinks that it was the ref that made his side look that poor in the first half.
 
Warren Gatland is a manipulative, obnoxious prick who's second only to Brendan Venter as the worst possible ambassador the game could have. He's historically always done the pissy interviews mistaking himself for Alex Fergusion.



You'll live longer if you choose not to listen to him.
