Second yellow for Mori?

Unless Italy address the issue of 1st up tackling, they are going to continue in this vein. Sorry to say it, but some of the efforts look seriously tackle shy.

You have to wonder what do they work on all week?

Having been on the end of crap like that often over the years i really feel your frustration. Good that a young team is getting experience but hope it doesn’t just damage them

I just get the feeling that all we're doing is teaching them to lose badly

Silly silly boy, but Scotland's attack is a bit pants given that Italy are refusing to tackle

Italy need a few years of winning some games in the next league down really

You'd think. But they make it up as they go along. It's obviously too.much to ask for some consistency.

Not for me no, yellow though yes, was an illegal clearout, suspect the ref is invoking the mercy clause

Posted: **Sat Mar 20, 2021 3:53 pm**

Well at least they are consistant, over 40 points conceded per game.

Posted: **Sat Mar 20, 2021 4:06 pm**

Just the levels of dim that are staggering. You wonder if they have even read the Laws in regards player safety.

Because it's outside the international window and no one seems to have actually bothered to secure their agreement before announcing the date for the fixture to be played...

If we shot every player who gave away a stupid penalty we'd have no players left
Maybe shooting one would discourage the rest?

Pour encourager les autres?
