Garbisi really is garbage. Just no idea how to run a backline.

Looked like it again.

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:42 pm**

That was knocked on surely?

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:43 pm**

Youngs is truly awful. They have to have somebody better than him.

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:44 pm**

Nicely worked try there.

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:44 pm**

a) Italy's kicking is sh*t
b) Miles fwd and a knock on

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:45 pm**

was that a 3rd knockon not called?

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:45 pm**

26mins and Italy look a little knackered.

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:45 pm**

There seemed to be at least 2 forward passes in that passage

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:45 pm**

Clearly another knock on in the build up to that try

There were only 2 forward passes. We are allowed 3.

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:45 pm**

Nice run, made it look easy.

BaaBaas reffing today

Yup. Seems refs are under a directive to ignore any knock ons that result in an England try.

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:46 pm**

Looks like they're ignoring anything that goes forward then.

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:46 pm**

Aside from it being knocked backwards but good to see the neutrals are watching. Starting to find some rythmn now

I liked how the forwards told him to fuck off in the build up to Hill's try after he hurled it at Farrell's head earlier in the sequence.

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:48 pm**

Youngs again there. 3 shockers in 30 minutes

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:50 pm**

Isn't it weird how England don't look clueless when Farrell isn't playing fly half

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:50 pm**

These commentators...after 30 minutes, young English lads no longer want to be Dupont...they want to be Farrell... I need what he is drinking...jaysus

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:51 pm**

Against France, Italy played keep ball and multi phase. They did it for 5 mins here, scored a try and then went all Farrell.

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:53 pm**

Yeah Italy’s kicking game makes no sense

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:53 pm**

Everything about this game so far is poor. Both teams and the reffing team

Ford is playing well, keeping England on the front foot.

We've got at least 4, but Eddie doesn't seem to have any interest in them.

Billy’s first positive contribution of the tournament

Ford's passing compared to Young or Farrell is a big difference

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 2:57 pm**

Garbisi is as bad this week as he was good last. Not helping Italy at all.

Sad but true...needs half to get there and hopefully adjust

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 3:00 pm**

Our rust in attack is palpable, but it's nice to see us having a go.

Billy managing a charge down is a collector's item. Good to see him working that hard.

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 3:00 pm**

Ohh Italy. Get out of the tournament. That was so, so stupid

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 3:00 pm**

Blimey, the ref is pinging anyone even vaguely off their feet.

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 3:00 pm**

Jesus. This is really dumb now from Italy. Such a low % play and Garbisi coughs up the pen. Half time can't come fast enough for Italy

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 3:01 pm**

That's very harsh

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 3:01 pm**

Knock on by Youngs, I reckon.

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 3:02 pm**

Harsh on Italy, #17 looked on feet to me

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 3:02 pm**

Great finish by May and Italy pay the price for retarded tactics.

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2021 3:02 pm**

Limbs. Great finish
