Can’t see any mitigation, very upright, high degree of danger

Italy should be exceptionally proud of that half, we’ve got a live game here

Incredible defensive work but France haven't done themselves and favours.

It's a miracle that we're only 7 down, the French have butchered a couple of seemingly certain tries. Perhaps they wanted to atone for the phantom try the ref gave them

So sloppy by france.
2 late tackles and we lose Jallibert.
Danty tackle high to finish a real poor half.

France have been sloppy, but Italy’s cover defence has been excellent and has out them under pressure

Apparently fine for Tuilagi to clear someone out with a hand chop to the throat.

Italian tight five just stop with ball in hand and go to ground. Gutless

Last ruck a perfect example. Superb jackle by the Italian and inexplicably told to let it go when it was a clear penalty to Italy
