Arghh sloppy line out too much movement from Italy ahead of the throw in!
72

grootblousmile on 6 February 2021 at 5:50 pm

France steals the lineout ball… and attack… they make 50m.

74

Bullscot on 6 February 2021 at 5:51 pm

Surely France knocked on before Italy player slapped the ball backwards

Too easy France, will have to look at the laws – is it only a knock on if the ball touches the ground after the player lost if forward, in which case did the Italy player slap back negate it being considered lost forward?
78

grootblousmile on 6 February 2021 at 5:56 pm

Knock by Italy on the ground…
