Glad the studio called out the bad decision to disallow the Mako try. The rugby groups I'm on are ripping Garces to bits (and not just England fans).

And as for Scotland, first try Laidlaw goes in from the side, second try was a forward pass and only a penalty for a blatant shoulder charge.
Scotland were flattered by the score and Italy deserved their scores at the end, both wooden spoon candidates.

Feel like the pendulum is shifting in Ireland’s favour here.

I think the game has just flattened out a bit with the injuries and subs. Lawes is a massive sub to bring on though, best tackler in world rugby and he's very quick to spot a chance to smash someone.

Well at least that should put to bed any thoughts that the ref is a homer.

Great try, just about level, May got taken out as well. Irish fans will moan about a forward pass but those ones never get given because it shaped backwards and then drifted.

He's been immense since he came on.

Bit early but I'm going to give some man of the match shouts, Mako, Curry, May and Daly have been fucking brilliant, any of them getting it and I'm happy.
