Sounds like Ireland made hard work of beating Russia
Italy have now taken the crown for the most stupid thing anyone has done at the world cup (from the American guy who shoulder charged Farrell) with their props lifting and spearing after the whistle, utterly pathetic and I hope Lovotti in particular gets a long ban for that one, everyone knows how dangerous it is. I think the other guy is lucky to get away with it as well, could easily have been 2 reds.

It looked to me that no. 17 was actually the worst offender, as he seemed to have a better grip on the SA player and was driving his head into the ground. Could he be done after the event?
That’s a red card.
That is the first time I've seen a scrum lost on the strike, rather than a shove, in probably 15 years, if not more.Just goes to show what can happen when the scrum-half doesn't feed it straight to the second row...
