Farrell complaining to the ref about someone elses conduct after he's been penalised for cheating is peak Farrell.

I say that knowing Biggar would have probaly done the same thing.

Ireland Italy postponed.


They should just play it, judging by last weekend Ireland won't catch anything anyway.

They should also play it because those 5000 Italians are gonna come over here anyway, flights booked, accomodation booked, time off booked, Id go on holiday anyway, even if the game I was going to was cancelled.

At least they won't be in the same space as 45,000 Irish people at the same time though.

Theyll all be on top of a mountain together? Theyll be mingling in Dublin city somewhere, the risk is still there, its a strange move to cancel the game but not restrict travel in general.

Well the people cancelling the game don't have the power to restrict travel. They're doing their best to reduce the risk and while they can't eradicate it, it's still less risk than holding the game.

I accept that but the game was cancelled at the instruction of the Irish government, it all smacks a bit of headline grabbing on their part without also introducing a travel ban. I agree its the smart move, but those people will be coming here anyway so I dont see how it reduces the risk that much.

It can't be all down to a coach though. Of course management is a big factor, but these are the same people that were ranked 1 for a bit, so surely they're not going to just decide to be mediocre becuase they have a new manager.

Gamelan goes a long way. If Pivac and Co. are trying out new tactics, it's going to take a while for it all to come together. Sure they could just stick with playing Warren all, but they won't get away with that for long without the coaches who drive it being there to adapt it.

At least ITV attempted to address Joe Marler sexually assaulting Alun Wyn on live TV, but disappointing that Gareth Thomas immediately makes a joke out of it.

Yeah I saw that, bang out of order. Definitely a ban coming afterwards.
