Highlights of Scotland-Wales, including that try by Louis Rees-Zammitt. Best game of 2021 so far:

England Vs Italy highlights:

There were ‘highlights’?....

For the me the play of the game was the Italian try at around the 60th minute mark. Great to see an attacking midfielder run from deep, receive the ball at pace and then go into contact with momentum and offload.

That last Scottish try was really impressive with 14 men.

Wales nearly bottled it. Could have been a bigger win if they actually landed kicks. Wales for the grand slam.

😂

We won’t beat England with Biggar

But you might if Farrell gets red carded for a shoulder charge. Here’s hoping your luck continues

Second person today float that lovely idea to me!

As was scrum penalty packing seven against eight.

It was eight against eight in the scrum by that stage. They took off a Wing and put on the Reserve Prop.

Their first try was a cracker too

Actually, I think you’re right. Nel seem to give Welsh LH quite a few problems, but maybe not all of the legal variety!

Ireland by 5-8

I'm pretty sure whenever Pearce is trying to communicate with France at the breakdown, he's just speaking English but putting on a French accent and I absolutely love it.

[MiketheSnow]

Lowe has a leg on him

Better as full back?

Nah better as a link winger with an attacking fullback. Him and DMac were pretty lethal.

[Bones]

Fuck really? He looked at that once and called it a clear trip. There was nothing clear about that.

[Bones]

And then they have to take half a dozen more looks after clearly seeing Lowe's foot out.

[Bones]

Just about to say Dupont has been quiet, then him and Fickou come alive. Classy try.

[MiketheSnow]

Ireland their own worst enemies

Patient phase play will see them home.

[Bones]

@MiketheSnow yeah despite the try, France are looking off today.

[Bones]

Haaaa...yep definitely an off day.

[sparky]

Ireland 3 France 10.

Ireland have dominated possession and territory, but have failed to take their chances. France having an off day in the backs but ahead.

[sparky]

Clash of heads between Healy and Henderson both off under concussion protocols. Ireland forced to go to the bench early.
