Clear 
Ioane is having a cracker
The ball is “clearly forward out of the hands”. No video of the actual hands shown.
The catcher is behind the passer when he catches the ball. All you needed to know to call that a good pass.
Pathetic TMO performance.
Italy playing beautifully. Control and precision. Excellent defence.
“Mitigation. The 9 was going backwards”. Instead of making sh1t up - just say “it will remain a yellow”. Don’t give a reason.
What’s a “turd try”?
Italy win this game today. I can just feel it in my salt waters.
Italy by a lone point
come on Ireland
