You know when youโ€™re grabbing a face not a ball in a maul even without looking. I donno what mitigation can be found here. Main question is how on earth was it not picked up in the game. A few friends said they saw it live on tv and thought it was obvious.

Between the Darcy one last week, Carre on Friday, and this yesterday, spoiled for choice.

Yeah, but we all know Scotland lose if they try to play power game against most other tier 1 teams. I think itโ€™s more about the hard-track too. Next week will certainly prove progress if they can get the win, but I think yesterday showed a lot.

You gotta feel for the away teams at Murrayfield having to use the away locker room. Big takeaway today ๐Ÿ˜‰

Mateโ€”one if the best sporting experiences of my life. I think we had about 11 forwards on the pitch by the end but what a bloody day! ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ ๐ŸŽ‰

Weโ€™re packing it in when Finn is doneโ€”weโ€™re retiring #1-23 and hanging them up in Murrayfield.

Saw that too was very harsh and gave wales 3 pts.

Individual brilliance overcomes team incompetence for Scotland today. ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

This is on the players, though. Theyโ€™re getting bullied and making terrible unforced errors. White has had a horror show, slow playing the ruck has cost two tries.

100% how is he still on the pitch? So obviousโ€”heโ€™s dropped about 4 balls.

This is Italy all over, getting bullied.

14 pt swing. No composure.

One of the worst decisions Iโ€™ve seen Ben White make.

Insert blindfold emoji.

Yeah, fair was tight on replay.

Personal opinion obviouslyโ€”but feels like they need to find ways to stop attackers just jumping into the opposition player.

21.02.2026 14:47 ๐Ÿ‘ 1 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

No itโ€™s notโ€”if theyโ€™re going to be pushing these new kicking rules you have to penalize people who are clearly second to the ball. He was going for the ball sure, but he was miles off getting it. If thatโ€™s not penalized weโ€™ll just get more moments like Arundell last week.

Literally just said the same thing. 3 times I think?
