one slightly odd thing has been Slade kicking to the left touchline both clearing and pens in our half. He has a much bigger boot than faz, but the angle of left to left must offset that.
Interesting though, thought clearly put into it.

But it was four on three five metres out…
I meant the JVP box kick that Farrell nearly scored.

Woodward saying, "We shouldn't use any of the subs at any point, cause no-one needs to be replaced in this starting XV," while watching the same Dombrandt and Farrell that we were.

Once again an idiotic penalty to start the 2nd half! Fair play Italy but fuck me we shoot ourselves in the foot at will!

Enjoyed Chessum ‘clearing out’ the Italian to leave him below Farrell. I like the cut of the man’s jib.

Great work from Chessum. Just flips them over so Farrell's on top and then carries on playing.

Surprised no penalty - Negri's hands were in Farrell's face and close to his eyes.

In fairness, nothing wrong with the tackle, but no need for the hands in the face and trying to push his face into the ground. I'll back Farrell on that one.

Feel for Hassell-Collins, nothing at all and now subbed off.

I was gonna complain about Mako coming on, but I'm annoyed that Genge didn't go off for an HIA warlier, so I'm comfortable.

Does he though? I'll agree that Lawrence is a better centre than Smith was, but has Farrell been better this week than last, ball in hand?
