1624426405411934211 | @bencoles_ Ireland getting away with a lot here. Porter in the scrum! French lineout jumpers being clattered in the air (not sure if that is allowed tbh). Players interfering in the ruck while offside. Barnes always so good but a smidge on the home side I feel. | 0 |

1624869257933688833 | @bencoles_ Where does Tom Curry fit into this back row when he’s fit? Ludlam at 8? Who misses out on the 23 from the four involved today + him? | 5 |

1624913371043622912 | @bencoles_ Has there ever been a better 40 mins of 6 Nations rugby than that first half in the Ireland game? And why was Atonio not given a red card? | 1 |
