Bit of an odd one, cause you'd have to say by the letter of the law it's a clear red card - direct contact to the head, with force, no mitigating factors. Technically it's a poor decision to only give a yellow. But I agree with you that, on the feel of the tackle and the actual levels of danger involved, it was just a yellow.

Clear obstruction there.
Good defence however whilst under the cosh.

How was that not obstructing?

It was so much easier to blame Them. It was bleakly depressing to think They were Us. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

You get the feeling that France will regret only being 9 points up at the break. They've left at least 7 points out there and this Welsh team doesn't need to be given second chances.

Can’t see us creating anything .

Controversially , I’d get Patchell on at 12 and move Parkes out .

We need to change this up a bit. Don’t kick to them loosely and get them guessing in defence. Patch on ASAP.

Defence is the main worry, I don't see how replacing Parkes with Patch helps that. Replacing Biggar makes more sense, whose kicking out of hand has been crap.

Yep, a player who isn't particularly flashy bar monster hand offs, but Wales play alot better and look alot more solid with him in the team.

12 offloads to nil. Wales has missed 18 tackles. Interesting.

Our breakdown is a disaster. Slow ball or turnovers.

Why the fuck would France replace Ntamack? Is he injured?

This game is far from over. I’m disappointed that Ntamack is off but Lopez is probably a more reliable place kicker. France must score first, and if they do, I think they will win, but if Wales score first....

Ah. Iced up quad, so injured by the look of it.

That should be red purely for the stupidity of it. What an idiot.

I can only assume he has a mental issue cause what on earth is the thought process there? Attacking 5m maul, in control of of the game, player isn't a threat to the maul, world cup QF... ?

Lunacy! He shouldn’t play for France again! If we can keep the Welsh out for 15/20 minutes then anything is possible.

Well that was fucking stupid. Let’s see how this changes the game.

Wales looking a bit more positive already, although quick ball seems to be eluding us.
