Rugby Union Six Nations 2023

Fast line out has to be played with the same ball that was put out of play, bit unfair we got penalised for it but thems the rules. They should probably review it though, at the very least it should have been an Irish line ball or penalty since the Scots were responsible for the infringement.

same ball and which hasn't been touched by anyone else (including if it hits a cameraman).

I don't think there was an infringement as such as play was not started correctly - it wouldn't be an infringement if a quick lineout was taken in front of where the ball went out of play, just an invalid one.

Curious one though.

Maybe infringement was the wrong word, but I don't think conceding the line ball for an invalid line out would be unfair, similar to a foul throw in football.
 
Well a win in Rome papers over loads of cracks the recall of Webb being the major plus at least he went forward. On another day we should have been given a piece of wood shaped like a spoon.
The England game came as a shock. I was expecting a much close game, looked like Mr Edwards took the whip to some French arses ;-)
Ireland not running away with it in the first half, just went through the phases to a well deserved win. I hope the injury count does not prevent them winning the Grand Slam, but this will happen in the world cup.
Hope its a great day out on Sat by far the best team this year, and Faz is a blue :-)
 
Dry in Edinburgh, so it could be a decent game. Will be interesting to see how Scotland go without Russell and Hogg. Kinghorn at standoff is a new one to me.

France will beat Wales by, um, some. I'll go for 18.

Ireland-England will be interesting to see whether England can stop the Irish pack and however many props they decide to field!
