Six Nations 2026

I flicked on the rugby over half time in the West Ham City match and those few minutes reminded me how unnecessarily complicated they've made the rules. Not a clue how on earth an incident like that could be a penalty try

Genge pulled the maul down when france could have scored. Penalty try

Harsh

Agreed. Would be nice for one of the pundits to explain it. Rugby can baffle the life out of me at times.

Collapsing the maul was always a rule I didn't understand either. From my experience, which was only playing school rugby in fairness, everyone would fall over in the maul regularly. And it's not like you were thinking I'm going to pull down everyone here. It's just happened because there were like 10 players or more pushing each other and trying to get the ball

Genge collapsed the maul 1m from the line, always a penalty try. However, it should have been an English penalty from the line out. A Ftench player blocked Itoje from tackling the player who wins the line out.

The rules are way too complicated and the game is re-referreed far too much. I find it hard to watch these days

England were absolutely excellent in that first half, France had 2 moments of brilliance but have been very subdued. England are physically dominating them. Much better game plan from England to not just boot the ball back to France all half.

England could well win this but have to keep that scoreboard ticking over.

Tribute to Richie McCaw.

 

[Librarian]

Massive moment before half time feels a bit disproportionate that it may well have decided the entire game

Taking turns lying down having a break in the ruck. Kiwi style
