The ball doesn't look at all like it's there to be kicked, unless you go straight through the player's head first... which is what POC did! I'd position it somewhere between clumsy and malicious... I'll plump for reckless. »
Looks like a case of sour grapes from Cockerill to me. Stone me though, imagine trying to stop Bakiies on the charge like that?!?! Credit to Ayerza for putting his body on the line.
Does that presenter actually do anything? These videos have really lost their way - they lack the charm and insight the last presenters brought in. She's fit but I guess she can't be much good at having a conversation otherwise that would feature in the vids!
Italian decision making was much better than I've seen it for a long time - they took the points when they were on offer, were patient and generally kicked quite well, all things which they usually don't quite get right. They did, however, look a little structurally ragged at times when they ran out of steam in attack. »
