What an outstanding decision by the match officials!!! There is NO place for this in sport. Many will say it is easier with a video referee / TMO. Yes - I fully agree. It is VERY difficult to make such calls without TJ’s/ ARs and technology. Credit - sky sports @BBCSport


The officials were spot on and totally correct in law. You cannot jump to avoid a tackle or jump into a tackle. This was clarified by World Rugby. In the act of scoring you can dive and we have seen some wonderful tries from this. Screenshot WRU TikTok

What a depressing first half! Innovation in attack from Italy…. Their secret weapon @ITVRugby is @RichardHodges12 in the coaching staff! Another well blessed coach lost to Welsh Rugby full of knowledge! @rossharries1


A pleasure to be invited back on @talkSPORT by @martinkelner Always enjoy being on his show. Reviewing a VERY disappointing opening game for Wales in the @SixNationsRugby & previewing 2 exciting games today - Ireland hosting England and Scotland hosting Italy. Diolch Martin.

Diolch Martin.

Looking forward to being a guest on the @theJeremyVine @BBCRadio2 show this afternoon. Discussing rugby initiations and the reality of the harm they can do should they go overboard. Diolch for the invite.

Back in the day there would be good old ‘blood and thunder’! Pushing and shoving in the modern game seems pretty pointless! A sign of how professional the game is and well regulated by TMO, Match Officials with cameras everywhere! @SkySportsRugby @talkSPORT
