Travesty of Justice !

Read the rule book, my friend, if a player takes an opponent of his feet, & into the air during a tackle, he has a duty of care to place him back onto the ground, NOT throw him down from a great height. The fact that the French players feet went above the head of the Welsh tackler, only goes to compound the offence. Still harsh, but, it's within the ruling of the sport, & only a bloody game, innit ??  :

yes but he was a frenchman

[GordonA]

No he isn't, he is actually part Irish !!

The player Gordon. Try and keep up.

Despite being dumped out by the French, I hear that the welsh have taken a leaf out of their book, by planting miles and miles vineyards in South Whales. Unfortunately the type of grape used is very acidic, but they reckon it should provide us with an endless amount of bitter welsh whine for years to come.:D
