What a cracking weekend of rugby that was and La Crunch didn’t disappoint, France won the game in Lyon with a last minute penalty. Fans aren’t happy with the penalty though, should it have been a penalty? See what you make of it below and the comments underneath ..
This is the tackle that led to the penalty at the death in the France v England game. Ben Earl penalised for a no arms tackle. What do you think ? Fair or harsh? #FRAvENG #FRAANG #SixNationsRugby #rterugby pic.twitter.com/oH4i8z6SzM

The ref made a decision, whether you agree with it or not a real rugby player will accept it. A terrific game with some superb tries, why don’t you highlight those?
Hey ho, just nice to be in the mix again with some exciting rugby. Traditional 6N, always get more decisions at home. Any Scots saying English are bad losers I direct to their France game.
There’s absolutely no way a TMO sees the footage at full speed and is in a better position to make that call than the on field officials. So why is he getting involved?
TMO shouldn’t be involved in technical decisions in phase play.
Especially when there was attempt to wrap pic.twitter.com/Gqj3uLrAV1
