BBC coverage Wales match

I know our lineouts are not great but the BBC did not want to show them in real time today.
I don't normally complain about TV coverage but I thought the camera work was amateurish at times.

And what's with the stadium big screens not showing a replay of Halfpenny's card incident?

Who has control over that ?

That's fairly common. Stadiums often avoid showing replays of anything controversial to avoid riling those who may have had a few too many.

I got the impression that the producer had probably heard about rugby but never actually watched a game! Missing lineouts, poor camera work and poor camera angles. One lineout was missed because the producer thought we wanted to watch the Italian center for about a minute!

At one stage near the end of the game, the camera man was chasing Scott Williams down the touch line but somehow forgot to point the camera at him. All we saw we various shots of legs and the touchline.
