Officials to the rescue for Wales there. No clear separation there and Williams is within a metre of the completed tackle so isn't that offside?

Am I missing something or was there CLEAR separation to overturn the on-field decision?

I think there was. From behind you could see it. Clear pen try though.

That's pretty useless reffing, Wales got away with that. Looked like he was defo offside, earlier in the move the Italian players were taken out without the ball, I also think a Welsh player Williams maybe? pushed the player before he had the ball too right at the ruck before the ball was lost.
Theres no excuse to be getting that stuff wrong when you are looking at it on replays

Is this TMO related to Ms Hodnett and goes to the same optician?

Both tmo and Dickson (God he was actually right) tried to steer the ref too.

Did he? He didn’t need to milk anything, it was one of the most obvious penalties of the day.

There was contact with Williams so a penalty but he really does like to make the most of it...

Italians have been so inaccurate in attacking positions and it's really hurt them this game. Wales doing a much better job when they are in advanced position showing proper killer instinct

Fair play, Rhys Webb looking good. Buzzing for Rio Dyer too. Must be hard for Cardiff Blues supporters to not be able to say he isn’t up to it etc.

Wales deserve the lead as they've been much more clinical with their chances - but can't help but think the blunder by the officials for the disallowed try could have been a massive turning point and has robbed us of a much closer game

The ref may not be helping Italy much, but jeez what a pub side. Can't pass, catch, tackle, make the easy final pass for a cert try - twice, tackle in the air when on for a pen. They're flattered for their 3 points so far, and Wales are strolling this.

Pub side is a bit harsh - they haven't played as well as they did against France and Ireland admittedly, but they have made some nice breaks

Bit lucky as they clearly sealed off from Tipuric but given some other decisions I think Wales would take it.

Wyn Jones has been a weak link today. He shouldn’t have been picked in the squad over Nicky Smith.

They’ve played good when they have the ball, not clinical enough though.

Karl Dickson just saved the Italian no 11 there. This ref doesn’t seem to know the rules and is relying on his colleagues.

I thought Tomos Williams was looking ponderous due to Gatland’s tactics, but Rhys Webb is making that look doubtful today.

Thought this match would be really good but Italy have been poor and Wales have looked comfortable ... maybe they burned themselves out against France and Ireland and are really missing their sparkling 15.
Not sure how much Wales will learn from this although the win was probably more important anyway.

Yeah, I think Shane was alluding to that when he said Webb has been playing heads-up rugby.

What's the AR doing there? Wales prop lost his bind and put hand on floor before the big push for the pen.

I don’t think Williams was really in a position to get that.
That said, if the Italian captain was Welsh he’d be getting rinsed on yer.

Agree on both. If Varney was Biggar too. Suppose he is Welsh though ha

Italians clearing out rucks have been really untidy this game. Lots of stray boots. Some bad presentation.

Italy are just looking a little short on confidence and missing their talisman at 15 plus the messed up tries hasn't helped. It's a real shame the officials managed to disallow that try incorrectly in the first half, might have made the game more interesting.

Agree Wales have given away a few. Guess they’re not red zone though. Daf Jenkins probably given away three on his own?
