hi paula

I agree with you entirely about the different interpretations of the rucks and mauls by the referees.

Italy are the worst offenders but seem to be protected by the officials.
It was more blatant on Saturday against Scotland but it was happening all the time against England as well.

As for Adam Jones and his "meandering" around the rucks not appearring to know whether he is onside, offside or just on his side.

He has the look of a bewildered scarecrow that doesn't know what field he should be in.

I think the refs must just think he is harmless and they just let him enjoy himself....bless him....lol

The Irish too are very good at being offside but not being spotted.....but they have been doing it for years and so have perfected it.
