did they overwhelm italy for the rugby union can be frustrating when the technicalities of the laws actually dominate what we see on the pitch. the game at twickenham was a reminder that in any game you do need to concentrate on the rules. england's coach said the get out ofjail free cards had all been used up. first game at home, victory was rescued against the french. then, to cardiff, where england won the game they had virtually lost. eddiejones wanted to take it italy to the cleaners. in monopoly terms, something like that. england barely got started in the first half. this was a kind of congestion charge. ball mauled over the line. dan cole in the thick of it and the bottom of it. england were flummoxed by italy's tactics. the game actually stopped and just became a debate about the laws. in the first half, italy missed three penalties but failed kick with the right bounce
