Bahaha BB holy shit, I almost feel sorry for France there.. but not quite.

Nothing worse, but nice to be on our side. Barrett on for BBBR?

He must be injured? Reiko has his first touch.

Rieko, dammit

@chimoaus said in France:

Is the French winger related to Speight, they look bloody similar.

Yes

[Kiwidom]

Any one know what the penalty count is at this stage?

[Donsteppa]

Too many missed tackles...

[booboo]

Long advantage there compared to very short one the other way to us 1st half

[mariner4life]

We just keep giving them the ball.

Love the french running from deep, their offloads keep hitting a guy at pace and it's causing no end of trouble

[Gunner]

Man we do some dumb fuck shit.

[ACT Crusader]

One of those ones where the halfback has his hands on the ball but "it's not out". ALB penalised.

[kiwiinmelb]

Need to be careful , barnes likes dishing out yellows

[taniwharugby]

@booboo think it was because of where the offense occurred which was back in the 22

[Crash]

Why is BB persisting with those bloody chips - we're just playing right into french hands literally

[dingo]

@ACT-Crusader
Same thing just before when TJ was reaching for ball but Barnes just laughed

[mariner4life]

Their new halfback is nippy

[taniwharugby]

Time for Kaino to have a rest?

Our defensive lineout gives me the horn

Hmmm, easily aroused you are

@Crash said in France:

Because the French defensive line is very compressed and flat.

[dingo]

If we are going to persist with these short kicks then A Savea's pace might be useful

[Nepia]

Hmmm, I've only just realised R Ioane is on for Crotty and not Naholo/Savea ....

Good tight match to start your test career.

Yp too upright, and a bit off the pace.

[Nepia]

Hahaha the commentator just said "difficult to know what Barrett is going to do".

Nope, he's going to kick it ....
