France v All Blacks

[Sapetyvi]

Who gave that offload to Charlie? Fucking outrageous.

Lucky our big man has good hands. Try for Charlie.

Frog club owners will be lining up to recruit him

If he was thinking of going before that try he is definitely off now!!

@mariner4life not Kaino.....

What? Fuck.

Good try off a lucky knock back.

Look at our green midfield!

@antipodean said in France:

Fuck your rule Barnes, learn the rule the scrumhalf can't be taken out at the ruck.

To be fair our forwards aren't giving perenara the protection he needs there. French comitting more numbers

[taniwharugby]

@Sapetyvi offload, yeah yeah it was an offload....Read

[Nepia]

What the hell were France doing there? If they just ran straight and hard like in the first half they would have scored instead the halfback did some weird pass that got knocked on.

[mariner4life]

Kaino! I never doubted you!

The rules say you can't interfere with the halfback, doesn't say he has to have protection for that rule to apply.

You are right tho, he hasn't been looked after.

[Nepia]

I like Ardie's frizz better than the Kid n Play.

[ACT Crusader]

Great try

[Sapetyvi]

@taniwharugby one replay angle looked like it was intentional. Certainly wasn't the case on a closer look

[Donsteppa]

Very soft and then slow to react from the pack there.

[taniwharugby]

Poor scrum and quick tap, try

[Tordah]

wow, good try, ABs not paying attention

[Nepia]

@ACT-Crusader said in France:

Great try

Yep, nice pass ....

[antipodean]

@mariner4life Great tackle. Crockett almost gave away a penalty at the ruck off his feet playing at the ball.

[Stargazer]

That's what happens if you take Todd off ...

[No Quarter]

I thought quick taps had to be taken from the mark. But anyway, good opportunistic play from the French 9.

[mariner4life]

Great scrum, great pass. This is a good game

Agree. But you can tackle him once he has the ball and it's out of the ruck

Faumaina showing why he's not the the starting tighthead prop in that scrum
