Definitely some French nerves. But if those passes stick...
-
French defence making thier pack look as effective as ours
-
Two rucks in a row Underhill has just dived straight over off his feet in front of the ref who yells play on.
@toddy an extremely poor passage of play for England too, panic and headless chook stuff
-

Agree. Dupont is awesome and played brilliantly but he gets watched so much everything he does is noticed and mentioned.

Reckon France is the only NH side that has a realistic chance for 2023. I’d say them SA NZ and you can never rule out the Aussies. Ireland would have to get past France or us in any case.

Well done Les Crapauds. Well deserved and so good to watch.
Aside from the rather annoying fact that they are much better than us the other important moments in the game we’re I feel the Teflon hands the French had in the first half. 2 or was it 3 butchered tries. Could have been ugly. The Nowell/Jaminet penalty issue - I felt sanity prevailed but was holding my breath. The threebiggest fuck ups for England? The failure to give new blood a chance over the last 15 months or so. Bizarre selections and the failure to secure the services of Shaun Edwards for the umpteenth time.
-
for me it was the French defence, continuity and cohesion between forwards and backs that makes them look slick along with that drive to get that extra yard with ball in hand, knowing your support players will be there on your shoulder.
England on the other hand, alot of thier play seemed ineffective and directionless, alot of aimless and poor kicks, in part due to the French defence, but think they lacked patience as well.
-
I didn’t think England were that bad. But France are a very strong team all round.
Bien jouée!
