Ireland v France 6N

sparky

Is George Gregan stoned?

sparky

Phew, they've gone again.

Irish ITV commentator = Gordon Darcy

Bones

@Jailbreak7 yeah just saw that. Makes sense now. Same era as BOD and co.

Bones

Barnes is completely ignoring both sides with multiple players going off their feet on their own ball at every ruck, it's a farce.

Tim

France finally getting some jacklers over the ball.

KiwiMurph

Amazing passage of play

sparky

Ramos with the long shot at goal. Just short.

Jailbreak7

Ntamack kicks far too often for mine.

Tim

Awful play from Du Pont there. Has good ball on the line from a break, and just slows it all down then throws to an isolated forward.

sparky

Lively French start to the second half but no change to the scoreboard.

KiwiMurph

You can't take the French winger out like that

Victor Meldrew

Get the impression that if France just be a bit more controlled, they could equalise & start to pull away

Bones

What the fuck is that Wayne?

Steve

Wayne Barnes "I can't make a player stop in mid air"

Faiinganuuku wasnt extended the same courtesy from the ref against the Irish.

sparky

France the better side so far in the second half. Ireland still lead by six.

Steve

Wayne Barnes "I can't make a player stop in mid air"

Faiinganuuku wasnt extended the same courtesy from the ref against the Irish.

The modern game is just littered with inconsistencies like this.

Bones

@Steve a minute later he penalises a french player who got taken out in the air by Murray after Murray over ran the kick...

sparky

James Lowe having a great game.

KiwiMurph

Really poor coaching for France not to have Jalibert on.
