French kick over.

England 13 France 20.

[Victor Meldrew]

England's discipline letting them down when on attack.

Good game to watch. French passing is great to watch. Ben Youngs having a great game.

[sparky]

France are really blessed with young Number 10s at the moment. Jalabert, 22, and Ntamack, 21.

Farrell with a kick.

England 16 France 20. 25 minutes to go.

England winning kicking contest.

Really? Malins has looked a bit meh for me. That last one, caught in the 22, takes it right up to the 22 line and belts it.... infield. What was the point in that? If you're not kicking it out, might as well run as many metres forward as you can before kicking.

Edit: then France catch it, put it high and regather.

From when I typed it English kicking faltered!

[Bones]

Malins passing skills now being shown up.

Is May related to Beauden? Everything he does just works.

[sparky]

England in at the side. "Never through the gate." Giving away sloppy penalties in the last 15 minutes again.

[Bones]

Slade has defended excellently for the most part.

[Bones]

Is Sinckler really chewing gum?

[sparky]

Last ten minutes. Still a four point gap in France's favour.

[Bones]

Oh that's delicious. Skinny Penaud obliterates Genge at the breakdown.

[sparky]

Curry knocked on when England deep in attack.

[Bones]

A front row named Kyle, Jamie and Ellis.

Awful.

[sparky]

Itoje scores. Or has he? Was it held up? Goes to the TMO.

[sparky]

Looks like Teddy Thomas held that up.

[sparky]

On Field decision. No try.

[sparky]

TMO awards the try.

England 21 France 20.

[akan004]

France have taken a lot of bad options over the last 20 minutes.

Well we won't hear England complaining about poor referee decisions now....that's an interesting call from the TMO.

[sparky]

Farrell's conversion good. England 23 France 20. 2 minutes left.
