            This feels like watching the France of old. Ghastly mistakes, mixed in with the unbelievably sublime.

              France reflexes seem to be slow to react.

                            Yeah they just don't look comfortable building phases. They'll do some really good work for 2-3 phases and look like they're building, then just start walking or doing random nothing moves.

                              Not convinced France are handling the pressure well. Playing scrappily and hoping something will turn up rather than earn position and points.

                                  @KiwiMurph Yeah, not getting back to offer counter attack or a kicking option. Especially around 50 minutes in they couldn't counter attack or offer a good kick chase, despite some average Irish kicks.

                                          Edwards seems whatever you did in the week got lost in translation.
