6N 2025: England v France

[Bones]

Mauvaka is shit

[sparky]

B-B in after England gift wrap one.

[Bones]

England defence is fucked outside phase play. Reckon Scotland will roll them too if Borthwick stays on.

[sparky]

Great conversion.

England 0 France 7.

[Billy Tell]

France dominating but butter fingers a masseuse would be proud of.

[Bones]

Oh boy, Smith telling his boys to use their heads.... after he's put a kick right into counter attacking hands and had it tidied up by his outsides.

Then makes a half break and throws a 20:80. Jesus wept.

[sparky]

Bielle-Biarrey has serious gas.

[Bones]

I'm struggling to believe France got that back by legal means.

[Bones]

Half the England backline standing a couple of metres away from the scrum.

These officials are abysmal.

[sparky]

Lawrence in for England.

[Bones]

Not clear and obvious

[sparky]

Try given.

[Victor Meldrew]

Ref didn't muck about. Try given

[sparky]

England 7 France 7.

[Bones]

Love Ramos' disinterest in tackling Lawrence

[sparky]

Three minutes to half time.

And England have a penalty.

[sparky]

France look caked.

[Bones]

If Ramos had gone outside instead of in, France would be down the other end.

[sparky]

France have been wasteful in this first half. A couple of absolute coach killers in there.

And the whistle goes for half time. 7-7.

[Bones]

I can never understand why players choose to kick the ball out when they're a couple of metres from touch.
