    France look up for this.
    Will be very determined to stop England winning the GS.

    I just want France to be up for it. Which they seem to be based on the first couple of minutes.

    Owens pings Fickou for being on the neck, watches Kruis do the same and tells him to get back onside.

    This is oddly like the game France played against Ireland in 2014 when we were going for the championship.

    Hugh Cahill

    Careful now, RTE might decide to hire Robson if we complain too much.

    Good offensive lineman work from Mako Vunipola. I wouldn't have awarded that.

    You'd like to think this sort of injustice (and the Brown incident) would fire on the French, but they'll throw the towel in.

    The BBC commentary is horrible.

    TMO wasn't in his ear to check that

    Mike Brown is a spiteful man

    He said something or other about side on. I'm a bit more relaxed about it, I don't think Vunipola necessarily stopped Guirado making the tackle. Interestingly Brian Moore thinks France were hard done by!

    As Speddimg kicked the ball, he raised his leg and took him out, parenting a proper kick chase.

    I hope he goes cited for it

    The TMO showed him the replay for a reason as he obviously believed it was not a try

    quite arrogant of Owens to barely look at it

    Guirado tried to tackle the ball carrier and got a load of a blocker in the shape of a Vunipola for his troubles, preventing him from tackling Cole.


    End of discussion

    No try.

    Poor call from Nig
