We're about 3 points better, very disappointing so far.

If Stander is going to go no nowhere and then get easily stripped like that then why is he on the pitch?

Whut?

Always get the impression Brian Moore hates Ireland/Irish people more than anything in life.

Don't think I'd agree with that. He does hate the French with a passion though.

Agreed. But I cant help but feel the French will be more pleased with the game so far than we will, given the respective expectations on both sides.

Surprised TMO didn’t tell him to take another look. No attempt at using his arms on Murray there

Murray took one for the team there- he saw him coming- terrible discipline from the French lad

That was a brainless penalty to give away. This game reminds me of Paris 2 years ago. Hopefully we can put France away before the last 20.
