    What's that? 3 or 4 penalties conceded?

    To be fair it's awful stuff so far. We just kick it up in the air and France don't do too much with it.

    We've looked fairly bereft of ideas so far. France bringing all the aggression and line speed in defence and we've no answer so far

    He probably feels we pose more danger to Wales than France do.

    Just the Bundee one IMO and even then those get given all the time.

    Henderson is at sea in the scrum so far

    Again, has a look of him but I'm certain there's someone he's the spit of. It'll probably come to me midway through the tournament when he's been dropped and forgotten about.

    France don't look like they have any kind of spark (they haven't done in years in fairness).

    Actually is it that lad from Twilight? Not the main chap - the other lad

    Who does Mathieu Jalibert look like? I swear he's the spit of another famous person (certain it's a sportsman, think it's a soccer player) but can't think who and it's bugging me.

    Why if you have a free play with a penalty in front of the posts do you try a drop goal?!

    That was very good play from Ireland. At least we will get another 3 points from this.

    Every time Ryan gets the ball he's taking three Fenchmen on AND he gains yards and he manages his turn when going to ground. His work is amazing so far.

    Ireland looking to get France in possession in their own half here. Either expecting them to punch themselves out or concede penalties in possession.

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

    As least Ireland is very lucky to be up 6-0 so far against France considering the game has been a mixed bag of performances to date.

    I hope Ireland don't concede with France near the posts.

    Poor decision from Ryan there. Ultra calm on our try line.
