    France do make it hard for themselves.

    May is a good player but can't warm to him. Got some serious pace but think he's not got a great rugby brain

    It is his face for me. Just not a likeable face for some reason. Petty of me really. My opinion of him has nothing to do with rugby

    I've always felt sorry for picamole he could have started in a great French team.

    Do they have a mercy rule in test rugby?

    I can see England scoring 100 points here.

    Does Huget know where a fullback is meant to be?

    France all over the shop. May is far to quick for them.

    Nice of France to offer them a training game ahead of Cardiff.

    What on earth was Huget at?

    England are very good though and deserve credit. Their decision making and execution is brilliant.

    This could be very very ugly. England aren't doing that much outside of a simple gameplan and they're still miles ahead.

    Jonny may has scored 3 tries in the corner without a hand being laid on him

    Skilful one hand pick by May on the slide there

    This is the worst French side I've ever seen. Their back three is at sea

    Do France just come together the morning of a game and spend half an hour with a whiteboard deciding on a game plan?

    Englands attack is very good. Varied, keeping France guessing.

    Penaud looks good, despite that. Chip of the old block, his father being, what the boxing community would term 'classy'.

    He is unfortunately being targeted though, perhaps huget could help him a bit more

    I don't think they even put that much effort in beforehand...

    Could be any score. That’s unfortunately championship gone for Ireland, that’s really frustrating after only two games.

    Fair play to them all the same. Looks like they could win the slam.

    This is just like what they did to us but against a worse team here.
    Serious World Cup contenders on this form.

    I think the left hand corner is pretty consistent even when penaud miraculously escapes, para can only clear 10m off his left foot

    Can see the ref calling this game off at half time.
    French pride suffering and could ship a serious injury out there. Its just dangerous now and he has a duty of care to all players.
