    I always find it interesting how much faster referees will call a turnover when there is penalty advantage against the team winning the turnover.

    And he was second man in, should have been another pen

    France have conceded 2 or 3 pens at the scrum. Interesting as the Welsh scrum isn't known for being a weapon.

    France have been as dreadful this half as they were good in the first half. Weird game

    Williams looks to be in serious pain there with his shoulder.

    Picamoles hit on Williams was surely worthy of a second look?

    Fair enough but what's that got to do with place kicks..

    I was making more of a comment as to shocking standard of place kicking

    This game is ridiculous. It's like they all decided to start drinking at half-time.

    They started 40 minutes late in my educated opinion.

    Not sure either team wants to actually win this. So many stupid errors

    in the interests of entertainment, i was hoping for more of a contest, but sadly there's only 1 side in it and i see no way back for the Welsh.
    Happy so far? :D

    That Lambey fella is some beast.
