    France looking a bit disorganised so far, England are a bit sloppy though.

    If France win it’s a huge vote of confidence in trying youth and clearing out the old.

    Good break by Teddy and good recycling by France for the try.

    Rattez reminds me of Phillipe Bernard Salles. Skinny small and lightning fast

    Itoje's a real menace at the breakdown. Complete arsehole if you're the opposition team/fans but he gets away with murder.

    That French backrow would just be pests all day. You’d get no rest.
    Love watching Alldritt.

    The sound of Farrell tackling Vackatawa, I think he’s broken something.

    Edit - looked like a stinger

    Physicality is off the charts from both sides.

    We'll need to up ours to 2018 levels if we're to stand a chance.

    England in trouble here. Tuilagi off, Farrell looks in difficulty, France 10 points to the good.

    It's an enjoyable watch.

    10 - 0 up after 15 minutes against England and Galthié looks like someone killed his dog.
