    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.

    Try to France


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,221 ✭✭✭A-Train


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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,610 ✭✭✭eigrod


    That is a fantastic try


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,076 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Super try. Like the France of old.

    What a beauty

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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,861 ✭✭✭✭mfceiling


    Brexit me hole. Hon France.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,994 ✭✭✭c.p.w.g.w


    Surely itoji knocked that on... penalty?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,721 ✭✭✭✭Squidgy Black


    Some really lovely bits of play in that sequence.

    Poor tackle from Youngs. Itoje getting away with plain as day stuff again.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,220 ✭✭✭cameramonkey


    Forward inside pass in that try


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,076 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Great kickoff by England


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,129 ✭✭✭Granny15


    Would love if France win this


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,721 ✭✭✭✭Squidgy Black


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


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,994 ✭✭✭c.p.w.g.w

    It's just cheating in reality...and poor referring...come on France


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


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


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,994 ✭✭✭c.p.w.g.w


    Hit on teddy looked illegal?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,721 ✭✭✭✭Squidgy Black


    That was a filthy hit on Thomas. Has to go back and look at it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,018 ✭✭✭Bridge93


    How have England not had a yellow card yet?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


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

    Edit - looked like a stinger


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,994 ✭✭✭c.p.w.g.w


    Itoje again...how is it being missed


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,721 ✭✭✭✭Squidgy Black


    The little tip ons in contact by France are unreal, England just can't cope with it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,076 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Great kick. I'm loving this so far!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,188 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    Physicality is off the charts from both sides.

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


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 35,489 Mod ✭✭✭✭pickarooney


    Centres dropping like flies.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,221 ✭✭✭A-Train


    Good penalty 10-0 to France.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,808 ✭✭✭✭bilston


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

    It's an enjoyable watch.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,721 ✭✭✭✭Squidgy Black


    Itoje completely sealing that ruck lying on top of it

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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,076 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Very good defence by France.

    That was particularly egregious as well. Just slapped the ball out of his hand

    Grief this was unexpected


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,221 ✭✭✭A-Train


    Great try. I wonder will be allowed?

    Pleasantly surprised here... G'wan France!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,076 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Magic! But they'll have to check it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,188 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    England aren't switched on at all. They stopped playing after that kick.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    Owens is a divil for coaching the players mid game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,808 ✭✭✭✭bilston


    Not sure this will.count, but why did England just stop playing.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,721 ✭✭✭✭Squidgy Black


    Fair play to Owens for allowing that to play on even if it will get overturned by the TMO.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,415 ✭✭✭Dave_The_Sheep


    Yeah, that's not going to count.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,808 ✭✭✭✭bilston


    Comes off blue.


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 51,688 Mod ✭✭✭✭Stheno


    Try allowed


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,384 ✭✭✭Panda Killa


    That's standing I'd say


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,808 ✭✭✭✭bilston


    The TMO is wrong, it does come off the blue hand!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,221 ✭✭✭A-Train


    That’s a try ball off Lawes arm.

    France 17-0


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,721 ✭✭✭✭Squidgy Black


    That is amazing. Right call or not, I think every fan from the other 5 Nations is absolutely delighted.

    I think so too. Would be bulling if that stood against Ireland. England players gave up as well which was crazy

    I don't think so.
