Yeah, big if. 

 

Still, let's see if they can keep matching the French score for score instead.

I don't think England have been defensively horrific and I don't think France as a team have really clicked yet. 

 

But both tries were just fantastic bits of stand out quality. 

 

Problem is they're capable of that constantly. 

 

[Finnegan]

France really uncharacteristically weak. You don't normally win games of rugby if you can't be dominant in the contact area. 

 

England just so much stronger than France atm. As entertaining as France can be, what normally makes them dangerous is their combination of skill and power. The later is completely absent this half. 

 

England have just manhandled them. 

 

[leicsmac]

Well, not sure about that reffing decision at all. 

[Vacamion]

 

I think England have suffered from a fair few unfavourable decisions in this championship (particularly against Scotland), a lot of which were baffling, and that desicion was another one.

 

Ah well...

And the thing is that France would still likely win if it was 15 v 15 rather than 14 v 16 anyway.

That one decision has pretty much decided the game, it would seem. 

[RowlattsFox]

Not easy at all but 3 missed conversions could be costly. The drop goal was class though. 

 

It's been really entertaining this. 

[leicsmac]

It would be hilarious here if Pollock were to come on, score and then do something to massively bait the home fans.

[leicsmac]

End to end stuff. 

[Finnegan]

Shame the football was ****ing dreadful today because the rugby has been fantastic.

Can’t have Ireland winning the six nations.  Makes me feel ill.

60 minutes without any real incident, they bring Pollock on, the handbags start

I should hate the guy but I quite like his shit housery

[leicsmac]

Glad Pollock is on to stir things up tbh, France need to be reminded that the ref is the only reason they're still in this.

If France don’t win this game they will see this 6 Nations as a massive failure. They probably already do.

that was my first comment on this game and this will be my last

You sort of have a point.

 

France on fire are a joy to watch, their handling is sensational.

 

Their defence in some of these matches has been poor though and at the moment, as much as I hate to say it, Saffers destroy France.

What's the highest amount of points ever in a 6N game?

Well, Pollock didn't score but...

[RowlattsFox]

Pollock is great at being near everything but not actually doing anything 

[Nalis]

Right England, please dont fvckin kick it back to them 

[Nalis]

What even is this game anymore?
