England XV vs France XV - 21/06/25

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Really poor tactics in this game so far.

Willis showing no reasons not to start him, Earl looked underpowered and out of place at 8 last night.

cos hes not a 8, only plays 8 for england whilst borthwick refused to pick willis.

hes a 6 and plays like a 6, maybe a 12 if **** hits the fan

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Love how slade takes about 2m in steps while taking the kick.

 

[Reiser99]

If that's a try it's terrible by France.

 

[Abraxaz]

surely that was knock on by england?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Carpenter with two of the oddest tries

Edit: ok, one

 

[Reiser99]

Yeah knock on. The ball is not going back that quickly from Fickou without Slade.

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Surely that’s a knock on by Slade?

 

[Abraxaz]

who'd want to be an official.

we need some high speed cameras just tracking the ball

 

[Crash Hamster]

Looked pretty blatant, yet took a long time to give...

 

[Ddanno]

It's scab nose prick Borthwick

It's like we've gone back to 2019 RWC

 

[Abraxaz]

We really are missing a big 12 to tie up defenders in the mid field.
trying to go wide without making the space for it.

 

[Scotty]

Really not enjoying the commentators today.

 

[Reiser99]

Fantastic kick by beard.

He isn’t a 6. Has he ever even played there?

 

[Reiser99]

That was poor defence.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Who's Dombrandt on for? Willis?

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Dombrandt comes on, "supports" beard, actually didn't support him and left a gaping hole for the French to run through

 

[Ddanno]

Really not enjoying the commentators today.

Yeah they're rank amateur

 

[Abraxaz]

Really not enjoying the commentators today.

Yeah they're rank amateur

Plenty of quality commentators available and we get this.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Hmmmm, that feels harsh

It's a dynamic/moving ruck due to the first clear out
At worst it's penalty only, but I'd play on

 

[Dutchgeo88]

These TMOs are ruining the game, what a joke

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Rucks are so messy, both teams coming in from every angle.

Not sure I agree that’s a yellow, George shouldn’t be in the position he was.

 

[Quel Carreleur]

21?

 

[Crash Hamster]

Not a huge amount wrong with that...

 

[Reiser99]

I think penalty only.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Wtf Dombrandt

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Dombrandt butter fingers continues...

 

[BrokenWing]

"Too much spice on the pass"???

Eff off.... EFF OFF

 

[Reiser99]

**** me Dombrandt. Are you ever gonna catch a ball for England?
