[QUOTE="The Jones Boy, post: 834877, member: 70721"] The ref made a few little mistakes but England were certainly given more time to clear their rucks and more leeway when there was a chance to give it. In return France were punished for small indiscretions to a petty level and it was commented on by the English commentating panel. When that happens then you know one team is getting caned. Englands scrum was pushed around most of the game but the free kick and penalty count won't tell you that. England were more disciplined to be fair and France were a little loose at times but that happens when you are more robust and France outplayed England at the breakdown more often than the ref's whistle will tell you. However they missed a long-ish kick from out front that went narrowly wide and that meant they lost. Eddie is on a roll and that was a get out of jail card. Judged to perfection. Hats off to Daly and Teo [/QUOTE]
