[2022 Six Nations] Wales vs France (11/03/22)

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Are the Welsh even that optmisitic?

I will believe this French team have the consistency for a slam when I see it, so I'm being stubborn more than optimistic. I do think Wales have an excellent 9-15 though, plenty good enough to win this if their pack can put in a shift.

 

[AlRums]

I hope for Wales sake they don't give away tries like their U20's counterparts

 

[duncanb]

Looking forward to this tonight with a beer or three.
Hoping as a neutral for a great game.
French worthy favourites, sneeky feeling Wales may well front up and cause a shock.

I see the WRU have ****** the ticket pricing? Might not be a sellout

There's load of tickets left.
It's a bit of a joke, Friday evening kick off so a pain of the ass to get to and then almost impossible to get home. For example there would only be a single train after the game I could get before they stop.
Add to the fact tickets were raised about £15 over what they were last year, it was a struggle to get tickets less that £70.

God that's shite. I love the Friday night fixture but it's not really fair that only Wales have to take it if the union and public transport services can't make it accessible.

 

[Craigo]

Got a feeling Wales will do it. Simply to keep the competition wide open.

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Ah, never realised it was tonight. In a bit of a quandary as it clashes with Gardeners World and Crufts.

Brits really know how to let their hair down on a Friday night.

Mrs duncanb has said she will not watch Crufts on our smaller TV.
So it's off to my Rugby club 5 min stroll.
Bonus of 5 pint jug for 12 of my hard earned quids.
Amstel, John Smiths, Thatchers or Guinness.
TV is shite but good atmosphere.
But Burgers for a fiver

Now that's how the rugby should be watched to be fair, unfortunately mines not walkable so can't do that, Enjoy!

I know Friday night games can be a logistical nightmare, but as an armchair fan I quite like them. Definitely better than a Sunday afternoon.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

The crowd definitely sound like they've been sampling the low alcohol beer on tap at the MilStad

 

[Reiser99]

Btw, found this today. It amused me.

My match was cancelled so FNL is ago. No booze on account of an early start and plans to make a show of myself tomorrow.

 

[General Melchett]

Call me daft but I miss Valley Commando's delusion on days like today.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Must be weird for Welsh fans having most the neutral support in this fixture!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

How was that Wales player allowed to get back up and back in the line?!

Sparked out, stands up and looks like a 4am drunk, medics should've been on in a flash

 

[Vieux Talonneur]

Glorious

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Williams must be off, very wobbly.

There we go, Jiffy has said numbers. 9 mins 30 seconds for those of you playing Jiffy bingo.
