[2024 Six Nations] France vs England - 16/03/24

[BrokenWing]

Back to the pointless hoofball then.

 

[Which Tyler]

can't see how France are gonna score points

Can only assume we're hallucinating. It's the only possible explanation.

 

[Bluemoon]

Oosh. Now that's got be up there for try of the tournament!

 

[Grizwald]

Did france change their attack coach post world cup? They look far differnt in that phase, dupont is huge obviously, but normally they would kick you into horrible positions seems to have been lacking this year. Much more ball in hand.

Yeah they did.

 

[Amiga500]

Glorious to watch that.

 

[Booboobang]

Be interesting to see if England can bring a game plan when they're not winning the collisions like they were last weekend.

100% agree. Plan is to rush defense and dominate set piece, hard to do that against a team of man mountains.

 

[Saintjay]

Ouch, lovely try. if only we had a full back dynamic in the turn and chase.

 

[g6mcg]

Looked like Slade held off slightly there when he had to take that player

 

[Crash Hamster]

Brilliant try.

Obviously should have box kicked it away from there, but they got second prize.

 

[Reiser99]

Fantastic try. England though looking back to how they were in the first 3 games unfortunately...

 

[Which Tyler]

Someone absolutely shat the bed there

Dunno about that, but I know some Frenchmen who made a whiter mess in their pants.

 

[Grizwald]

Got to say France and Italy are at a disadvantage with the likes of Gardner who doesn't attempt to communicate in their native tounges.

Someone absolutely shat the bed there

Looks like Daly shot up too far.

Daly, bad defence, leading to a try?

Say it ain't so.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Fumbling box kicks now

 

[Crash Hamster]

Daly, bad defence, leading to a try?

Say it ain't so.

Did well there though.

 

[TommiG88]

Mitchell having a bad few mins

 

[Lé Ddanno]

Has Mitchell been drinking

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Got to say France and Italy are at a disadvantage with the likes of Gardner who doesn't attempt to communicate in their native tounges.

The majority of the Italian squad don't have Italian as their first language tbf, I remember reading/hearing that Capuozzo had to speak English when he first joined up with Italy because he didn't speak Italian and they didn't speak French

 

[Vieux Talonneur]

Wrong option from Penaud there.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Feeling a bit vindicated atm over last week
