[2024 Six Nations] Scotland vs France - 10/02/24

[die_mole]

someone last week said Lucu was ben young with a better box kick and I think they should be the new French coach

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

France look so directionless.

 

[Reiser99]

France look so directionless.

Very scrappy and disjointed. Shadow of themselves from last year.

 

[Bluemoon]

France looking very shakey… the World Cup has really rocked them. Perhaps fatigue? Only Aldritt is really carrying the way I expect this team to.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

That kick was brewee-ent

 

[AlRums]

That kick was brewee-ent

Shame Finn wasn't just another foot back and it would have been another 50-22

 

[AlRums]

Good try

Incorrect

No wonder the French can't challenge the Scottish line out, none have been straight

 

[AlRums]

He's spent more time on the Scottish side of the rucks

 

[Bluemoon]

I reckon they'll give a red for that, reckless shoulder, terrible optic, contact with the head. Might be mitigation on height of the ball carrier but it's dangerous for sure.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Looked like shoulder to shoulder/upper back to me on that solitary angle they showed, so probably stay yellow - no hint of arms though so if it is shoulder to head he's in big trouble

Think it will stay as a yellow

 

[AlRums]

Du Lucu trying to get away with murder

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

French discipline has been in the toilet so far this 6N.

 

[Bluemoon]

Think it will stay as a yellow

I hope for the game it does. Flying in with the a shoulder, no arms, if the first contact is the head they'll have to apply height mitigation but it was avoidable for sure.

 

[Groundhog]

Big moment that!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Pooman: Yeah we're on top at the scrum, do that
Next scrum: France penalty

Love to see it

 

[AlRums]

Wasted

 

[Tooting Carmen]

Too close to call.

 

[BrokenWing]

Has the framework or whatever changed again then?

I thought there was no mitigation if the tackle was always illegal?
