[QUOTE="Big Ewis, post: 625353, member: 57076"] Absolutely, no question. England's defense was fierce as fk. The whole game, but the last 5-10min especially in deed. But the Welsh defense if you watched the WAL-FRA game, 'blitz' defense as some call it moving up very fast, was pretty good too. And sure France struggled to build good movements consistently, but they also had quality moments and Wales still halted them. The one thing though is that France have played very superficially on attack, I mean specifically with no depth, as in the passer feeds the recipient on a very lateral line so our impacts are almost with no momentum each time. England have given good depth to their movements on attack for strong impacts to break the tackles. If we could just implement that a bit more, all of a sudden Bastareaud would be meaningful to our attack...but I guess that's too much for the coaching staff to grasp. [/QUOTE]
