[QUOTE="Big Ewis, post: 627942, member: 57076"] There's a point I left out. Parra is almost certainly the key personnel we'll be missing the most. Not just for his quality in-game, but for his boot come penalty/conversion time. If we are to win this tournament, it'll be on pts diff. And we can't just score a ton of tries from now in MF til Paris while hosting Ireland; we'll need to count on the boot and collecting as many little pts as we can, every conversion, and a vast majority of penalties. Discipline and defense will be key as well as scoring a lot but conceding as much just won't cut it. We'll absolutely need a fine margin of victory here if we are to have a chance at all. We spoiled our 20-pt win against Italy with a 21-point loss in Cardiff, what a disastrous waste... As unlikely as it seems here, France needs to rack up about a 20pts difference tonight in Edinburgh.
