[2015 Six Nations] France vs Wales (Round 3)

[Irishkid]

There starting to fizzle but nothing more. Wales would be useless without Halfpenny France are going to win this.

Damn that was a poor game.

(shaking my head)

 

[LiRFCMatt]

Damn that was a poor game.

Yeah, very disappointing from both teams. Always hoped for the game to open up a bit, and I think it might have been France's fault, why are they not keeping ball in hand? Credit to Wales, they were the better side, but really not what I was hoping for.

 

[TommiG88]

Wales didn't need to do much to win. France are a shambles, no direction, no nothing to be honest.

 

[Ossau]

Poor game indeed!
France have only scored 2 tries in this 6 Nations!!!

 

[Tony Manx]

France went reasonably well but they made so many mistakes and gave away so many penalties that there was no way they could win but what was PSA doing changing the team almost completely after just 51 minutes when they had dominated the 10 minutes after half time? Incroyable......one can only think that Parra was injured because he was Le Petit General and had he been kicking, France would have led at half time.

If that is all Wales have got, and I have no reason to believe there is anything else, then they have no chance in the RWC!

Not a good day for NH international rugby today....let us hope that there is a half decent game tomorrow no matter who wins!

 

[gaston le gaff]

how anyone can say Wales were part of a poor game i just do not understand, they came to France to do a job on France and they did exactly that no more no less and came away with a win....... So well done Wales they stuck to there game plan and did everything needed to get the penalties and win the game.
France what can you say no direction a Lopez who kicks out of hand i think 6 times every time loosing the ball.PSA loses his job after the WC can someone p^lease please inform me the day after the WC is over and just maybe France could come back to something a little more honourable, at least we have proper rugby next week and then maybe watch Italia do another job on France.

 

[wertas]

Did I hear correctly that Parra was named MoM? Seriously? And was he injured and replaced?

 

[goodNumber10]

That was awful.... I fell asleep (not joking).

 

[Jaguares]

The worst 6N in years

 

[Irishkid]

Wales and France are both incredibly poor sides especially France. Neither team are capable of attacking. France just don't know what there doing one minute they were offloading well then just kicking away another. Wales just don't pass the ball past Roberts in open play. And after 3 phases they just stop.

 

[Rich Taff]

Having a weapon like 1/2p the gameplan seemed to be almost completely designed to draw penalties from the opposition and let him go to work with the boot.
I don't think it's any surprise that we play a far more expansive game when he's injured.
It's effective, but it's not pretty.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

The worst 6N in years

Not from an English perspective

Today has seen 2 extremely uninspiring games. I hope tommorow will be much better.

 

[goodNumber10]

i think it's difficult 6Nations, teams are at the end of their world cup cycle, defences are better and the range in performance is much closer and everyone is depserate for wins to flag themselves up as real contenders.

was never going to be a vintage year.

plus Reffing has been..... an issue.

 

[TommiG88]

GN10, I agree however I think the refereeing today has been quite good in general.

Come on, Wales beat France away by the same margin as Ireland did in Dublin, and both matches were a complete snoozefest.

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

Oh dear lord. This match was highly depressing. If this French team had Lancaster & Farrell for coaches they would be a top 3 side. They played the only rugby really worth watching (besides the top skill for Biggars try) and it's depressing to see them lose ANOTHER game.

Except Wales managed to score a try. Don't let actual events remove the blinkers though @Irishkid.
