You might wanna check the laws of the game. They say nothing about controlled grounding. He was touching the ball and exerted downward pressure when the ball touched the in-goal. That's a try.
I'm far from convinced by that he's lost control on 4 out of 5 digits and the last digit I'm not convinced he kept contact right until grounding. For decision like that you have to be certain the grounding was clean.
Peyper realised, in the warmup, that he left his cards in the hotel room and he's trying his best not to let his boss cotton on to the fact.

We'll remain that way in 5 weeks too #arrogance
Takes a good few foreigners to bring back that French flair we all know and love
Weakest burn of the weekend goes to.......
Mmmm I'm really not ****ting on your performance or trying to, because it's nice to see France back playing attacking rugby, but we had a horrible day at the office last day and were away from home. If we in any way play to potential we should win. Scots absolutely deserved to win against us, but you'd have to think we won't be letting many more players stroll through our line outs for tries. Scotlnd have some good players, especially in the backrow, ten and fullback but they still have an awful scrum, a fairly poor lineout, and an approach to the breakdown which has been at best at the edge of the law, and at worst blatantly illegal for the past two weeks, which I imagine most refs will pick up on before long.
I know you really don't like Ireland, but beaten handily? Pull the other one would you?
