[2020 Six Nations] France vs England (02/02/20)

[Not Eddie Jones]

Our record comeback is 12 points. Looks we're cooked.

 

[Bluemoon]

Johnny May, what were you doing in that play. Never stop playing man!

 

[AlRums]

Can someone tell me does it actually hit Lawes?

Yes

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Now I see it missed the other angle

 

[TheOvalBall]

Yipeee.....ping pong

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Is it 2007 again?

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

The ball went back of blue hand, forward off blue chest, then forward again off of lawes (backwards towards lawes goal line).

so never forward off of French arm or shoulder.

 

[Cruz_del_Sur]

I disagree with the rationale behind the call but agree with the outcome.

The TMO said the ball didnt touch blue's hands. I think it did, but it went backwards and then bounced on white, after which the other blue gathered the ball.

 

[TheOvalBall]

I remember in studio during the World Cup former French player scott spedding said French coaching is a dictatorship. I wonder if it will be the same with Galthie.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Sack Eddie, Lawes, Furbank, Youngs, Ford, Farrell, Curry, May now or we will not win the RWC IMO

Final contact, I think we can agree, was white

yes, but makes the man offside in front?

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Would be a good game for Genge this.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

French number 7 wasn't onside once in that defensive set

 

[TheOvalBall]

Great kick

 

[WarriorKelv]

Eddie Jones's arrogance is a dangerous thing.

 

[Vieux Talonneur]

That is possibly the best kick I've ever seen. Unbelievable.

 

[Leinster Fan]

Great kick.

 

[TommiG88]

Yep, embarrassing

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

No cause if opposition touches ball but doesn't control it everyone on the other side is onside, as in a chargedown.
