[2022 Six Nations] France vs England (19/03/22)

[Ragey Erasmus]

He'll be knackered.
And they're already reading it - surely it should be Simmonds' job, with added pace?

Another one of Jones' stupid experiments

 

[TRF_Olyy]

@Le Frére Alpha hearing Ben Kaiser say England are being hard done by at the scrum

 

[Reiser99]

Good, so not just me who thinks it's stupid.

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

Yeah having your prop be your kick returner just seems like a good way to get demolished on scrums.

France looks like they have some lineup tricks.

Again the high ball is England's best attacking weapon but at some point you have to win on the ground.

 

[Umaga's Witness]

Looking ominous for England

 

[General Melchett]

Alldritt is just a beast. Can't believe he chose France over Scotland

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Yeah if we'd like to actually get to the rucks, that would be great...

France tearing us apart with ease and the poor execution is all that's saving us.

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

So win the turnover, get advantage, get a line break, and still get the penalty.

This has to be a directive from WR.

Itoje giving away 2 dumb pens

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Ok this better be good because I've just stopped watching the fiji drua reply and that was fun watching

England are quite similar to the Drua actually. If you take away the dynamism, unpredictably and fluid back play.

Genge is going to be running on empty by 30mins.

 

[Reiser99]

So Peyper is not going to take any hint of sealing off. Hopefully he's consistent, but England need to take note and adapt already.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

****. It was coming.

IDK Genge does a similar role with Leicester and he plays full 80.

He shouldn't be gassed till at least 60

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Great tackle by Furbank our best FB………….

 

[Lé Ddanno]

Wow. We're appalling. Who'd have thought that backs selection would end up looking gash though. Weird.

 

[Umaga's Witness]

If these were two teams I'd never seen play before and never heard of, I'd have to predict after this start that france is going to win by 50

 

[Vieux Talonneur]

Looking ominous for England

Very….

 

[BPM]

Surely a knock on from Dupont in there?

Changing our fullback was such a good idea.
