[2024 Six Nations] France vs England - 16/03/24

[McTallshort]

16-3 down but loving this game

 

[BrokenWing]

England warned about no arms tackle…

 

[Which Tyler]

Penaud just beat more defenders than England have all game

Thankfully, he was running East to West, not South to North

 

[Grizwald]

Isnt every team playing the blitz defence these days? What other defensive system is there? The drift defence went out of fashion about 5 years ago

Drift I suppose.

 

[BrokenWing]

18 tackles missed….

In that one run?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

18 tackles missed….

It's fine, in another years time we'll have a great defence - just ignore everything before then

 

[AlRums]

England warned about no arms tackle…

But farrells not playing

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Come on... if you are going to rush you need to actualy make the tackle.

My signature move back when I played league
Get off the line quick but then don't do much else

 

[Duck a l'Orange]

FFS someone level Penaud

Wish granted.

 

[Jimbo]

Got to love Smiths attitude there.

 

[BrokenWing]

Wish granted.

I mean properly fold him up like an old map.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

18 tackles missed….

Blitz defence v a French coutnerattack is never going to be pretty

 

[Booboobang]

Seeing France today makes you wonder why they were so bad on week one

Probably the change in attack coach with an obviously differnt philosophy.

 

[AngloScotsHybrid]

Drift I suppose.

Name a team that is playing drift at the moment.
I find it bizarre that England are apparently implementing a new defence system when its the one everyone in the world is playing.

 

[Duck a l'Orange]

Should be a yellow card if these keep coming.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Did not deserve that but damnnn

 

[TommiG88]

Yay try

 

[Jimbo]

What does I need your discipline mean, your on a warning next ones a warning, just arbitrarily saying something, ffs why be so ambiguous.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

This makes things interesting.

 

[Booboobang]

Lovely line.
