[EOYT] France vs. New Zealand 09/11/13

[Bluemoon]

This is the nature of SH rugby, can create from anywhere! France have to respond positively to this.

 

[TRF Mr Fish]

Please Nonu, stop kicking.

 

[Darwin]

Stop kicking it Nonu! Just because we scored off a kick doesn't mean you have to kick it every time you touch the ball!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Bit scrappy but I'm enjoying this so far.

I'm torn between wanting France to win (just for the upset) but not wanting NZ to be the "injured lion" at Twickenham next week!

 

[Darwin]

Well worked try for Read. Great offload by Piutau.

 

[jessta]

Wow!!!

 

[martinspoonboy1]

Amazing try!

 

[Darwin]

France hit back. Game starting to really open up.

 

[TRF Mr Fish]

Once again poor refereeing gives France the chance to score, and they finally take that chance. Peyper is very quick to penalise the All Blacks at the breakdown but he hasn't called up the French for much.

 

[Rich Taff]

Excellent example of how to finish by France there. Quality try.

 

[TRF Mr Fish]

And Crockett concedes his first penalty.

 

[Darwin]

Uh FFS Crockett. Two penalties in succession. Idiot.

Kerr Barlow might of just saved our european tour. DEFENCE. Smith would of been like a little insect trying to stop that guy. We need this guy in the team imo for this exact situation.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Tales is soo hot. ALLEZ FRANCE!!!

Edit: ****

 

[austingtir]

Oh my god the french are thick as pig ****.. LOL

 

[LittleGuy]

What an anti climax to a fantastic test.

 

[Rich Taff]

Damn, that pitch cost France there. What a lame way for the game to end though, with a hand in the scrum.

 

[admartian]

Great game. France were amazing.

FOfana, Dulon (the Fullback), Thales, and Medard were excellent for France. DANGEROUS as!

All Blacks class with finding and CREATING tries though as the French weren't giving anything to them in defence. Great game to watch.

 

[austingtir]

I think we are going to have to hope like hell we dont end up with these guys on our side of the draw come WC 2015. That was pretty impressive at the end there from the french.

That was good work but it is the only thing he has done well in about ten test matches. That just isn't good enough for me.
