[PCPhil]

Ahhh, it’s great to know that however one eyed we all accuse each other of being. There is nothing like a French crowd.

[GogLais]

Disappointing to hear the crowd booing the kicker, and ruining the respect inherent in the sport, the inbred chav troglodytes.

I think it’s even spread to Twickers.

Yeah, lots of Welsh expats in London...

I did think the braying had a lyrical lilt to it.

[Marylandolorian]

Fucking Barnes again and again

[Enzedder]

Get the fecking props out of the first receiver position. FFS Whitelock - talk to your players and get them thinking

[Lemoentjie]

So is there agreement that this is a poor side or a poorly coached side?

Bit of both. I remember being told I was wrong by AC for saying the All Black talent pool is getting less full...

[Tichtheid]

La Belle France

[petej]

Fucking Barnes again and again

I don't think this can be blamed on Barnes.

[Slick]

J’adore la France

[convoluted]

This is a shellacking.
How poor were the Irish that they could only beat us by a few.

[PCPhil]

Looking a bit grim for Fiji.

[Gumboot]

ABs look shot. There's no coming back from here.

[Ymx]

This is getting embarrassing

[Slick]

La Belle France

Haha, touché

It is also the best french side for along time.

[Thor Sedan]

Right....what the actual f**k is going on with the NZ handling errors. This is ridiculous.

I don't mind getting beat by a better team. But this is basics being forgotten. The AB's are becoming unwatchable.

[Sandstorm]

Score please lads

[Lobby]

Score please lads

24 - 6, 3 tries to none.

[petej]

Score please lads

24-6

[fishfoodie]

24 - 6 with 5min to go to HT

[JM2K6]

Big Badhands Brodie Retallick

[Ymx]

What has Foster done to our much vaunted handling ??

[Paddington Bear]

Can’t say it’s very often i’ve said ‘this game needs an All Blacks try’

[Gumboot]

So many errors and bad decisions...

On the bright side, at least the game's not at 4am.

[OomStruisbaai]

Excellent first half for France. Look like world champs

[Flockwitt]

Just not happening for the ABs today. You can see they're tired. And France playing well.

[Thor Sedan]

Please rugby gods.....let the French put 50 on us so the AB's are forced to get rid of Foster.




Please.

Please.

Sadly I’m thinking the same thing.

[sockwithaticket]

France are seriously on one tonight and, most importantly, they've got points to back up their on field dominance.

It's a joy to see.

[Flockwitt]

I'm no Foster fan, but it's not him dropping the ball out there.

[SaintK]

Yep
Fingers crossed they stay the course

[fishfoodie]

In the Ireland Game, the stats said everything about the difference; but in this one there's nothing there; & that just says the ABs are playing badly; & the French are capitalizing on their mistakes

[Thor Sedan]

I'm no Foster fan, but it's not him dropping the ball out there.

Perhaps....but this trend of dropping the ball and losing it in contact seems to have become more common during his tenure.....why?

[Slick]

Score please lads

Don’t worry, you’re not missing much

[Sards]

It's been a fantastic weekend for the NH. Some big scalps. I dare say the NH is a threat

[JM2K6]

Despite being "on it" at the start of this half, NZ have been ragdolled in contact a few times already.

[Sandstorm]

Score please lads

Don’t worry, you’re not missing much

The brunette here has a job in advertising that she hates, but has gone home for Christmas. She dropped her luggage and a handsome guy helped her pick it up. I think there’s chemistry there…..

[Slick]

NZ should really have kicked that goal

[sockwithaticket]

Barnes getting fixed by Baille

If they do I think it could be the kind of victory to really kick them on. Despite all their promise they've still been too inconsistent in the 6N, losing games they should win.

I want France to be a terrifying prospect, it'll force the rest of us to up our games and it'll be good for the world cup to have them go deep into the knock outs. 2007 was a great tournament, imagine how good it would be if France make the semis?
