Are we seriously not going to look for a knock on there?
Yeah, thought there were 3 things to take a look at there
They're missing loads, but it's for both sides, so it's just shit for everyone.
Oh yeah, don’t disagree. It’s being played at some pace mind you

It's all panning out more or less as expected so far, although I expected France to be a couple more points ahead.

The 2 key ones both went in Eng's favour. 20 mins at least down to 14.

And I am going to harp on about it but Ntamack butchered a 2 man overlap and he owes Cros his match wages for saving his arse.
That’s a tough call on Ntamack I think. There weren’t many options for him before he got nailed.

Marchant having a good game for England.
He is playing well but the French are giving a lesson in the importance of a balanced centre pairing. They work so well together.
yep. Slade is an outside centre for Exeter.

Peyper can’t keep up, so he’s given up and irs basically a free for all for both sides.

Can we just all agree that Peyper quite appropriately to the location has gone for the laissez-faire approach to reffing?
French so much the better team - England are either kicking the ball away, or not protecting it on the odd occasion when they do try to carry it.
Eddie Jones is stealing a living.

France are much much better and ought to win from here at a counter. Their second try should have been called back.

This Genge standing deep and running it back keeps making me giggle. It’s not U12’s where you try and give the big player the ball because no one wants to tackle him

He'll point to the table, say "we lost to the better team" and use it as an excuse to get Farrell back in as soon as humanly possible.

Very interested to see how this second half pans out. Really hope France can put it together for 20 minutes. Let's see what they can do.

Don't.
Just. Don't.
Peyper and his TMO will be looking for any reason to find the red card. I notice how the English commentary team entirely ignored the incident with Nowell.

Torque is blinded by hate when it comes to Ntamack. He does the right thing (passing would only have resulted in the English defense drifting) and it is a good piece of defending from England to deny him an opportunity to pass once he in.

Bollox. Look at the aerial view. That close to the line there was no drift defence. Tackler was the last defender. Ntamack should take lessons from Villiere on how to draw and pass. It was an abysmal piece of greed or lack of awareness by Ntamack.
