a near full noise France at home in that atmosphere?

They'd beat pretty much anyone.


France by ten at least.

This is not cowardly under dogging btw, France are my second side and they are going to win the World Cup

Villiere is my player watch tonight. He needs to remain fit. Critical to Fra's RWC chances.

Sco don't play heads up. It's harem scarem. Sometimes it works. Others it doesn't.

French commentary has just praised WP Nel for how very mobile he is around the pitch :spin

Don't be daft. That's not heads up. It's playing one style regardless of the situation and often it gets them into trouble.

Haha, true. But it still doesn't make any sense! You can make low percentage plays and gamble far too often but it's usually still trying to play what's in front of you... Never mind :lol:

A newish thing that really annoys me is 10’s grabbing an extra 5M past the mark when kicking for touch from a penalty. Ntamak is one of the worst

Some pretty tight penalties being given there. Not the Price one.

Just before Ali went off, I was about to say his ball had so far been faster than usual. Then the wife came through and I missed what he was binned for.

Dupont took a quick tap and Price tackled him too early
