I didn't expect to win that. France deserved to win. England tactics weren't good and lack of flexibility isn't good. That said if Owen had made the kicks we wouldn't have had the same match.

Take no real pleasure from England winning that, the horrific win at all costs anti-rugby won't change, and players like Youngs, Farrell and Daly will have secured themselves another shitload of caps.

I was quite naive to the tactic of deliberately pulling out of a ruck to then cause the attacking team to go in off their feet.

For all of the plaudits rightly being given to France’s defensive effort, the only reason the match went to extra time was the utter ineptitude of England’s attack. If Daley could pass, or Farrell could kick, England would have been well ahead by full time.

Well they do. Saw one the last week too, much more blatant with pen awarded.

First time I’ve personally seen the ref pull up a player for trying it on, though.

I think that must be BS. All depends on government restrictions and effectiveness of vaccine. Talk of delayed 6N for 2021
