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

I think it’s even spread to Twickers.

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

Looking a bit grim for Fiji.

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.

So many errors and bad decisions...

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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…..

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?
