Hey French Fan, do you still believe Jalibert is a better fly-half that N'Tamack? Hey TheFrog, Do you believe Ntamack would have done better than him yesterday under those circumstances(piss poor conditions, France's game plan being -stupidly- based on pick and gos , Dupont having possibly his wors...

New Zealand won't be third for long. A dominant Eng-Fra-SA axis is looming on the horizon, no mistake. NZ will always be there or abouts, their mini slump (which would be a great period for most international teams, don't forget their emphatic win in Oz) won't last long, they just need a few games ...

At least, it reflects better the players pools of each country as they are by far the 4 countries with the biggest playing pools (particularly SA, Eng and Fra)

The Scotland captain Stuart Hogg speaks: “ For 75 mins we were probably the better team ... we slipped up for 30 seconds [after half-time] and they scored a try, so that’s frustrating ... but we didn’t turn rubbish overnight. We’ll go back to the drawing board. Lol Hogg should buy sunglasses, it mi...

:lol: :lol: Cripple Fight. Would be happy facing either at Twickers in 2 weeks time. Yeah, very mediocre game. Dupont had by far the worst game I've seen him play with the French jersey but that tells something about the level of this guy as even in this game, he did a few things that no SH is capa...

Lol

Mediocre game concluded by stupid play

France have been so bad on the restarts in this game.

That’s good from Barnes- not Chats fault the jock goes too high. I'm French and honestly, wouldn't have been choked by a yellow card What for ? Well, some players have even been red carded for similar plays (even though I don't agree with this) Yes spot on. Barnes reffed that really well. I'm not r...

Not great decision making by Dupont, playing way too much with his forwards despite the fact we're shite at pick and goes.

Scotland somehow know how to frustrate France.
Can't believe we didn't score on that play

Dupont not having a great game by his ridiculously high standards

I hope we won't see Rattez in the French team anymore when Penaud will come back

No thread?
Promised to be an exciting game between two in-form teams

That's an English masterclass of defense in all it's facets (scrambling, last ditch defense, breakdown, etc....)

Ireland would need at least 2/3 Dupont/Kolbe in their team to break that defense

England defense is quite outstanding

franch fan

Itoje is such a world class pain in the ass player.....which reflects this English team pretty well.
Great turnover again

franch fan

That last turnover by Underhill was simply world class stuff.
Him and Curry are incredible

Is there any better winger in this world than Jonny May at the moment?
What a f**king player
Scored twice and prevented a certain Irish try

Wow I just woke up and saw this result :shock: :shock: Congrats to the Argies anyway, you have been too good as a rugby nation for it to not happen at least once. ABs will bounce back, no doubt but still, they clearly look less unbeatable than before. With France shining again and perhaps preparing ...

A video of his best 2020 moments: https://youtu.be/Dn4GHxmNcDM That tackle on Heinz pfiouuu....might have been a bit high though in restrospective. Dont know if you agree with me but my favourite play in that video is that break which ends in a long pass to Kolbe while he was running. Remind me that...

It's between him, Itoje, Kolbe, PSDT and Mo'unga at the moment for me.

It will be interesting how this Fr team develops but unless they develop exponentially, it won't win the WC. The pack is decent but doesn't have the power to dominate in pressure matches and the backs are heavily reliant on Dupont. The best 3 teams at the next WC will still be the same 3 as the las...

It has to be a player from the Champions. Ergo, Itoje, all day long. He was brilliant yesterday when England were flat - didn't do anything special; just relentless accuracy and intensity, dragging the rest of the pack along with him. Dupont is decent but I'll reserve judgment until he's played beh...

Top 4 in the rankings are now South Africa, New Zealand, England, France. Looks about right and I think these 4 teams will be dominant for the next 4 years 1.NZ 2.England/SA small gap 4.France/Australia That would be my current top 5. And N'Tamack is still a pretty average fly-half. Doesn't attack ...

Dupont for me despite Itoje running him very close for that title (and clearly don't think Itoje would exchange that title with the 6N he and England won!). If injuries leave him alone (big if as he already suffered from a grave injury), I think he might well end in the Carter/BOD/Cullen/Robinson cl...
