It's highway robbery in a way .

that french team needs to work on their defence and lineout.

a bit of luck to restart building for us.

hard luck Scotland that was a dreadful game by France.

Lucu needs to be put away he is not threatening anything.

So much kicking to nothing

Scotland 19 - France 22
England 22 - Wales 10

Abolished in 1981.

France is very conservative at heart despite its image as a forward thinking country.

The Italian 14 looks quality - big guy too. We missed about 25% of our tackles

You useless feckers could not do that against the French.

Poor second half but the job is done.

The coms here have mentioned how playing in the Super 6 has improved the Scottish players - Super 6 is 6 teams of semi- pros who are on around £3000 per year. They also mentioned how many of the French side play in the Top 14 It is what it is, but it's not a like for like comparison. A number in D2...

Apparently the Scottish hooker is seriously injured.

If there was one frenchman to remember Robert Badinter has passed away. He was the one to get rid of the death penalty https://www.lemonde.fr/disparitions/article/2024/02/09/robert-badinter-est-mort_6215627_3382.html?lmd_medium=al&lmd_campaign=envoye-par-appli&lmd_creation=ios&lmd_sourc...

“Strong distinctive odour coming from the colon” I often get that myself when I eat the wrong things. add enough mustard oignons or wine and you'll be fine Scotland by 6 what sort of wine, or even would you advocate champagne going into an andouillette? can't call this game, can France be as bad ag...

Looks like it fixed the tory car crash thread for me.

Never had andouillette so googled it. From wiki: Andouillette is a French coarse-grained sausage made from the intestine of pork, pepper, wine, onions, and seasonings. Andouillettes are generally made from the large intestine and are 7–10 cm in diameter. True andouillettes are rarely seen outside F...

One of the kids in my mini-rugby clubs died in a freak accident this week. I was chatting with the dad and watching his son and mine train together on Saturday morning. Then on Monday evening he was his by a car outside their house and died on the way to the hospital. 5 years old ffs. The happiest ...

Just came in here to protest at this scandalous comparison between the food of the gods and a length of badly/barely cleaned shit pipe.

Same ingredients different prep (I enjoy both).

How about we call a poach someone who was not born in country or go through school of country. 18 years old, were they in the country they are now playing in. So every Northern Irish player who plays for Ireland is a poach as Northern Ireland is part of a different country to Ireland. And no Welsh,...

ALWAYS buy tickets in advance for attractions in Europe in August! Queues will be insane and having timed entry tickets will save you hours. Showing up on the day, you probably won't even get in.
totally
Suspect it will be mentaler as in early August Paris has the Olympics.

Gavin is a huge prospect and comes along at just the right time to take over from Aki. Some good stuff hoping the french get to See Hugo Reus and Marko Gazzoti back during the 6 nations (they got sent back to their clubs due to a lot of injuries in their squad). Posolo Tuilagi is still elligible fo...

That's part of the weakness 30 + clubs and a week to prep.

The Jiff has made all the difference with clubs now taking more risks with an upcoming kid rather than a tired old ex international.

31 - 37 FT Fecking epic game, down in Aix Gleeson, Murphy, Gavin were all outstanding. The French were beasts too, & that winger is electric, & their starting SH was so much better than Lucu last night Gavin is a huge prospect and comes along at just the right time to take over from Aki. So...

Really annoyed at that result ...

Ah well there is always the world cup

Played well in patches but had no answer to the maul.

This is going to be entertaining to watch the cripple fight below Ireland cruising to a Slam.

Paula Radcliff/ Yohan Deniz syndrome for Scotland ?

That was a rare display of ineptitude .

well done My green brethren.

France 25 - 19 Ireland
Italy 24 - 18 England
Wales 16 - 21 Scotland
