Yeah. NZ vs France in world cups is a well predicted result.
Point taken.

Ntamack with a crucial intercept. How is Torq responding?

Look, I've been making the point for 2 years that France cannot win a RWC if they play Ntamack at 10. He is possibly the worst FH on show for any side in this 6N (yes: even worse than Russell).

Rowlands and Falatau the best players for Wales.

Stephen Jones should return some of his wages - how can you coach something that doesn't exist?

^^^^^^

Besides which, one thing right in 80 mins is hardly a rational for inclusion. Although it seems to suffice for Ntamack and Jelonch.

The French have been giving away penalties like cheap sweets but Wales’s infringements have been where it matters more. Good Welsh display overall but they needed to be tighter.

His kicking and decision making has been poor.

It is ALWAYS poor. That's my broken record point. He dines out on the odd moment of brilliance a la versus NZ. Watch his effort for Toulouse against a 3rd string Cardiff where he was comprehensively out played by a part timer.

Don’t think it was that off. Apart from the disaster of 2015, Eng have usually got it together for WC and Sa+NZ are always there. Fra run out of ideas In The face of a reasonable defence.

Enjoyed that game - Wales really should have won it - absolutely butchered an easy try scoring opportunity and they suffered not getting points on their many visits to the 22, much like England last week. France looked a bit rattled but their defence held out well in the last 20. I'd expected a higher scoring game but it was a cracker anyway.

If you'd not done a Hogg special on a clear overlap, you'd have won.

Way too much aimless kicking from both teams. Ah well, at least the only try of the match was a cracker.

Wales are always such a pain to play against. Most of the time they just sucker you into a dog fight where there's only a score in it. They don't go away.

I think France will actually take a lot from this. French teams in the past would've lost it. Their discipline would've gone to shit, they would have made mistakes, something would've happened to fuck it up, but they've come through it.

Zammit on earlier would've helped, we lost to a far better team by fewer points than expected tbh..

He should be nowhere near the squad.

You're right... France used to be useless at winning ugly... now they can do it.. I'm glad NZ are in their group, so will avoid them until the final... if they get there...

Won't happen, but even if by some jammy series of events England did squeak it, it won't matter because Ireland are going to smash us anyway.

Disappointing thing for me is that we lost it after doing ok in the set piece where I thought we’d get smashed.

Largely down to Atonio I suspect whom Bernol has given 3/10 although, laughably, Ntamack awarded 6. :wtf

I agree , Ntamack should be higher, that was a world class interception requiring judgement and perception, definitively saved France.

Tragically, that's exactly the justification you'll see on French forums and in bars across the country.
