Great spirit from England but you have to say, France have blown both pieds off with their own shotgun

France should have been out of sight half an hour ago but they've contrived to lose it

French look massive. Have England just made them runaround too much?

The lineout looks a bit wobbly too.

Some very good French tries though.

They've made so many simple errors, over-running the ball carrier on at least two occasions with the line just there in front of them. Then the winger taking the wrong option in butchering a four on one

I had to turn the sound off when the English coms started laughing at 19 year old players making mistakes

Trouble is giving a single penalty almost always results in a try if the opposition mauls it .

Enjoyed that performance from England there.

Lots of talent and experience on that French team, but they were able to put them under pressure.

Shocking indictment of the quality of top14 and proD2 rugby imo

Just finished as I had to pause and step away for a bit. Very, very good second half performance from England. At times in the first it looked like we were fortunate to keep haning in there, but having done so we really took it to the Froglets.

Good plan, or half-time talk, Mr Mapletoft.

Clever stuff from Inger-land.

The French forwards are strong as fuck though. The French scrum was awesome.

I worry about the other five nations for the next decade.
