No. I'm a fan of his but he's been sh*te along with everyone associated with Racing this season. Also, Jauneau (ASM) is actually a better player.
Thanks
The Lancaster effect along with playing with Farrell..........

The ITV commentators are very very pro Ireland.

Do we definitely have to have Prendergast as Lions 10?

Prendergast's coming of age this match.

I think I'm right in saying that pulls Penaud level with Blanco on France's all time try-scorer list, with 37 fewer caps.

Are the broadcasters going to treat us to images of Irish fans who paid €1,000 a ticket leaving early

France have shown a few times that you can drive an opponent back without going in at chin height

He’s had a couple of shitty moments but hasn’t had a chance to do much tbf as the much vaunted Irish forwards have been well beaten. I wish the press wouldn’t hype up young players so much.

I don't think he has done too much wrong. Bit too similar to his predecessor in style maybe.

He doesn't have to release you cheating c*nt Gardner. He'd won the ball.

Now f**k off back to Aus.

Shouting turn over is good, France won the ball and then he’s penalising him for not giving the ball back to Ireland? I’m confused.

Sympathy call at the end for the Aussie wonder whistle. Still, satisfying result

He said the French player who turned it over had gone off his feet. If that was the case then the Irish players have to release the ball.

Or so I thought

Well done France, deserved the win.

Plenty for Ireland to learn from, which should encourage some thoughts about developing our game. Obviously you'd rather win, but sometimes it needs a loss to move things on.

Good learning opportunity for Prendergast, he'll improve from this.
Keenan looking great in a losing team 👍

7/1 for the win! Ironic that would be considered anti-rugby (and rightly so if it's accompanied by boring anti-rugby style of play (looking at you Ireland/SA)), but France delivered some pretty exciting play today.

No luck of the Irish for a change. Fun to watch.

I've just seen what happened to Dupont. A Welsh player got a 20 minute red for practically the exact same thing last night against Scotland U20.

Rugby doesn't do itself any favours with the lack of consistency.

Gardner was a disgrace. Bad enough the all round cheating but when you allow player safety to be endangered.....

Essentially, he waved Ire on to indulge in cheap thuggery the entire match.
