Scotland v France match thread

[charltom]

I do wish Andrew Cotter would stop praising the standard of Wayne Barnes's French. It's great that he bothers using a French word here and there, but his French as heard during matches is sh1te.

[Slick]

This is back to WC shiteness

[ScarfaceClaw]

Christ the handling is dire.

[ASMO]

Could that have been any more forwards? Also has the Saffer wing actually touched the ball in open play? Considering he is such a weapon, why are they not using him?

[Tichtheid]

Barnes should open both eyes, he’s missing a decent game

[Torquemada 1420]

F**k off Jalibert

[Blackmac]

Surely Watson was entitled to grab the ball in that maul.

[Slick]

Why was Barnes screaming let go on the line when the ball was in the air

[Tichtheid]

Vaka butchered a certain try

[ASMO]

France butchering chances here

[Torquemada 1420]

2 more f**k ups by Jalibert. Runs sideways to compress the space then gets involved in a maul and loses the ball. GET HIM OFF

[TheNatalShark]

Surely Watson was entitled to grab the ball in that maul.

If the one I'm thinking of, he would have had to change his bind to do so, although I felt he already did (though by the man he was bound to going well ahead whilst he stayed put)

Forwards getting bullied in the set piece

[Blackmac]

What is Barnes seeing at the maul. Scottish forwards clearly onside getting told to get out of it.

[TheNatalShark]

Clear kick in the ruck? No way was that out

[Slick]

They kicked it out of the ruck ffs

[Theflier]

Jailbaits teammates aren't impressed

[tcc_dc]

They kicked it out of the ruck ffs

yep...Scotland seemed to have a little momentum there.

[Blackmac]

Barnes is just making shit up now.

[Torquemada 1420]

This really is sh*t now. Neither side wants the ball.

[ASMO]

Scotland even less creative than England, and thats saying something

[TheNatalShark]

French front row are scumbags. Pushing once collapsed

[Blackmac]

Thats a joke

Second view it wasn't

[Lemoentjie]

That is some nose

[Torquemada 1420]

Jeez. Galthie's pet nobody, Vincent on now.

[Blackmac]

Once again the French given 3 or 4 seconds to get the knee to ground

[Torquemada 1420]

Not sure Sweatie is allowed to push Fickou from behind.

A draw is all these 2 sides merit.

[Lemoentjie]

Awful discipline from Scotland

[TheNatalShark]

Last chance saloon to snatch a draw

[Torquemada 1420]

Pitiful. More ambition in a corpse.

[ASMO]

Scotland has presented absolutely zero threat in this game, its been dire.

[Blackmac]

Scotland has presented absolutely zero threat in this game, its been dire.

Townsend has gone from one Plan A to another type of Plan A. Clearly unable to coach a balanced side.

[Torquemada 1420]

JHC. Eng are light years ahead of any of the NH sides at present.

This has been a competition for incompetence by both sides.

[ASMO]

Hilarious.....that was an awful game to watch...France lots of mistakes Scotland absolutely no ambition (England lite). Rugby the loser here

[Lemoentjie]

Were both teams trying to lose?

[Torquemada 1420]

That sums this game up. Utterly incompetent.

[ScarfaceClaw]

What.

[TheNatalShark]

I WAS LITERALLY ABOUT TO POST ONE POSITIVE OF THE MATCH WAS THERE WERE NO MISSED PENS FOR TOUCH

Fffuuuuucccccckkkkkkkkkkkkk

[ASMO]

The final kick epitomises Scotland in this game.

[tcc_dc]

what a fitting end

[Torquemada 1420]

Hilarious.....that was an awful game to watch...France lots of mistakes Scotland absolutely no ambition (England lite). Rugby the loser here

The f**king loser is me. 100 mins of my life I'm not getting back.

If Galthie selects Jalibert again, he can f**k off back to Altrad.
