Posolo Tuilagi? He's actually a backrow for USAP. I've never seen him last more than 20 mins without blowing out of his arse which shows how poor Eng has been. Spiritual heir to Atonio,

For a reasonably regular T14 starter, Bielle-Biarrey has been sh*te in this comp.

Henry is his dad. The Tuilagi that looks like he ate the other Tuilagi's, despite not being the tallest.

Is it possible he's actually conjoined twins sharing a thumb or something ?

Deserved score. England are slow, stupid, and look entirely uncoahced. I miss the days before our U20s setup was sabotaged.

Interesting. I rate Carbonneau and wasn't that happy seeing Jauneau selected because he's looked weak playing for ASM (even if he has the right name). But he's been excellent tonight. Bit of a golden era for SHs in Fra at the moment.

Haven't seen much of the Eng v Fra game, but has it been an forwards smashing forwards affair, or have the backs had a look jn ?

BTW, Gailleton, the 12 who has caused Eng all sorts of trouble, was born in Croydon.

These Eng lads should spend less time chopsing and playing the hardman and maybe practice some handling and tackling.

Three games that neatly validate the adage that forwards win games, & backs decide by how much !

Fair play, England. Most sides would've lost their way, but this English side didn't stop embarrassing themselves until the final whistle. Great commitment to playing like useless twats.

In all seriousness, I hope this lot aren't a true reflection of what's coming through for Eng. To repeat, this is not a vintage Fre team. In fact, the side that started Rd1 looked a mess.

You're OK. Your captain says you'll come out firing against Ire....

If I was a Scot I'd be taking you out the back and beating the shit out of you for that mockers baiting!

But seriously, what evidence are you using between his performances last summer in the NZ series win and his excellent form in attack this 6N to base your opinion on?
Mainly that I don’t think he has been very good this 6N
He was excellent in attack against Italy. Fine off the bench against the other two. He was very average defensively against Italy but was playing out of position. Honestly not sure where you're coming from, looks like mockers baiting at best.
It’s OK mate, I just said I didn’t think an Irish player had been playing that well, haven’t firebombed Dublin. Jesus

Wow never seen the English U20 take such a pasting.

Looks like the Irish are all set to slam the U20 and unless there is a miracle the senior side too.

Looks like the heavy rotation cost France as this front row is the best they fielded till now.

This year is the better year, with France & England at home; it makes for very lob sided tournaments, when we have the two strongest sides both at home, or away.

Agree. The rotation only seems to have found a good balance across the park now.

It's more entertaining than a forward slug fest, except if you are English.

1st cock up at lineout. Okay, it was stolen. Don’t then give away a pen straight away.
