Do you think Borthwick watches a player like LBB and then thinks to himself... Steward on the wing.

It's not often you see Ireland counter-rucked off the ball, they're usually so organised at the breakdown

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 3:40 pm**

He's finally seen Doris.

Yes. Yes I do.

I only joined as France scored their second - what happened to Dupont?

Oh, and the French pundit in the studio.
Kayser's opinion is not really relevant.

But the ref and TMO?

The ref is bent.

Injured in a clear out. Was borderline between legal and not.

Score please, cunts

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 3:43 pm**

France were moving the ball so quickly at times there, you feel Ramos should've sent it wide rather than making the run himself.

Still, they've got themselves what looks to be a healthy lead now.

25 - 13

In France's favour.

France looking like the WD40 has worked into all the gears.

Leg got caught in ruck then an Irish player accidentally drove through and fell over twisting DuPont's knee. Terrifically unfortunate.

Eat that you filthy, cheating pikeys.

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 3:46 pm**

France smell blood now.

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 3:46 pm**

Quality try

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 3:46 pm**

13-30.

French forwards mangling the Irish in the power game.

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 3:46 pm**

The way Meafou just swatted Doris aside

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 3:46 pm**

Beautiful in a brutal way

Ireland is broken

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 3:47 pm**

Ireland look knackered.

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 3:47 pm**

But if anyone can blow it from here, it's France.

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 3:47 pm**

Not a bad 6N for Farrell to miss.

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 3:47 pm**

Oh well.
Well done France. Didn't think we were winning today but expected us to be a bit more competitive.

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 3:47 pm**

So 3 sides could be champs. France points will most likely swing it unless Italy totally capitulate tomorrow.

Remember France don’t actually have any more backs to spare and there’s 20 minutes to go

Mauvaka will do a job there for them.

Easterby having the jitters this week, leaking into the players.

Starting POM out of sentiment, taking the openside off when there's space out wide to cover, Crowley covering the centre....

Not getting points in the first 15 minutes took a lot out of them. And some weaknesses exposed today, things to learn from.

French looking good - can't beat speed on the wings.
Super Saturday could get interesting for the tournament win..

Got hung out to dry by the pack, though, the ref was clearly saying use it at the scrum and they were still too busy shoving and collapsing to actually think about what they were doing.

Oh yeah. Lucu needed to wake up too but once the ball came to him, he needed to kick it instead of freezing like a rabbit in headlights. o

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.

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 3:55 pm**

I think we can now all agree that Borthwick's England were magnificent in taking down this French side. Our future is rosy.

Ugh Ramos
