As someone who watched Wales throughout the 90s the re-emergence of a Welsh team hosed up by internal politics and playing lovely, unimaginative rugby is like a warm blanket.

My only hope is they've got one eye on the Ireland game.

Priestland better sign his central contract soon or not even Gatland will be able to justify picking the useless cock.

What a try!

Edit: England's forwards are approaching the 2003 White Orcs on Steroids.

Why would you kick it in that situation? For gently caress's sake.

loving hell, that shoulder drop at the scrum. Couldn't be more blatant if you were making an instructional video.

When France are in possession, they keep trying LE FRENCH MAGIC which is just playing into England's hands.

That's it lad, risk a sin-binning when you might be in with the win.

MyChemicalImbalance: Sep 15, 2007; Keep on smilin'

That should've been more points for England, I wouldn't even try to predict how this one will finish though.

Christ, Machenaud keeps slowing things right the gently caress down at the ruck, even taking into account any English work in there. It's killing France's momentum and giving England time to organise. He needs to sit down and watch some Aaron Smith tapes and take some notes.

They really need to be making the scrum halfs do their entire job faster. Ball in quicker at the scrum, ball out quicker at the ruck.

Just as France should've been up more at half time, England should've gotten two scores up by now. And might regret not getting there.

How many points have the French missed so far? Just the two conversions?

That's not all of it, France needs more urgency in general. They've closed the gap some but they're still behind past the 70 minute mark and they are just playing slow.

edogawa rando: Mar 20, 2007; I think my mass effect is broken

gently caress, that just now was exactly what I was talking about. The ball's secure but Machenaud takes his sweet time before deciding to kick it. England then has the time to set up a defensive wall and have some players at the back including a ball-carrying forward, which leads them to being put under pressure and conceding a penalty. CLEAR THE GODDAMNED loving BALL FASTER, YOU GLACIAL-SPEED MOVING oval office.
