Nah. Wales to beat France by 27 points ..

Let’s hope so

Score flattered us today, but a wins a win. Third behind the world number 1 and 2 is fairly acceptable I think, obviously that’s unless any odd results happen this afternoon.

Anyone else finding the commentary is fractionally ahead of the picture? V irritating

Now I can relax and enjoy the rugby. Unlike the majority of posters on here 👹

me too, like a second or so.

That was a lot better than I’d feared.Another half similar to that and I’ll be content enough.

“Tomkins gets smashed”…then he gets smashed. Unless they’re psychic…

Think this going to get even more painful for Wales. 😳

France looking very clinical here, could be a very long day at the office for Wales

The only hope for Wales is that they can concede less than England v France therefore look marginally better.

3 converted, unanswered tries! 😀😀

Wales fans in a certain age bracket are pretty comfortable with this concept.

It was happening a few weeks ago too. It’s a bit strange.

Fair play to Wales to stay in that. Given where they’ve been this 6N, they did well to score 4 tries against France when it was beginning to look like it might be a hammering. 21-21 in the second half. Not sure France are as good as they looked at Twickenham.

After dreading a horror show, there were several things to be happier about from the Wales performance imho. I can picture us hopefully getting out of our World Cup group now, which appeared a dream a couple of weeks ago.

We need England to put on a big performance next to keep the entertainment going.

or it could just be that Wales had a better game plan. England had the poorest score against France compared to all the other sides.

We need England to put on a big performance next to keep the entertainment going.

Should ‘we’ apologise now or after?

I’m doing the best I can but I really can’t drink any faster.

Well England look up for it all right

Please can we just stop the clock now??

Good try Ireland

He deserved that red. The ITV commentary is poor

You should ask for a job.

Took my boy to Bath duathlon today. On way home KFC had run out of chicken, I shit you not, just as I thought things couldn’t get worse the car broke down on the M4, only took RAC 2.45mins to arrive..just got home. Have I missed out?

I’m done with international rugby. Referees looking for every chance to send players off. Every ruck players charge in headfirst, but if any back has the slightest head contact it’s a red.

He deserved that red.

Give over, he was trying to avoid the collision. Peyper has been his usual cross all game and that was the crowning turd on the top of that half.

The ITV commentary is poor

Well duh, the pope shits in the woods too.

By the letter of it law it is a red I am afraid, but to avoid it Steward would have to have not protected himself and got his ribs caved in.

but if any back has the slightest head contact it’s a red

That wasn’t a “slight” head contact though.

Steward hard done by. He can’t tackle a player without the ball and his instinct is to protect his ribs. Small man syndrome Pieper does it again.

What should he have done? Tackles him properly.
He wouldn’t turn that shoulder if the ball was live so why turn the shoulder, and hence the elbow head contact?
Red card I’m afraid. More importantly it’s annoyed sir Clive flubadub and this a good thing in anyone’s book.

Oh and today’s bit of delightful commentary ” they’re forcing the unforced errors” honestly wtf

Its a clear red under the laws.  Harsh as hell for sure but if he had time to drop his arms and turnside on he had enough time to put his arms out to attempt a legal tackle or to turnaway.  He didn’t.  He turned into him and dropped his arms

Harsh, not really what the laws are for but correct in the law

Peyper says “clear shoulder to the head” he’s obvs blind as well as useless.

Absolutely, he should have said clear elbow to the head.

See the size of that Irish replacement tight head?

Hi tackle on Watson by Hansen surely?

I have massive respect for Kyle Sinckler in this match. Council house kid has trounced his demons and is doing his job in a strong, quiet robust fashion with no errors.

Hi tackle on Watson by Hansen surely?

Yep, around the neck.

Forward final pass anyone? 🙄

That’s a forward pass!

FFS now we are playing the official as well, it 18 vs 14!

😂😂😂😂😂 England discipline is awful

Although apparently nonofsidebline if you’re in white.
And Willis yellow.
