Team for France

[hugh_woatmeigh]

Moronic from Price. It was a pretty violent shove.

[switchskier]

I wish Barclay had asked pepyper to actually deal with it if he said he would

[morepork]

Petulant Frenchmen. Wind them up.

[hugh_woatmeigh]

WTF is Peyper watching? If anything Brown turns the ball over cause the French are holding on 29.40

[General Zod]

Merde.

[morepork]

Man the ref is giving France a big chance with those advantages...

[hugh_woatmeigh]

As good as France are, Peyper presents a serious problem. There is no point playing Dell, Brown, 2 opensides if we cannot compete at the breakdown. Barclay needs a word at half time.

[hugh_woatmeigh]

Price was stupid but look how fast he has us playing? Much better.

[Big D]

Who is captain now? Barclay?

[switchskier]

Two captain's down in the first half is just bad luck.

Huge opportunity for price here.

[General Zod]

J Gray, innit?

[morepork]

Tell you what, France are big, but not that fluid.

Intense 1st half

[hugh_woatmeigh]

Not sure I would be doing kicks like that with 39 mins on the clock. JFC.

[hugh_woatmeigh]

Lucky, Lucky.

Couldn't help but notice another legal Brown turnover. Peyper shouts hands off. WTF?

That all came from Finn taking the ball flat then giving Watson it which left him.1m out of the 22. He should have sat deep and cleared it.

Sometimes our game awareness isn't great. But didn't cost us anything so hopefully they'll learn from it.

[morepork]

That Watson is a bit of a terrier isn't he?

Your boys should target Spedding. He looks pretty fumbly.

[General Zod]

Got away with that towards the end of the half. Still in it. Vern to earn his money now. Come on, lads. Will be awesome to be facing Wales with 2 wins under our belt.

[hugh_woatmeigh]

Here, MP. Do you think I've got my blue tinted specs on or is Peyper being very generous to France come breakdown? I think we'd be pillaging ball left, right & centre with a different ref.

[Mikey Brown]

What a fight this is. Very interested to see how Price does, I appreciate he wanted to play but that was a silly penalty. I feel Peyper will continue having a big impact on this. I think we have to get them kicking for touch and attack from lineout. We needn't to mould this game to fit the team we've got out there because France on the front foot look monstrous.

[Mikey Brown]

I think we should have won a few more turnovers, but of course I would.

Both are getting long advantages. I think France are maybe getting away with serial offending close to their line a bit more, but we'll have to see more Scottish attacks on their line to assess that one. I think Scotland look pretty well disciplined to be honest.

Jesus christ.

[hugh_woatmeigh]

No way is Hardie coming back. He looked lost.
