he just came back from injury, he is the number one for Novès
He runs lines like a proper 1st 5. He could play in a minor npc team and look OK!

Wales might regret emptying the bench in the dying minutes and conceding soft tries at the death. That's twice now.

They gathered for the first time in the 3rd round of this year's 6 Nations? Who the hell played their previous fixtures, then?

dire & instantly forgettable - great defence but relentlessly mediocre with the ball

"Awful" would be an improvement.

That is bound to happen! Was Plisson confused for Norths try or was he helping Wales out to get confidence ready for when they play england?! :D :o ;)

He's just made an absolute packet on a bet that Wales would score in the first 10 minutes of 2nd half

Brilliant by Wales. The way they feigned shittiness was very shrewd. The plan is coming together.

Can't help wondering what sort of game it would have been with Priesthood and Trinh-Duc starting.

Plisson was Wales' best player till he went off.

I don't get Jiffy's praise for North's ability to pick up a ball with two hands and plonk it over the line. It was a bloody gift. It was hardly a great pick up and the finish was the act of diving over the line.

Was it Moore who questioned why Plisson didn't just drop on the ball?

Bizarre try from a bizarre game.

Does it even matter? It's not like spending a decent amount of time is going to do France much good anyway. Or does spending an equivalent amount of time together as a squad just make the team shittier, judging from their quarterfinal performance last year?

Besides, you said they gathered for the first time this year, now you're saying "three weeks." Which is it? You can't have it both ways.

If you believe that the All Blacks spend 10 months of the year together, you're out of your fucking mind.

To be honest I don't get a lot of Jiffy's praise! I'm sure wales are better than they have shown, some superb players but no creativity in attack.
