France v Scotland

W32

I’m got the result and margin in the Scotland game bang on last weekend. I see no reason why that won’t continue.

Dupont out, Scotland to beat a dispirited and directionless France by 12

I’ll have some of what you’re smoking.
I’m going France 34 Scotland 12

Has there been much though ?

I mean for years in the 2000s to 2010s they had some bloody useful forwards and plodding backs. Now it seems like the other way round.

Does anyone really think they're consistent world beaters apart from playing shit teams like England ( which they should have won ) and Australia ?

They don't stand up vs South Africa, Ireland or France and they don't even play the ABs.

Every man and his dog was talking about a 6N Title and a Lions team full of Jocks about two months ago

Now, not so much

All the "experts" picking their Lions XVs had three or four Scots ( loose term I know ) in the backs but I don't recall many if any forwards.

Schooman and Dempsey were in the mix

Kruse

This is a fucking hard watch.
Partially as I'm in a pub called the Kangaroo&Kiwi, watching an abysmal quality stream, with some loud frogs getting very excited about the smallest of things. Been on the burgundy since early morning, methinks.

Looking forward to the seppo halftime analysis but. I didn't catch much of the pregame, but it seemed about as asinine as you'd expect.

Kruse

2x French brainfades + 1 Scotch hollywood = 1 yellow card + review

Carley is a gutless twat. That's a clear red card.

Jet

Carley is abysmal.

On the Mount Rushmore of shite refs.

sparky

France leading 16-13 at the break so Scotland still in it. The main talking point from the first half is Mauvaka not seeing Red.

mariner4life

France are mentally weak.

sparky

Bielle-Biarrey has serious wheels.

sparky

Excellent second half performance from France so far. They are heading for the Championship.

Kruse

All over.

mariner4life

LBB is the best winger in the world and i don't think it's close

sparky

France 35 Scotland 16 with 15 minutes to play.

Bielle-Biarrey outstanding. Party time coming on the Champs-Elysées.

sparky

Van Der Merwe has been very quiet tonight. France have contained him well so far.

MN5

Shit, was looking good til that try got disallowed.

Ah well, they'll still get a few Lions on the plane to Oz mid year.
