    Been some great chat this week ahead of the game:

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/51580990

    Prop Wyn Jones said he expected France's pack to "cheat" in their bid to gain scrum supremacy when the teams meet in Cardiff.

    The Scarlets player expects France to bend the rules, saying: "We know they'll hit and chase and cheat."

    "They don't have to say this sort of thing in the Six Nations," said Galthie.

    "It's a lack of respect," he added. "A lack of respect for our scrum. A lack of respect for our team. A lack of respect for French rugby. A lack of respect for our nation.

    "In the last two matches their scrum has gone down 13 times and has been penalised six times, while we've been penalised four times."

    The Referee, England Matthew Carley, is doing a very good job.

    Lovely French try. Welcome back French flair.

    Looked to be a forward pass in there though.

    No try. Bouthier passed in forward. More than a few glimpses of brilliance from France now. Give them a couple of years and they will be some side.

    Conversation good. Wales 6 France 17.

    Very impressed by France, especially the half back Dupont.

    Biggar slots a simple penalty after a long period of Wales on attack.

    9-17. Good game this.

    Excellent defence there by France at the end of a 46 minute half. Wales camped on the try line for nearly ten minute there but they could not pass.

    Half time 9-17

    France are the real deal this 6N. Just see if they fade or not.

    French counter rucking superb. They put enormous pressure on the opposition half back.

    Nothing clear and obvious there, even on super slow mo. Jiffy and Eddie Butler need to calm down.
