<p>Wales unchanged for the Scottish match, with Biggar making a 'miraculous' recovery.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Time for us to do to Scotland what Eddie Jones wants England to do to Italy.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Spank them.</p>

[Crash]

<p>The colossus of Nick White for Ireland??? </p>
<p>Bo wonder their scrum went backwards</p>

[Derm McCrum]

Well it's colossus crunch time so far with the French flying in from all angles - late and high as well as fair. <br><br>
O'Brien and Kearney have had to leave already. And Sexton being softened up slowly. <br><br>
6-0 to Ireland though with 30 mins gone

[Billy Tell]

Diabolical game so far

[Derm McCrum]

Sexton knocks another one over. <br><br>
9-3. 1 minute left to HT. <br><br>
Ireland concede a penalty from kick off.

[Derm McCrum]

Plisson kicks and puts it wide. <br><br>
9-3 at halftime to Ireland. <br><br>
It's going to be a heavy battle in the second. France with the stronger bench.

[MiketheSnow]

<p>Shit weather, shit tactics, shit skill levels, shit decision making, shit kicking, shit TMOing.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>SHIT HALF</p>

[Derm McCrum]

The French want a turf war. <br><br>
They're getting one. <br><br>
Win by any means necessary, I think.

[Cookie]

Doing the ironing while watching this. Key highlights of the the 1st half: 6 shirts, 3 trousers.

[MiketheSnow]

<p>Add shit refereeing to the mix.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Off his head, no knock on, play on.</p>

[Derm McCrum]

Make sure you get the creases right

<br>
Indeed. The French TV director for once replayed it.

[sparky]

I'm old enough to remember when the French were the kings of attacking rugby. It seems a very long time ago now.<br><br>
The expensive foreign imports into French Top 14 Club Rugby seem to be destroying the quality of their national side.

[Derm McCrum]

The French crowd rise to clap McCarthy as he's stretchered off the field. <br><br>
They do like their gladiators here.

[Derm McCrum]

Jeez - Ireland under the cosh in the scrum. Penalty try coming up.

[Wreck Diver]

<p>man this is a shit game played by 2 poorly skilled teams. no wonder they got no wear at the rwc.</p>

[Wreck Diver]

<p>Brian Moore is such an arse. what would we do without his moral cumpuse</p>

[Derm McCrum]

Fuuuuuuckk!<br><br>
10-9 to France. <br><br>
Congrats France.

<br>
They were naked? Missed that.

[MiketheSnow]

<p>France did Ireland at the scrum just like Wales did, esp. for the try.</p>
