    Indeed. The French TV director for once replayed it.

    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.

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

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

    Irish Rugby is going backwards fast. Their decline is showing how important BOD and POC were to them.

    <p>Schmidt got shown up for his conservative selection policy in the backs.  He ain't cutting the mustard as a selector at the moment.  Pretty dire game over all.</p>

    Have to say, the Welsh crowd in full voice beats any fucking anthem, dirge, haka, etc into the hapenny place.

    Have to say Greg Laidlaw is a joy to watch when he gets going.

    I'm not an expert on scrummaging but you have to wonder if the crooked feed is actually causing a lot of resets. <br><br>
    Would strict enforcement of straight feeds force both sides to focus on what the scrum is meant to be about?
