    USA, USA, USA!

    I don't trust the French.

    You are just carrying way too many scars there Snowy!
    I think USA will put up a decent show but the Froggies will be too strong. I don't expect another Japanese-type shock result.

    (he says tempting fate)

    but if there is one big team to lose to a really ordinary side, it's the Frogs. No one does "disinterested off day" like the Frogs.

    Ah, the old reverse, reverse jinx. Very clever.

    And yes the scar tissue is still there, having been at both of them live. I think the damage is irreparable. Why the hell couldn't they put up a white flag like they do with the Germans?

    France were well beaten by the Germans in 1940 but most of the other wars between the two countries led to French victories.

    @cgrant "Did" would have been better than "do". I wasn't really expecting anyone to take that seriously.

    Not to be too pedantic (and he goes on to be pedantic anyway) I don't think the French can really claim a victory in WW1 either.
    And while Napoleon initially had a merry old time in Europe, he ultimately got whipped at Waterloo by a combined English and PRUSSIAN army too 😉

    BoK not rewarding the defender, backwards off white, it's a little interpretation that's crept in that annoys me as a soft-try hating curmudgeon. Should be a defensive scrim 20m up field.

    Not that a try was scored ...

    That first USA maul was organised but too slow. A more urgent second shove and they would’ve scored

    Just a bit of Rugby instinct and they'll be a top tier side in no time. They've got the physical specimens

    You stay tackled when they get you.
