I mean ignoring the offside American picking ball up and calling the scrum instead.

🤔 Two maul. One offside on the line.

Oh yeah the goal kick for offside 10m out

[Kirwan]

So many French penalties

So many French penalties

In fairness, USA could have easily been penalised at the previous tackle 😉

[Kirwan]

They also made something out of that. US hanging in there

what cheeses me is it's a goddamn lottery at knockout time. LIke, three strikes and you're off, son.

[NTA]

Given France's recent habit of playing only 40 good minutes per game, they're due about another 20 this half.

I think Fukuoka was the ground I saw cutting up badly last week. You can see they've done work to it.

[Bovidae]

Taufete'e looks like an all-action no.2.

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

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

There were Dutch, Hanovrians, Braunschweigers and Nassauers too. Napoleon's army was too weak to face such a coalition.

Haha Kearns is such a bitter flog

France are giving away penalties, they are doing the NZ trick apparently.

The old give away penalties not tries trick. Can't believe only France have cottoned on to this to copy.

[Kirwan]

Has he mentioned the French number eight using his forearm to push players off? Waiting for moans about that.

[taniwharugby]

Yanks can go nuts and score loads of tries, my try scorer for France has already scored!

USA! USA! USA!
