6N 2023 England v France
-
One thing is for sure, we are going to have to be at our very best early on in our WC match against France. If they start well, we are going to have to be better.
-
WTFis going on, England defence fractured and all at sea so far..
-
Already too much kicking....
-
Dupont running the show Marcus Smith is MIA
-
France are off to the races

So far below test level it's a joke.
Useless player.

England deserve that for trying to be S Africa circa 2017

Yeah getting found out. I really didn't understand the hype before he debuted and I get less convinced the more he plays.
Dupont is back in form.

Ref is on it

@Bones When he played in Australia last year he was so far behind the pace. Awful.
Van Portfleet is not helping his cause
Doing his best Tomos Williams impression

Our loose trio are really going to have to roll their sleeves up, as has the entire pack. France has been super efficient and so quick at the breakdown.

@Bones A friend knows Nick Evans through work, and he really rates him. My cheeky friend suggested that his height and quality were more Isaiah West level.
I don't think there's much between him and Mounga. Just Smith has a dial that might be even more hateable than Sexdoll.

England look awful at the breakdown. Midfield is all over the place - bunching up on attack and getting pulled out of position on defence. Think Farrell may be on after the break to add some leadership.

Aldritt must read The Fern
Massive half

You'd hope so.
His teammates may hate him, but he is much better than the clowns out there.
