France v Scotland

Scotland noticeably weaker when branch comes on.

Is this an obscure Dunsinane hill reference?

Bring me no more reports; let them fly all:
Till Birnam wood remove to Dunsinane,

Oh, bench? As you were.

Really looking forward to this game, and after the Eng v Wales stodgy appetiser am hoping it doesn’t disappoint.

[allblackfan2]

One of the commentators described the teams as playing with power, passion and panache. Struck me as 3 elements missing from the Eng Wales game. Listen to the French belt out their anthem!!! love it 😍

Terrific try Scotland

[Bones]

Ramos has brilliantly finished off making France into a brilliant team over the last year or so.

[KiwiMurph]

Nervous times ahead for Ntamack - his knee didn't look great.

[MiketheSnow]

Russell’s chip ended Scotland’s chance to steal this

[MiketheSnow]

That didn’t age well

[KiwiMurph]

Scotland score some banger tries

[Victor Meldrew]

Cracking match this. Way better than the Wales - Pom game.

[Frank]

Scotland don't look half bad.
Knocking either Ireland or South Africa out in the pool stages would be so so sweet.

good for us to see France still has some nostalgia for matador defence in the backs.

[sparky]

Good game that. Antonie Dupont was outstanding. I hope Ntamack’s injury isn’t too bad.

[Bovidae]

France still have two more games (Fiji and Aust) before the RWC. You'd be wanting to put some players in cotton wool as it wasn't just Ntamack that went off injured, Baille and Danty did too.

I thought they only did that when Jonah ran at them. Good to see the Scots have that effect too.

From what I saw, VdM looked to have a horror first 50.

He’s saving himself for the WC

Flush the dunny and move on.

He hobbled off with an injury which is a worry
