How often is a try scored off first phase set piece ball, against a top international defence, without a tackle being missed?!

[Bones]

Dupont is ridiculous.

[MiketheSnow]

Great 40mins

England 13 France 17 at half time.

Marchand impressed again that half. Great throw before the Penaud try.

Is that the fluffybunny's music on loudspeaker?

[Bones]

Ok Billy with over 40m from 10 runs, so that's much better than I thought he was doing.

England winning kicking contest.

Really? Malins has looked a bit meh for me. That last one, caught in the 22, takes it right up to the 22 line and belts it.... infield. What was the point in that? If you're not kicking it out, might as well run as many metres forward as you can before kicking.

Edit: then France catch it, put it high and regather.

[Billy Tell]

Best NH game I’ve seen in a while so far. Great watch.

[sparky]

French kick over.

England 13 France 20.

[Victor Meldrew]

England's discipline letting them down when on attack.

Good game to watch. French passing is great to watch. Ben Youngs having a great game.

[sparky]

France are really blessed with young Number 10s at the moment. Jalabert, 22, and Ntamack, 21.

[sparky]

Farrell with a kick.

England 16 France 20. 25 minutes to go.

From when I typed it English kicking faltered!

[Bones]

Malins passing skills now being shown up.

Is May related to Beauden? Everything he does just works.

[sparky]

England in at the side. "Never through the gate." Giving away sloppy penalties in the last 15 minutes again.

[Bones]

Slade has defended excellently for the most part.

Is Sinckler really chewing gum?
