This Scotland V Aus game is a good watch.

The Sweaties leading 12-0 after about 30 and if they get close line outs have Aus really under the pump
In the maul.

Suck on that @NTA you guys just embarrass yourselves when it comes to competing with the mighty Scots

This post aged badly.

Frances 9 is the anti Dupont

Pom pack has an ominous look to them compared to the other ladies sides

French wingers have hands like feet.

I hope the ferns are ready for a lot of kicking

[Machpants]

And upright tackling,, the French are risking cards

[Crucial]

Watching this Blue team closely. According to Rugby World Cup history we will play them in the final.

Man England's attack is so blunt, quite lame. But they can grind into points.

That French defence is pretty impressive. Midfield are deadly.

I wish the ref would pick up on the way that England send a cleaner straight past the side of the tackle to take out arriving defenders.

That seems pretty common in women's rugby, almost normal.

The teams doing it or the refs ignoring it?

[Machpants]

English girls can actually kick, pretty much the only team I've seen

Both. Noticed it a lot in the previous games today.

The French 10 just did a kick Hunt could only dream of!

[Bones]

French 12 rocks. I think she's punished half the English team already.

[Machpants]

What a bollocks call on the tackle

Just got pinged for a perfectly safe tackle.

[antipodean]

Fancy penalising that tackle. No injury, no risk of injury and the crowd loved it.

[Bones]

Irish ref innit.

Another thing that seems to be ignored and done quite regularly by the British teams is players arriving at the side of the ruck and starting straight but cleaning out across the ruck, or around the corner.
