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?

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

English girls can actually kick, pretty much the only team I've seen
The French 10 just did a kick Hunt could only dream of!

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

I always thought that the interpretation was that you had to bring the player to ground and not drop or drive the upper body.
That was just a good textbook smash that made the tackled player’s feet go up -
@Crucial I only saw the one replay but I thought she didn't go past the horizontal and landed on her back, it was her own momentum that tipped her too, it wasn't a tip tackle as such. Pretty much exactly what you'd show for textbook as legal.
