I know they have probably improved and it sounds snarky but I still can't work out how Anscombe and Parkes are first selections in a Tier 1 team.

Anscombe having an absolute mare of a game. Parkes with a knock on and not much else.

[sparky]

Absolute stinker of a first half from Wales. They look undercooked. If Gatland is pushing for a job coaching the All Blacks or even a NZ Super franchise, he will need his side to play a lot better than this.

Anscombe can't run a bath tonight, let alone a backline.

You are the weakest link.

Goodbye.

To be fair you could say goodbye to half the team.

2 missed kicks at goal
Shit kicking from hand
Out of position on both tries.

Think he's top of the list

But only because as a no. 10 he's seen more of the ball.....

[chimoaus]

Can we send Read To France and take Picamoles?

[chimoaus]

Whatever Gatland said it worked, Wales score. 16-7 France

[sparky]

I believe they have Minties for moments like that. North scores. 16-14.

[chimoaus]

Teams swapped jerseys at half time I think. North scores. 16-14 to France.

[Bones]

Huget pays North back in kind for his defensive fuck up.

@Machpants Aki was a starter for the Chiefs and was class - he should have been an AB instead of Francis Saili who they picked instead.

Nope. He wasn't good enough for the ABs.

He was better than Francis Saili who was an AB.

[sparky]

That looked harsh from Barnes. That was good rucking from Wyn Jones.

[MiketheSnow]

Game on 😂😂😂

[chimoaus]

What is the rule re the halfback touching the ball at the ruck? It seems as if they can take as much time as they want and the opposition won’t advance.

Also with all of these box kicks it appears half the players are offside when the ball is kicked.

[sparky]

French living offside. Why can't Barnes see that?

Not back then he wasn't.

[chimoaus]

Biggars sacked by the Ginger.

[sparky]

Lopez fluffs the kick. 16-14.

[chimoaus]

And Wales are ahead.

Yes he was. Saili was picked on potential and was actually relegated to the Blues bench after being picked as an AB in June.

Whats with all the empty seats in Paris by the way?
