6N - France v Ireland
-
Good game!
So impressive by Ireland, that was dominant. They haven't skipped a beat from last year. Their recycling and power running just smashed France. VdF, Doris, the locks, and Aki just rolled France. JGP is now the best halfback around, and as said by some last year, Ireland's key player.
Great from the Irish lineout too, picked the French apart.
They took France's heart too, and the last try was inevitable.
France were pretty shit really. Ireland smashed them, and other than a couple of small flurries, the French had no comeback.

Ireland play thr current interpretations around the attacking team at the ruck so well. They are very hard to turn over because the front guy is never on his feet, and guys like POM fly in the side. It allows them to keep ball for ages.
They are very well coached, and I think the Farrell Lions are going to murder Australia.

Both teams overdo the wide pass to a stationary winger. France probably did themselves out of a try by trying the wide pass rather than a short one that would have left the winger unmarked as the last man.
There has to be thinking around it, as we love it too, but I can't see what it is.

The young Irish lock is impressive.
He's Patrick Tuipolotou's wet dream - both players similar size, but that's where the similarities end.
