6N 2025 : France v Wales
-
Zero gainline efficiency from Wales, our carriers simply aren't big or strong enough to get over the gainline at all.
-
Far too easy for the French in this game. 38-0 with just over ten mins to go. They’ve left a few points out there as well.
-
France don't seek to play at all in their own half, but boot it long, then put pressure on the opposition close to their own line. Surely a better tactic than what we saw from the ABs last year who repeatedly got punished trying to play Rugby in their own half?

If that’s not a red then there’s no consistency

If it's a Red Card then Ntamack will be unavailable for the England game at Twickenham. And Jalibert is currently having a sulk.
Jalibert dropped because he had a sulk

Correct decision

Sounds like Wales' nil total might be flattering them to them.
As I write this I note the Ntamack card gets upgraded to red. -

We’ve had more than enough ball in the right parts of the field to score tries but we haven’t had the power to break the gain line or the guile to unlock the French defence

@MiketheSnow Not watching live, can you advise what the Wales yellow card was for thanks?
-
Strangely unappetising game. Just too one-sided. Wales looked slow and predictable, Les Frogs hardly looked like breaking sweat. Best bit was the punch-up under the French posts in the 2nd half
Thought the Ref was pretty good. Clear comms and warnings but not whistle happy
-
Wales will struggle to score a try in this tournament.
Few decent individual performances but France didn't have to get out of 2nd gear to run away with that game.
Sad times for us . -

What has happened to Wales ? They used to have any number of backline beasts in Robert’s, Davies, North etc.
James and Llewelyn should start in midfield next week
Both lumpers

Sad times for us .Though Thomas, your 10 did OK (some weird kicks though) as did Tomas the Half. Adams needs talking to after his confrontation with the Ref. Real stupid shit.

Offside
But continued team YC warning from Williams
-
I'm guessing the problem is the word defence doesn't have a direct Welsh translation?
Also note for Paul Williams: If the ball is off the ground, it's not a ruck, so why are you telling people to "leave it"?
