I'm not blaming him, christ.

Oh dear

by Adam D Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:04 pm

after the Ireland game, all the talk was about George North.

After these last two weeks, Cuthbert has been the real star newcomer for the team.

He has been amazing along with lydiate

by eirebilly Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:05 pm

Dan Lydiate has been immence. What a player

by eirebilly Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:06 pm

This is not over... France giving some and playing the best they have all 6N

by nathan Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:06 pm

Come on france, get a try. Will make this an even better game for us neutrals.

by Shifty Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:06 pm

This has to be killing the boys out there.

I really hope we can hold out, 7 points margin is not enough.

by gelodge Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:07 pm

France are looking a bit better this half, but it just emphasises that Saint-Andre has been poor for them so far. Initial selection and tactics have been errant.

by Hood83 Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:07 pm

I've never seen the hype about Lydiate, but he's been superb today. And i agree with whoever said Cuthbert has been better than North. He always seems to make ground.

by eirebilly Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:09 pm

Lydiate again............. WOW

by **Pal Joey** Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:10 pm

The crunch from that tackle by Lydiate echoed around the world. Awesome!

by eirebilly Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:10 pm

Phillips off Headscratch

by nathan Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:10 pm

why was wales not penalised then for not letting the france number 8 get up when sliding down to get the ball?

by Shifty Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:10 pm

right here come the cavalry.

by Shifty Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:12 pm

Costly error there no need for it.

by eirebilly Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:12 pm

Falatau and Lydiate have been amazing today and have been the difference for Wales

by eirebilly Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:13 pm

That was an excellent tackle by Roberts

by Hood83 Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:14 pm

Awful decision, he was never on his feet

by eirebilly Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:14 pm

Its Wales' GS Very Happy

thought he was ok his feet, but just before that there was a tackle around the neck.

by Shifty Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:15 pm

We need 3 more points, we must get them some how.

by nathan Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:16 pm

there's a few decisions going against france now.

by gelodge Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:16 pm

How was Davies on his feet? His legs were resting on the player and he was leaning on his forearms.

And that was clearly a high tackle on Yachvili before that.

You get the lead and things go your way I guess.

Big call here for France, they are going full attack!!!

by Shifty Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:18 pm

Oh god this is awful Cry

by Taylorman Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:19 pm

Wales certainly deserve this.
Beware of just being happy with killing the ball.
Every french player knows a breakout try under posts is all they need.

by gelodge Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:19 pm

How did they screw that up?

by **Biltong** Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:19 pm

How did france not score there? Doh

by eirebilly Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:20 pm

by Hood83 Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:20 pm

France are terrible. I thought this last week but this confirms it

by Hood83 Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:20 pm

Harry Ordinary...

by Shifty Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:20 pm

This is horrible for a Welsh person to watch,

by gelodge Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:20 pm

Hairy Donkey had to pass that out. Guaranteed try. Poor.

by eirebilly Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:21 pm

They have been much better today than they were against Ireland and England to be honest

Yeah, he stuffed that up extra ordinarily.

by nathan Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:21 pm

by eirebilly Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:22 pm

Thats a big call going for the points

by **Biltong** Sat 17 Mar 2012, 4:23 pm

Cuthbert has been brilliant today.

Stupidity from Trinh-Duc
