England vs France: Match Thread

by nathan Sat Feb 23, 2013 8:44 pm

First topic message reminder :

Couldn't see a match thread for this, so i created this one.

Getting nervous, haven't a clue who will win.

by Guest Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:19 pm

Farrell looks to be injured.....

by mystiroakey Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:19 pm

OF is gone!!

bring on flood quick

by nathan Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:19 pm

hamstring?

by thebluesmancometh Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:19 pm

Farell looks in trouble, attack him and the space he leaves!

Pity, hope thats nothing serious that can effect his lions duties!

by nathan Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:20 pm

such a shame for him

by MarcusHalberstram Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:20 pm

Was just about to say, I can't really understand how England are ahead - then Manu scores. Game just gone off the boil now - France ready to surrender..? Seems stupid as they seemed by far the better team - though the scoreline says not!

"Tom Youngs... Toby Young, even fresher... to Mike Young..."

by nathan Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:20 pm

ashton keeps making the wrong decisions

by thebluesmancometh Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:21 pm

Joubert doesnt want to call anything, Vunipola couldve been carded for that!

by mystiroakey Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:23 pm

england have learnt how to tackle at last!!

by thebluesmancometh Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:23 pm

Michalak you useless twit!!!

by 100%beefy Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:23 pm

Freddie the fumbler! picard

by nathan Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:24 pm

the pass was the floor, you can't blame him that much for that.

by Guest Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:24 pm

I suppose technically there's a case for tackler not releasing on Picamoles there.

by Guest Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:25 pm

Joubert with the scrums has taken way too long...

by thebluesmancometh Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:25 pm

SCW in my fly halfs are there to score tries not kick goals Laugh

by nathan Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:25 pm

better scrum by england, french have weakened theres.

by **George Carlin** Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:26 pm

Ashton...

He's turning into a bit of a clown!

by nathan Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:28 pm

by mystiroakey Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:28 pm

by Guest Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:28 pm

im a huge fan of Flood...would love to see Flood 10, Farrell 12, tuilagi 13

by Looseheaded Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:29 pm

HOW IS A PROFESSIONAL RUGBY PLAYER THAT BAD?
HOW IS HE STILL GETTING PICKED?

His defence and attack is shocking, why not stick JSD or Wade in there?

by mystiroakey Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:29 pm

No but his attack is significantly better.

If you're gonna have a cack defender atleast have him a great attacker

by mystiroakey Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:31 pm

BROWN does that every game a few times.. different league gainer!

by Morgannwg Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:31 pm

England have a few players in their team who were not born in England. Commentary don't see the need to mention it and rightly so. But when France bring on Classens they have to mention he was born in South Africa. As I said earlier, it doesn't matter when they're playing on the pitch!

true.

Wish flood would stop kicking it away.

by thebluesmancometh Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:32 pm

Ashton...

just nail him!!

France are falling apart now, passes are awfull, they look frightened!!

by nathan Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:33 pm

lets see which kicking boots flood is wearing today.

by Morgannwg Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:33 pm

Told you fat Basteraud was useless. He's cost me money.

by mystiroakey Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:34 pm

well done Flood!!

by nathan Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:34 pm

lol, he's gone off now.

by thebluesmancometh Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:35 pm

It's safe to say Michalak is a game changer!!!

by Looseheaded Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:35 pm

I'm guessing Michalak sees dead people because there were no damn figures I could see out there

by **George Carlin** Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:35 pm

Smart kick by Flood.

Man of the match is difficult - Robshaw or Picamoles for me.

by BamBam Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:36 pm

Nice kick from Flood

by **Ozzy3213** Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:36 pm

Robshaw has been excellent today.

by thebluesmancometh Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:36 pm

ENGLAND PENALTY Frak OFF JOUBERT!!!

He held on for 10 seconds...

by BamBam Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:37 pm

Fritz is a moron, come on Flood knock this over

by nathan Sat Feb 23, 2013 10:38 pm
