Huge gap left by the French defence, easy points after a good inside pass.

he has more than redeemed himself for that french try. once he gets ball in hand he is great. it's the picking it up and distributing that he isnt quite as good or quick at.

best england player so far though OK

What a crazy game the French defence has been poor in this game but in previous games they were solid. Youngs is havine a field day no one there to stop him.

to be fair to him in that instance, it came out off a boot and he panicked and passed it to lawes

Hartley has a better game today, especially at the lineout.

Hopefully Youngs will play as well

nice try. no way are england favourites imo. that was the craziest half of rugby i've seen in a long time.

england still need 15 points more than france, and only in 1 half. thats still a big ask. i dont see france rolling over the way scotland or italy did.

Agree. Scotland were poor - Italy worst I've seen them.
France could still win the game!

Regardless we've still put 40 points on France which is decent.

Clear yellow.

This is absolute madness.

But England are currently in second, so that is a dose of sanity.
