Great comeback, but I think deserved winners in the end. Right pick for MOTM in Itoje. Whew.

aye - but we did chuck on some experimental subs and changed our shape and went down to 14 men..
incidentally... Cole - sent off for being the last in a string of defensive penalties.. BUT - as it turned out - the offense he commited was AFTER the gouging offense for which Wales were penalised (and feck-lucky not to be binned).. so - natural justice shoudl surely have seen Cole reinstated...

Re: 2016 Six Nations
Wales totally turned it round in the second half, looked stronger and sharper and their passing game was great. Good job we built our lead up when we did. That said, decent defensive display against a rampant Wales attack once we lost Cole. That gouging was bad news and he could have been blinded with something that vindictive. Apparently, it will be looked at, listening to the ref. The Itoke lad was immense and, like Worthy said, we probably just deserved th win. Glad there wasn't another five minutes left..

Re: 2016 Six Nations
Standard of entertaining games has been great. Thought France were doing what Wales nearly did to us yesterday but the Jocks held out well. That last try of theirs was a corker of perfect timing. Bring on the Chanticleers..

Ref and commentators are closet Frenchmen. Fact.

Re: 2016 Six Nations
Not at all sure the ref has been in the least bit unfair to us - if anything he could have disallowed our second try. The only FACT here is that we have stupidly given away 4 kickable penalties...TANGODANCER wrote:Ref and commentators are closet Frenchmen. Fact.

Re: 2016 Six Nations
Whether our second should have been disallowed or not, don't know how the French avoided criticism. At least two of them stood still with their hands in the air while Cole just shuffled over. Play to le whistle.

I've never liked that rat-tailed f*cker but what a tackle that was!
