The onslaught came from the bounce not going in our favour for D'Arcy. How different it could have been.

We could easily have had three tries in the first half. France have taken their chances and we haven't.

Don't look like champions do we on this performance?

No. :-(

But at the same time we held our own for the first 20 minutes or so, and I know it makes no difference to most people, but had the bounce of the ball gone in D'Arcy's favour, we could be saying something different.

Still time to get ourselves back in it. We've fought back in France before, no reason why we can't again.

This is totally self inflicted. Too many individual mistakes and stupid needless fouls.

It's getting embarrassing now.

Beaten by the better team. We did make a lot of mistakes though and didn't take our chances. But France were too physical for us. The only area that we were better than them in was the line-out. They destroyed our scrum.

Watched the last twenty minutes of the England Italy game. Fuck me what a boring game. Italy played quite well (for them) but that still just consists of spoiling and not much else, and England weren't good enough to do anything about it.

Think France may as well be given the grand slam already.
