Not quite the same though. Wales were poor but France literally gifted Wales 14 points.

We were so bad though. Tbh, we’ve not played too much better this half but like you say, we’ve been helped this half by a bad French performance but I don’t think they were very good on the first half.

Brilliant second half from Wales.

I worry how easily they conceded in the first half, but if they get Davies and Biggar back in the team they'll be a threat.

Well played Wales.

I mean they were pretty terrible.

But you can't really argue with the result.

Gatland h/t team talk plus subs. If he is definitely leaving wales (like he says), england should make him top of their list.

As bad as we were throughout the game. That line out fuck me. To come back after being 16-0 down at HT in Paris is impressive. Especially playing pretty poorly

Yup it was a hardy performance. Very impressive really considering how well France started.

Says a lot about a team that can win a game like that from 16-0 down. They need to drop Aimscombe for the next game though.

Yeah he had a shocker. I know hindsight and all that but I honestly would’ve played Biggar from the start
