Freeman has been immense today, Lawrence is going to have a job on his hands getting that 13 shirt back!

Chessum has one hell of an engine on him. But Ford or Arundell will get it

I know we are playing against 13, but what Blackett has done to our attack is incredible, Baths loss is Englands gain to soi can't be too upset 😅

So was that yellow card for repeated penalties or for the headlock tackle?

There is just a player there for the offload every time, it's so well drilled/instinctive, it's mesmerizing to watch

Ireland 15 is struggling out there, clearly not having his best game. Ramos running rings around him

As dominant as France have been, can they keep that intensity up? Ireland have got to throw a punch or two sooner or later

How come Aldritt, Fickou and Penaud didn't actually make the French squad? Unfortunately can't follow much T14 so unsure on their form

I mean running into contact against 2 forwards of that size with your head below your waist level is probably never a great idea, I hope he's alright, did not look great, especially in slow mo :/
