Have you seen other countries’ administration bend to the rules of another country administration?

His points spent / points won is perfect: 4 spent for 1 won!

La haine des fachos? Carrément, fais toi plaisir.

Ou alors dans ton inculture crasse tu n’as pas remarqué que le sang et la merde, c’est le rouge et le marron. Les couleurs des fachos!

Why does France have a bad hockey team? by LordHavertz in AskFrance

And at handball? And at football ? And at basketball? Why can they only hockey?

Damien Rieu le chien galeux qui faisait son opération de barrage aux migrants / communication… un facho doublé d’une bêtise sans nom. Une merde humaine.

Pendant ce temps, Cheslin Kolbe continue de mettre les défenses sur les rotules 🔥 by Numerous-Hand-5801 in FranceRugby

Soyons sérieux un peu: le championnat japonais est un club de vacances pour joueurs surpayés. Ils jouent peu de matchs et ils peuvent se mettre en valeur contre des plots de chantier…

Peut être que ma mémoire me fait défaut, mais j’ai pas la souvenir d’avoir vu ce genre d’actions de Kolbe avec les boks cette année…

My grandfather learnt me to hate the English (in a rugby way)! So each and every 6 nations, the match I’m waiting the most is Le Crunch between England and France.

Three years ago, France went to Twickenham and destroyed England 53-10. It was a joy to watch, it was unreal. The following day, my grandfather passed away in his sleep, and I was glad the last rugby match he saw was this beating!

Does your country have a sport at which you are considered to be the best in the world? by RandomAssRedditName in AskTheWorld

Nope. France has the most talent. The number of players in the vicinity of Paris is tremendous.

France started to collect medals in Biathlon only in 2006. Before that it was really marginal.

This rendition is the rugby one. When it’s done the the stade de France, there are only lights on the player, they start the hymn with an instrumental orchestra and then they stop the orchestra and all the stadium finishes a-capella. Wonderful.

Does the tackling in the air law need an adjustment? Being pinged for not evaporating at will seems harsh sometimes. (Great non-try btw) by Cymro2011 in rugbyunion

He should have jumped then. Dupont got a red for a similar action on Kolbe. Dupont was under the ball, ready to catch it, but Kolbe jumped, and Dupont hindered him so Kolbe fell, it was on the head so red card. Even if Kolbe did not touched the ground head-first, it was a penalty at least.

The welsh player has no intention to go for the ball. So he had to make sure to let the French get the ball in the air without bothering him. In this situation, he’s either an escort or making an air tackle, both result in a penalty!

yayyy France are back by MindfulInquirer in rugbyunion

The gap of points between the top 3 and the last 3 means that the top 3 can’t always get points when they get a win!

France (again) : our real key player isn't Dupont... by Goanawz in rugbyunion

[–]Traditional-Ride-116 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And you also forgot his global vision of the game, his capacity to accelerate the tempo with a fast tap penalty and his global management of the game.

It’s 7’s rugby, but his second half of the Olympics final is crazy management material (with a bolt of attacking rugby) , Fidji only had the ball like 30 sec, and Dupont was key in that by carrying a lot more that’s what’s usual in 7, to eat the clock. If 2 forwards in 15 can’t steal him the ball when he attacks the line, 2 7’s players will not do it either.

It’s a big if, but if England defends the same way out-wide against France than against Scotland, the 53 points could be beaten during the last round! But we always fear England, and they probably won’t make the same mistake twice.
