So dropping Farrell has made a huge difference to the number of poor kicks so far....

The difference at the ruck is very noticeable. Dupont delivers really quick ball, Van Poortvliet takes an age while he surveys his troops like the Duke of Wellington.
France score under the posts.

This is bloody awful, France to win by 20+.
Steward must be pissed off having to play with this rabble.

I get that it's a rebuilding process, but this is a very, very poor performance so far from England.

How many penaalties have England conceded at the breakdown? France look an order of magnitude quicker.

His defending for the first French try was embarrassing. I switched off straight after that.

Former England scrum-half on BBC Radio 5 Live
England are going through their routines but the routines are wrong. They have to come up with something better than they have in this first half.

Re: England Rugby/Six nations 2023
This is shaping up to be a cricket score, let alone a rugby score.
France showing us why they're ranked second in The World and taking full advantage of a second rate opponent. I'm just wondering if it's worth wasting another 40 minutes of my life watching the current West Ham of The International rugby World.

That's England's problem. They think they're playing football!

Shambolic, Italy would have beaten us if we'd performed like this.
