  1. It really is a four-horse race to the World Cup! France certainly aren't in that race though… I'll make a video about the World Cup contenders before the competition kicks off and I'll definitely be going into detail on why I don't think France are likely to make it out of the pool stage!

  2. I'm french and sad about my team since 2012, we're more and more bad due to the french federation

    Je suis français et triste de notre equipe depuis 2012, on est de plus en plus mauvais à cause de la fédération

  3. The French game plan a solid tackle line to smother the English, oddly a plan often used against the French to good effect, English plan the grubber kick to exploit the space behind result a hard day for the French, need to adapt quicker trouble with one trick pony teams is it does not take long for your opponents to identify how to beat you, you need a team with lots of strings and options and the ware with all to quickly implement those tactics at the drop of a hat. France way to predictable.

  4. England were class but I don’t think anyone’s talking about how shite France were. Positionally Huget has the worst game at fullback I think I’ve ever seen, looked clueless! Proves my point that all England’s little chips and grubbers lost a lot of their effectiveness once he went off! England still class though

  5. the english have been defeated in 6 nations 2018 in France…some people have a short memory 😉 this french rugby team is one of the worst of their history !!! they should call "didier deschamps" the french football coach "world champions 2018 !!! mayb he will better than brunel ..hahahahahahahah

  6. The French are very strong at club level in Europe but are finding it tough at test test level which the commentator remarked upon in this match. England however appear to be peaking at just the right time…for once.

  7. Looking from a league fans perspective and not knowing the ins and outs of union it seems like it’s just contact football with all the kicking and how are you supposed to release the ball with about 100 stone lying on top of you?

  8. French here, respect to England. They were just too good for us, we are nowhere near their level. What happened to the French flair? Still looking for it…it was a relief to take that beating in Twickenham and not in Paris, which would have been worse. This is definitely the worst team we ever assembled. Kudos to the English for not over celebrating, they definitely saw how embarrassed we were!

  9. Here BBC radio, the English speak to the French: "In rugby, the ball is oval, not square., Rugby is played 15 steps to 2" Your coach and his friend president must learn rugby rules !!! "… In Japan try not to be too ridiculous .

  10. Too many foreign players playing in France and the local French players not getting exposed. Since the French clubs started spending money on imported players, French Rugby has gone backwards. France will not be a superpower side again until they start to limit the number of foreign players per side.
