    Le Crunch .. on ITV at 4.45 (p.m.) .. should be a good one and will test the resolve of the tough and talented French and we'll see if Jones's favourites are worth persevering with .. Tomorrow another goodie, Scotland v Ireland .. foregone conclusion ? today .. Italy v Wales

    It's a good game after the 1st half ...french look a bit more fluent with the ball in hand and deserve to be ahead...I'd ask England not to kick as much and go through the phases..we need a bit more creativity outside the scrum

    A good, very close game..England looked a lot more match sharp today ..much more bite in the forwards, France very unlucky..

    Nice for us to do to France what other sides have done to us, when we've been chasing the Grand Slam

    Probably the first time in my life i wanted the French to win. They were superb.

    So it's either smug Welsh pricks or gutted Taffs...  mmm. ALEZ LES BLEU

    Wales have been so, so lucky. I think the French have played far better than Wales

    After a good shagging from the Irish at Cheltenham, England will be looking to get one over them tomorrow in Dublin. I expect them to do it, just.
    Wales go to France looking for a grand slam. France lost narrowly to England last time and it'll be interesting to see how they respond. I think France will win, just

    Ireland finish the game with 13 men on the pitch, a very much deserved win. I thought it was a harsh red card.

    They need to get rid of Jones, fresh ideas needed.

    the thing with the red card is that if a man is charging towards you, you MUST try to tackle low, it's a VERY fine margin. Ireland were terrific, committed and determined, England were frankly disorganised, badly selected rubbish.
     For England, as I have been saying for 6 months at least, wholesale changes are needed NOW ..
    Can't ride or train horses, can't play rugby, disastrous week for the English, well done Ireland.

    The luck of the Irish seems to have rubbed off on the Welsh. The cliché says you never know which France will turn up. IF IF they play as they have all season (except v England ironically), they will win. The Welsh will try and wind them up, if they succeed, then Wales will win. Good referee tonight, Pearce the Englishman, he will be important as (unfortunately) so are all match officials in all sports nowadays. I still fancy France .. JUST. Expect a very fraught game.

    Wonder what the odds were on a Welsh GS before the first game?

    Wales score a try, where it looked this the ball was held up.

    It is 'frustrating' that they have been so lucky rather than better
