Dupont is fantastic. MOTM
Great contest
France pulling potentially suicidal manoeuvres behind their own line like David Campese in 1989. They’re barely hanging on.
Time has run out on the Brexiteers.
Wtf dupont
That was not Dupont’s best moment of a magnificent performance
He was like Phileas Fogg, he thought the 80 was up when it was only 79.
Ridiculous stuff. England going for a penalty as that’s all they need for a losing bonus point.
Could be an important losing bonus point for England in terms of the outcome of the Championship. Suspect this won’t be a Grand Slam season.
CRUCIAL BONUS POINT
Completely immaterial if they scored a try or a pen
Everyone knows a 6 Nations win is pointless without a Grand Slam
I know. That’s my point.
Why go for more?
The soccer crowd don’t seem to understand the rules of the tournament.
I’m blaming the system. Why can’t good old fashioned points difference be used?
I’m surprised old traditional Dan is defending the new bonus points system
Losing bonus points.
Lolzers.
I hate all these new fangled rules in sport like bonus points and head to head tiebreakers. They were introduced because of supposedly “common sense” populism, which is nothing of the sort, and end up producing annoying, confusing, Kafkaesque situations. The GAA have taken this to extremes.
Matt Williams socking it to Eddie Jones like Eamon Dunphy socked it to Rod Liddle.
