An uneventful 80 mins which Wales won, but "oops" forgot about the last 20. Which I think is best described as chaos and farcical. On the whole both teams are, I think, at about same level both well behind NZ and England (and probably Ireland) now.
| Thank god, we can now let the England game kick off.... |
After 15 mins I thought France were going to blow us away at 10-0 but Wales finally woke up and at last took the points and got the scoreboard on their side. However our attack still looks blunt and we dropped too many balls. Slick passing was something neither side could do. But into last few minutes and Wales solid defence looked good and we just about deserved the win. But down came chaos and suddenly a French prop became injured, although he told Wayne Barnes he was not, but luckily a passing Frenchman with a high vis jacket was there to tell him he had a head injury and had to go off to allow their best scrummager (who had been warming up for 10 mins beforehand) to re-appear.
There followed a farce of a scrum x 9, a returning yellow card issued in injury time, an alleged bite and, oh yes, after 100 minutes of play, the inevitable winning French try.
Well 6 nations is over, and it is clear Wales have some work to do. Bring on next year :)
