Very good 80 minute (Well apart from the first 80 seconds !) performance by England against the best team that they have played since the WC final. As a game, it was head and shoulders above any other game in this season's 6Nations. Yes, Youngs had his best game for ages and Dupont faded as did a number of the French players in the 2nd half. I think the only reason ITV gave Watson MOM was because it was his 50th cap - England Rugby gave it to Tom Curry and I'm sure that Itoje couldn't have been far behind. As regards a replacement for Youngs looking forward to the 2023 WC, I'm tipping Raffi Quirke of Sale to be not far off selection as long as De Klerk is not still there at Sale as the number 1 scrum half. I'm not sure if the Saffers will need to go back home for the year before the WC.
Best game of the 6N so far. Ben Youngs wasn’t shit. Wonders never cease.
How many points do we need Ireland to get to have that clown sacked? Not corrected any of the discipline issues in 2/3 years & this continual kicking (very badly) game is beyond boring.
Went exactly as I expected after seeing the sort of crap Eddie Jones was coming out with in the media this week.
