Red Dragons vs Ze Bloo Cocks Live

Let's hope for a competitive game.

Top of the mornin to ya Pakie.

Howzit Mr. Wire.

First small victory to France as Wales can't penetrate the blue wall and resorts to a shitty up and under.

Rather messy play ends with France on the Wales line, Wales clearance not out. France punching a few holes. Turnover Wales on their line again. France will have 5m lineout.

France over from close. The revolutionaries strike early.

Ntamack jr. misses an easy conversion, 5-0.

Onder die pale! HKGK! 2nd try for France!

Long range try from France, superb. One inside step through the gap and simple passing sees the job done. The dragons are asleep.

12-0 France in the 10th minute.

Great line speed from France, Wales not getting over the advantage line.

France drops it and Wainwright gathers and runs 30m to score. 12-7.

Kickable penalty Wales for a high tackle. 12-10.

What a gather from a 22 kick-in by France! The came to play today.

Another dropped ball, almost trouble for France again.

Another high shot from France spoils a good attacking position.

Morning chinabeans

Cumon France!!!

Beautifully tapped on by Wales and then they have a lock and a hooker on the wing One passed without drawing and the other one can't run.

Hey p urple one.

Just switched on.

Looks like Joan's French team turned up today.

And a yellow for Wales. Harsh really.

Game has settled into an erratic rhythm after a cracking star t.

Half chance for France but they can't pull it off.

How has Peyper been?

Again, why tackle that high? He could have gone low.

Been alright far as I can tell.

French pass misses a 3 man pod. Takes some doing.

Frenchies on fire atm

Ref hasn't been a factor yer.

Boks can learn from that play by the French, we would have been more inclined to throw a long skip pass to the wing instead of having a deep runner smash straight onto the short pass to break the line.

19-10 France and they almost run the length of the field again. Wales look outgunned here, the yellow not helping.

Vakatawa has been good for France at 13.

France actually missing a bigger percentage of their tackles than Wales so far.

Moriarty thought he was gonna get red...luckily some sanity of sorts. A year ago it wouldn't have been carded.

France misses a penalty.

19-10 half time. France i n control.

Parks can't get his pass over the top, intercepted. Wales get it back somehow. Penalty France, should give them an attacking lineout. 25m out.

Droppy from France, no luck.

France looking to play ter ritory in the second half.
