Replying To BarneyGrant:  "At least we will be spared months of nonsense about how they are going to win the World Cup.

Do they still award a Wooden Spoon?"
Dunno, but we still have won more of them than anyone else.....

Replying To BarneyGrant:  "The first half was good to watch in fairness. French played with real flair and their first try of second half was brilliant albeit aided by Three Stooges like defending.

In fairness the guys did step up to the plate for a few minutes and managed to get two messy tries to take the bad look off things. I suppose they might beat Italy,"
Since I was a child the French were always one of the best teams to watch.

Replying To supersub15:  "Naw, I think you saw what you wanted to see, like one or two others you had options like switching channels or turning off the TV etc, etc. - - you opted to continue watching that in itself is promising, is it not.??"
Even Barney stayed watching in fairness ;-)

First half was good to watch...yeah and 22 - 0 the score lol
In fairness the French 29 - 0 took the foot off the gas job done but they were able to accelerate again towards the end. Lucky Ireland weren't beaten 40pts!
Not looking good....wonder what odds Scotland are to bate Irelande mmmmmmm interested!
