The number of times today we've just shovelled the ball down the line today with no threat to the defence. Slade has actually attacked the line a couple of times but it's not really what he's made for.

We put some good phases together there but got overexcited at the end. Youngs should've stayed on.

I would've given it to Itoje rather than Watson. He's been in French faces all match.

That’ll do pig. Good stones second half. Knock ins nearly killed us

Got to be happy with that. France look like a bloody good team and we've managed to beat them. Considering how we've played for months that's a great result.

Fantastic game.

Decent credit to Ewels too, I thought did the Kruis style solid performance, did the basics, cut out the pens.

We've developed a bad habit of kicking it out of our own rucks

What a better spectacle when teams don't keep kicking the ball away, and more experienced refs. try and let the game flow.
