France is seriously Frenching this game up. I think they have forgotten what the Irish try line looks like.

I don't think France are as afraid of NZ as Ireland would be either, they've upset them at world cups before and surely they have more in them than they've showed so far.

Madigan has a touch of Carlos Spencer about him, I do quite like him but that miss pass he threw earlier had my heart in my mouth, I don't know if I can take watching him for 80 minutes of knock out rugby.

I love Leinster and I couldn't be happier that Jordie Barrett has signed with them on a short term deal.
Let's discuss now Nigel Owens has revolutionised the game of rugby by just casually asking the TMO to look at stuff while the game carries on, instead of stopping the game to look up at a giant screen.

It's a real improvement, I love how he just does things his own way and usually for the best.

Sean O Brien gonna eat a big ban after that one. Still, good job Ireland. And good job Saint Andre for making GBS threads up French rugby.

France aren't beating anyone of any merit with that lineout. And they've far too many in that backline who simply cannot be relied upon to defend - Picamoles and others spent most of the second half covering tackles and positions that should've been filled by a centre, half back or fly-half. Everyone praises Dusautoir (and rightfully so) for his work at the breakdown, but he's literally a one-man show with others only really showing up when it's their own ball. Their scrum just got demolished too.

France cannot start Michalak and Bastareux against the All Blacks, the game will be over on the scoreboard before they can sub them off.

I hadn't really looked until at a graphic of the brackets until now, but we've ended up with 4 knockout games which are all 'Southern Hemisphere Team vs Celtic Nation'

France were extremely poor today, didn't turn up at all... Hard to judge Ireland on that one, will have to wait until next week to see what they are made of.

At least Paulie's mam is there to go give him a hug. Really sad for him to go out that way, but well pleased for Ireland.

Might put a fiver on both Wales and France winning to get the narratively-satisfying France-Wales semi-final, although I can't really see it happening.
