Really looking forward to this game…
Can England continue their run of form and the run of successive wins??
I see Joost van der Westhuizen is in critical condition in hospital… and being kept alive by machines.
All the best to his friends and family and to Joost himself!
@ grootblousmile:
That’s sad news about Joost, been a long hard battle for him.
3 @ Bullscot:
Yeah, it’s been a long hard road…
Players about ready to come out onto the pitch.
Players now out on the field… Anthems up next.
France Anthem will be up 1st, of course…
Now for God Save The Queenie…
Dear Mr Jones:
It has been very disappointing to see that you have chosen to give a serial offender yet another chance; not only to play but even more to captain his country. This player’s actions have been thuggish and earned him a lot of time out of the game. I sincerely hope that no one is seriously hurt as a result of any foul play by him. He has to take personal responsibility for his actions but you have played a big part in him taking the field today and in future games he plays for you so cannot wash your hands…
Game ON!
Kick-Off by England!
England get a Free Kick from the 1st scrum of the match.

25 @ Bullscot:
Boring game so far.
France attacks hard… and make good ground, Spedding prominent… but then a relieving England penalty… kicked out.
