The lesson for the USA: go for the corner and get the pressure on

That was the big moment. They have a good maul too

Falling apart now. Shame

@NTA ,unfortunately the USA just don’t have intention or skill that Japan bought to the table against Ireland ,game over now,
This has been more of a very poor French performance as opposed to a good USA effort..

Winger catches ball be would have dropped on his 22

Inevitable once they got one they were going to get a couple more

They lack the development systems and competitions to date that the Japan players have enjoyed.

Give it a decade, when they've got more high schoolers and University Rugby players

Bit harsh there. US defence has been good, but they lack class in attack so scoring points was always going to be tough no matter how good or bad France are.

Greg Peterson. Still a massive fucking idiot despite all the opportunities he was given here

Had a man in the clear, didn't even look

Mmmm I have seen at least 5 Carries exactly as Kerevi carried no penalties where is Ben Skeen to slow the game down

cracking effort from the USA for the first 70min. France do an AB's and score a couple in four min. and thats the game.

McGinty just hesitates a bit too often.

Good flyhalf for 10 man Rugby

What do we reckon of the baby Ntamack? Comes into the WC as France's next best thing to sliced bread.

I think Ben O'Keefe (thats the ref a?) has been pretty good. Super impressive that he was able to speak French to the French to explain things. Super handy skill that.

Should have yanked McGinty 15 minutes ago

Not so much talking about him where Ben Skeen we need that idiot to pull up every carry

@NTA Was thinking the same thing haha. Not someone you want at 10 if you're down by more than 10.

They go for the corner instead of taking points 20 minutes ago, they could be a poiny up and a man up to boot.

Now the Big Show ABs

Can't help but feel the decision by the yanks to go for the penalty rather than push for the try was the determinant for the outcome of the game. France simply too good for about 15minutes.

Terrible five-eighth. Utterly out of his depth at this level.
