I was fuming when England let Edwards slip through their fingers and he turned to the dark side over the river, but you lot must be flabbergasted that your people let let him go when they had him and he was happy (ish) there?

France 12-0 up after 11 minutes.

LB-B in for the second try after lots of forward work and a clever cross kick.

sparky

The Welsh loosehead prop, Carre, borrows over just as it looked like France were going to run away with it. 7-19 to the visitors.

Fast, fun game under the roof so far.

sparky

LB-B proves he is human with a terrible pass after a sublime line break.

sparky

Really impressive short passes and offloads from the big French forwards.

The commentary Ying and Yang. Andrew Cotter and Jonathan Davies

Who's the Danny guy they keep going to? Danny Care?

sparky

Attisogbe in for a try after a masterful kick from Antonie Dupont.

sparky

And the TMO has found something.

Attisogbe was offside at the kick so it's ruled out.

sparky

Wales with a rare attacking scrum. Can you do anything with it?

sparky

France blow another one.

Bones

You fucking knob. You don't kick it.

sparky

Jalibert in after a late Valentine day's gift by Welsh lock Adam Beard with as dumb a kick as you are ever going to see.

sparky

Even though Wales are playing a bit better than last wee, they are still crap.

sparky

Half time.

Wales 7 France 26.

France made a massive 533 metres running past the gain line in that half.

sparky

The skills gap between these two sides is as wide as the Pacific Ocean.

Credit to Wales for staying at it when they are being utterly outclassed.

@sparky he can barely pass so what on earth made him think he was going to put a pin point kick into space is beyond me.
I'd have subbed the twat off after that if I was the coach.

sparky

Who's the other bloke with Martin Johnson and Sam Warburton?

sparky

I like the BBC coverage. Gabby Logan is the best UK presenter and Andrew Cotter the best commentator by some distance.

But it does feel like they have too many co-commentators and pundits. It just gets confusing and some of them don't really add anything.

@pooler-fan classic 3 on 2 where you give it to the guy outside and let them make the decision, he's probably never kicked in his professional career.
