The French D is awesome

I'm not complaining, but that was an absurdly long advantage.

Are they 40 minute halves?

@Crazy-Horse Yes, of course.

Some positive signs , momentum shift

This new held up rule is a shit stain on the concept of rewarding attacking play.

@Crazy-Horse Yes, of course.

Cool. For some reason I thought they may have been 35 mins

Her last 2 kicks have gone on the full...

"They won't mind this result" What an odd comment.

However in the end it worked out!

This French pack is tough

Definite momentum switch, but they must score at least 3 points here.

Every time momentum swings to the BFs, a Frog frontrower goes down prompting drinks break.

Fuck I hate this rule.

Got to get Holmes and Coxsedge off ASAP!

Some good rugby through all that by both teams

Just saw the tackle on Tui ... gutless ref

Yesssssssss. Fluhler!

That was a cracking pass to Fluhler. Nice try.

Yes!

@Stargazer ha I'm on TV3 on demand...10 or so sec behind

They passed to Fluhler and she flew in the corner.

Great conversion, too! 10 all

That was cool head from Coxsedge there. Most 9's these days take it from the wrong mark and then complain.
