The Six Nations deep dive: How France has the North playing Super Rugby



Interesting and previously unthinkable question . . . . but should they start with Lucu and then bring Dupont off the bench, which would be a better match of styles with how they are trying to play?

which is precisly what I suggested before Lucu got injured! Tho Dupont proved how well he could adapt to Jalibert at the 6N….

It's an exciting time. You might never again have such a great generation of forwards playing big tests together from such an early age. But the broadening of your talent base might just make up for it.

Nothing guaranteed of course if you're changing your playing style but you could well have a competitive advantage for decades.

Everyone has the same fear about Rieko Ioane after latest Leinster showing

I agree that defensively, NZ is still very inconsistent at 13. While great at Super level, Proctor made some howlers in test rugby last year, LF can get caught out of position and Tupaea is better in the more confrontational defensive position at 12. Jordie is probably the most technically proficient on D of all of our centers, but he has never played 13.

I had my share of injuries. But it seems you are wishing injury on a player. Why would you do that? If I misunderstood you, apologies.

I just had a look at Jordie’s attempt against the Reds and I don’t think it’s even comparable - yeah he comes up a bit fast which doesn’t allow him the ability to shift, but he mans up on the attacker and makes the tackle on the person in front of him. Both he and Lakai take the attackers in their channel. That’s his job as a 12 in a channel defensive system. The examples of Reiko biting in are when he is playing on the wing and where he should be covering the outside space.

Geoff Parling defends ugly incident with TV host Craig Doyle

Within his rights to tell the broadcasters to clear off. Don’t condone the push but it was fairly mild and not an assault. I think Craig Doyle realised how foolish the segment was immediately when Parling reacted. All a do about nothing really

I agree. His politicking didn't do him any favours and that was as you say bad for cohesion

Roe was painfully slow but Ratima improved things markedly when he came on.

The Chiefs glaring problem is the inctedibly slow ruck clrarance. It eas almost like Roe and Ratima were saying to the Force ” Are you ready ? We are going to pass the ball now”
