Usually France makes one good game during the world cup. It was today. They just have to keep that inflow against Wales . But I still feel sorry for Ireland which really impressed me before that today's game. A day without.

I thought so, the reason I ask, I have a teenage daughter who plays on her high school team and their home field which is close to the school is on artificial surface. Last season in the spring she broke her collar bone making a tackle. I questioned the coach about playing on a hard surface with no equipment for protection. Rugby in schools is considered a club sport that follows the national rules.

65.000 Welsh Rugby fans watched their Rugby team on the big screen at the Millenium Stadium in Cardiff thats just amazing.All of New Zealand really feels sorry for the Welsh team.My favourite player of the game was Leigh Halfpenny (Wales) and he's got a cool surname.It'll be funny if the All Blacks lose again next week im really only interested in the entertainment side of it.

I feel sorry for Wales too. France played on the defensive side. They sticked to one objective : win to reach the final. They just did it and that's the most important thing. In the final, they will have no pressure. They would have been allowed in their country to be defeated by Wales after having beaten England. Unthinkable here.
It would have certainly been a different kind of game.Would it have changed the end.. Noone knows. Funny as it would seem, it's not always a disadvantage to play 14 against 15 in some part of the games.Quote

If Wales had its 15 players, do you think the French game would have been more "counter-offensive" ?
What do you think ?
