    The French have turned up and they do love the WC.
    Moriarty was on the pitch for 90 seconds and he could've seen red.
    Elementary my dear Watson.

    Crazy game - France certainly turned up for this first half.

    Ntamack has hit the post twice , France should be 14 points ahead.
    I wonder what France we will see in the 2nd half !?

    Absolute madness. Typical of the French - they always have to create a drama.

    That red card could prove to be a big, big moment.

    I wonder what the French fans think in comparison to Moriarty?

    The three Barratt brothers in the All Black's team. How much beer did they get in for family Christmas gatherings? How proud must their parents be?

    Jammy gits the Welsh. Probably make the final now. 
  • I want Wales to win but that definitely looked forward!

    I agree but the French player (stupidly) deserved to get sent off. Half an hour is a long time to play a man down at this intensity.
  • Why didnt they just do what we've seen in Football with the offside decisions?

    Draw a line across from where the ball starts, if the ball goes to the right then it proves it was a forward pass

    Wales the luckiest team in the tournament at the moment. They have dug in brilliantly but the French have thrown this away. It’s a shame the draw has worked out as it has as New Zealand and England would wipe the floor with either of these two on this showing.

    The 6'8" giant has cost his team victory,
    Plus the easy missed conversion and penalty.
    I would say France have lost it more than Wales have won it.

  • Definitely looked forward to me. I'm no fan of the French but it's tough to go out to such a piss poor decision.

    Wales have literally stumbled into the semi's, they don't deserve to win today at all.

    Welsh jammy to win there France handed it to them on a plate. 

    Makes me laugh in the studio “ that was one of Wales best ever wins “
    no it wasn’t a french team who got a silly red and a fella that couldn’t kick

    Enjoyable game that France threw away. The next game could be good too. I fancy Japan to give S.Africa a contest at least. Who knows, they could even go all the way  to the final but it does seem like Wales have some luck on their side

    Agreed, Wales were massively lucky.

    Very disappointing pundit selection in the ITV studio.
    Why no Japanese presence?
    Toru Kurihara, Atsushi Oyagi (now a journalist) or Andrew Miller would add to the event.

    NZ would wipe the floor with Wales if they played like that against them. But Wales can play a lot better. An England v Wales game would be interesting on several fronts. But again Wales would need to play a lot better against an England team who had beaten NZ. 

    I hope the next game is a cracker!

    Some French presence for the Wales/France match would have been good too, would have loved a French reaction to the red card!
