They seemed a good side in the first half thought there might of been an upset but GB just ran away with it in second half :D

Fairly boring game, I thought. Hodgson had a good game, 1st half especially, and Burrow was good.
Wasn't particularly impressed with our alleged new prop.

i went...was boring game. only £9 for ticket though so wasnt a bad way to waste an evening.

was surprised how busy it was. we were stood in 'away' end which wasnt great as play was barely up our end in both halves.

the french number 6 was impressive, but they lacked go forward.

That's suprised me.

I don't think Hodgson did much at all and wouldn't have noticed him that much if the commentary team from SKY had shit up about him for a minute. Same with Burrow, why does everyone from SKY love the Leeds boys so much? Burrow is something different from what we normally see but I think he lacks alot of what I would expect from a world class scrum half.

I was also impressed by Coley, he's huge, runs hard and tackles hard.

I didn't think Ganson had a bad game.

I was also impressed with Chris Melling. At least compared to our FB, he actually puts his foot on the ball.

I think he's been listening to us! A lot less pedantic than usual; I think only about 6 or 7 penalties the whole game, although there were very many occasions when he could easily have blown for technical offences, but didn't.

Credit where it's due.
