France v England in photos
As an England fan it was very disappointing to see how England played on Saturday and the manner in which they lost. From the outset we never looked like scoring the 4 tries that were needed. In fact I thought we would be lucky to get any tries!
Over the past two years we are so used to seeing England winning game after game. Question? Should we really expect to win every game? Answer - No but the manner in which we lose is a worry. Many of the England players looked tired and out of sorts.
One observation I would make (and it is not an excuse!) but England provided a fair chunk of players for the Lions last summer and I do think this has had a knock on effect.
Well at least we can go into next year’s Rugby World Cup defeated, at least one ‘Monkey’ off our back eh?
