Satisfying 'oooooh's when there's a big hit again

Oh I see I've got a delay again have I

 

[Ax^]

nice try la blues

 

[A380]

Well， that was quick

I still don't understand this 'metres made' statistic. They're running up and down the pitch or kicking it to each other. You'd think the figures would be equal aside from gaining 50 yards if you score a try. littlebabyjesus kindly explained it to me one time and I nodded wisely but I still don't understand.

 

[Elpenor]

What a try, France are scoring 50

 

[A380]

Fantastic try

[Ax^]

double movement I felt

he got a push so no double movement

 

[Elpenor]

Not a double movement as he’s allowed to place the ball after he lands on the ground, he doesn’t move himself forward with his legs

Yes Damian Penaud! Best winger in the world

Mentioned to ms starfish that when we got together his Dad played for France & we would have watched him many times. She said "fuck off, thats the most boring thing youve ever told me".

Another superb try by Penaud

Now top try scorer in this WC and the second highest French try scorer of all time
