Well done France ,you played amazingly well.
Always interesting and fun watching RugbyPass.
Love the show, rugby pod is class also. Keep up the good work, Jim!
Vive la France, may we continue to improve and start being focused and impressive ...
Probably the best summary of where England are. More if this please!
Having listened to a few podcasts on the England performances in recent weeks, not a single mention of the impact Felix Jones is having on the England set-up. For me watching the substitution strategy vs France, very much as per that of SA. empty your tanks for 50 minutes and trust that those coming on will make a difference, and for me they did. After all FJ is a double World Cup winning coach, not sure any other member of the England set-up can match those credentials.
England on the up. Scotland standing still. Wales gone backwards. Italy on the up. France up and down of course. Ireland standing still but still top of the heap in the Northern Hemisphere.
You may be forgetting how many IRE players were injured this season - Hanson, O’Brien, Ringrose, Crawley, Keenan + our talisman JS has just retired. U20’s doing Ok so a really good foundation for building further. Would say IRE standing tall (not still).
@@gregobroin7738 Our U20's did great, 3 or 4 test players there for sure.
England had players missing throughout the tournament as well, Lawrence, Martin, Smith and Manu for the first three matches, Mitchell the third match, Feyi-Waboso and Cunningham-South for the last match. That’s not even including Willis and Arundell who can’t be picked whilst playing in France and Farrell due to the break he’s taking.
Naming missing players is just an excuse, you play with the available players.
Look at France missing their talisman in DuPont and his lieutenant N’tamack, hell even wales were missing players.
@@NickWarne-bx3kv it’s not an excuse but not commented on much. Our excuse is we won the Championship & missed a GS, what’s yours for coming 3rd?
@@gregobroin7738and so you should have done. We were expected to come fourth at best by most pundits, and fans of other nations, and yet we beat ‘the world’s best team’ (🤣) and lost to France away from home by one point. For a team learning how a new coaching team wants them to play I’d say it’s a big step in the right direction.
It’s got to hurt choking again 😂
Great show again Jim. You can see England building nicely, and the 6N was really tight for the most part this year which made for a cool tournament. Loved watching the passion in Italy. Glad we faced the 'then' England and not this one in that Semi-Final. Eales is a great baller!
So encouraged by England. Good stock of U20s coming through as well. Just need to find some more props as Cole and Marler likely to step aside reasonably soon.
Encouraged by England? France should have been up +20 by first half. They are under the trauma Of the RWC still. They will be a clear favorite coming 2027. England are building nicely but France will be on another level with their primary 9-10.
@@antoneverbright Yes, I said encouraged. Never said they were the finished article or ahead of where France are atm. Encouraged relative to where they were in late 2022 and early 2023 where they got booed off at Twickenham in the autumn series, lost to Argentina in the autumn series, got demolished by France at home, and then by Fiji (scoreline flattered England in that game). So yes, encouraged by England.
@@antoneverbright "France should have been up +20 by first half" - should doesn't pay the bills. If everything was based on what should've been rather that actually was then the world would be a very different place.
We have the players, it up to SB to select them, he still selects the most blunt non winger in Daly. So who knows?
@@SB-th8uc ? Facts. England was outplayed 60 minutes by France. England have made huge strides. they'll be a threat from now on, but with a lot of injuries and absentees and big problems in defence, France were much better last night. The score doesn't really reflect the difference between these 2 nations at the moment.
Felling positive, finally turned a corner. Got some additional players in France, as well some U20 guys likely to be challenging for places before 27 WC.
The U20’s are a class outfit as are Irelands though a little less bulky . I have no doubt a few of them will be knocking on the door loudly for 2027 inclusion.
Title is a bit off. Should be, What does the 6N tell us about England.
Hopefully can take the biggest, baddest forward pack to NZ. Everyone will need to be fit to have a hope, need a second scrum-half also and a good win for the French, congratulations. There's no rugby without the French.
I was a big critic of Steve Borthwick getting the job. Fair play I’m beginning to think I need to eat my words. I’m starting to think we are on the right path. There’s still one or two selections I’m not happy with and there are some people being overlooked that should be in the frame.
The general public don't give a toss about England, well unless you are English.
England are slowly building the new players coming through a mix of experiences and youth
At last England showed what they can do both in the pack, moving a bigger pack around and matching them physically, and especially in the backs. Ford had his best game for England in a while, I’ve been a critic but he managed the game as he did in a different way in Marseille last September. Unsure of the blitz defence, the centres were caught out too often, but better to press on with that. We have the players on the field and on the bench now to open anyone up so I’m very optimistic, even after Saturday.
Looked a different side from the start of the tournament summer should be interesting
That one hair makes this video a hard watch.
England are building nicely but are far from the finished article, the games against New Zealand this year will test them
England will batter the kiwi,s..fact allblacks are finished nothing coming through fact.?
England handled that big French Jurassic pack well. You have some exciting players in Lawrence, Ford, and Earle.
French-Pacific pack..
2 of the starters are from the Pacific. But let's ignore all the other players you're right!@@StaalBurgher0
@@alexandregarcia9726 plus bench. It makes a significant difference. French and Irish are much weaker without all the imports.
No sure for France. Only two imports in the whole squad for them: Atonio and Maefou.@@StaalBurgher0
You feel England can get quite a bit better, once they develop that defence and attack. The first French try came from blitzing rather than drifting and once Feyi-Waboso and Cunningham-South are back and Care is gone, they should be better too. Worry is the prop department…
Wrong, the first try can from lineout miss and England's back line set for attack not blitz defence
Marler and Cole are going to be very hard to replace. Hopefully Stuart can make the 3 shirt his, but Sinkler is also due a drop back into from.
It’s the 1 shirt I worry about, Genge is going to end up playing a lot of minutes next year.
How lucky were France this year, could easily have come away with just the one win. England should feel good. This years six nations could be seen as transformational in a few years.
England “hard to beat” what? That’s nonsense - they are going in the right direction for sure but that’s deluded
Reserved was the word you were looking for
I liked this 6N more than most...England have done the best they can..France looked better in the 2nd half and will get better...Ireland seem to be holding back...The team of the tournament...ITALY!
England were the best team in the world last week…..oh wait,,,, then France beat them, they are third in Europe currently. Semi final in the World Cup was because they were on the easy side of the draw.
The rugby gods didn’t like Ireland naming a 6-2 bench against England. If Ireland named a 5-3 bench Ireland could (would) have won. Fine margins. Calm down England.
As a neutral fan I do think England have done very well after a pretty awful start. I wouldn't be putting too much importance on the World Cup as they had basically 2nd rate opposition. If you'd have put them in the South Africa/Ireland group, England would have gone home early.Just looking at the 2025 fixtures, Ireland with both France and England at home are probably looking at a 3rd 6 Nations championship. It was less about England beating Ireland, it was more more about İreland having an off day. What backs up my opinion ? Italy almost beat England, İreland beat them 36-0, İreland beat Scotland, Scotland beat England, Ireland smashed France, France beat England. Borthwick had a bit of luck against Ireland, but he's not good enough for international coaching. England have been mediocre and I don't expect them to be winning any trophies in the next year or two. Ireland,South Africa, New Zealand are the creme de la creme of World rugby. They might lose the odd game occasionally but they're a level above everyone else. What's it now for Ireland ? 18 or 19 wins on the trot in Dublin? That's pure class.
What is it about Borthwick that you think isn't up to the international coaching game? Surely too early to say that, and he has steadily improved things over the course of a year.
Ireland did not have an off day, they were their slightly below average selves. England were just brilliant that day, like ABs during the QFs. You have to be brilliant to beat Ireland.
We did not have an off day against England, we had a day where England beat us. Accept it and move on. Congratulations again to England for a good win
In the last two games they scored seven tries
France are very very lucky to be 2nd this time round
Fine with 6 nations for England.
I expected less
Encouraged by England but need to cut out the individual mistakes. Conceded 14 points from our own lineouts. France were the referee favorites all tournament. Helped against Scotland, helped against Italy and that penalty at the death yesterday was another massively soft one in their favor.
sure.
@@brunolopez8614 can't argue with fact can you.
French ref
"England are bronze medalists".....
They didnt beat a good team during the WC.
England finished third thats about right for them. Their blitz defence is still netting more tries conceded against than for. They finished almost 100 points scored less than Ireland and yes they did beat Ireland at home 82nd minute that was only the second tier 1 team they’ve beaten in 4 years. Let’s not get carried away nearly beaten by wales Italy and hammered by Scotland .
Ok so a 3 point win deserves all praise but the Boks 3, 1 point wins, all the whining. Ok gottit.
I'm a Scotland supporter and not looking forward to next year going to Twickenham. Engerland can only improve and are going in the right direction unlike Scotland
England were never out of it
Going into the world cup they were unsettled due to change of coach.There are too many world class and experienced players in 9:35 this team
Over recent years they have won a world cup , been in 2 semi finals and 2 finals One of the more consistent teams.
They were. Not given a chance at the world cup yet once again nearly played in the Final.
Like the Boks go down as the most consistent and successful world cup teams
usual cliched tripe
The only thing the 2024 Six Nations proved to me is that England are a much better team when they stop trying to play like SA and actually play Rugby and score tries. Let's hope this continues cos if they try to win ugly like SA in NZ later this year they'll be flogged by 40-50 points. And they'll fully deserve it too.
They gonna get flogged regardless...NZ know how to beat SA, so England will not get a look in!.
The English need to stop talking bout the Irish 81 minute win ye didn't win the 6 nations and ye lost to france in the last gamd celebrating stopping Ireland winning a slam is where ye are at
Jim Hamilton I love you bro and your work. But Scotland don’t deserve your hype my brother
They will keep letting the rugby world down by never putting in serious pressure to win a championship
😂 Everyone is a freak in Jims Eyes 😅..It's the first tournament after the world cup ..Jeez look at Ireland there copy and paste style is starting to be found out 😅.. There is no such thing as a freak of nature 😅😅everyone's blood is the same 😅😅
Always a fkn Irish comment has to be thrown in … your comments are copy and paste
Yeah Ireland are being found out, back to back 6 nations and this 6 nations the scored almost 100 points more than England who yes found them out at home in the 82nd minute 😂 you were nearly beaten by wales Italy and hammered by Scotland if Italy had of scored that penalty in France England would have finished exactly where they finished in the last two 6 nations, it wont be that difficult for the Irish to figure out a blitz defence that has conceded more tries than the team can score.
@@davidwalker2402 bloody long love letter to make a point ..
@@mamoersebaas2654 a point you obviously left out yourself 🤣
If they've been found out and also won back to back championships, what happens when they improve again? The 2018 team was found out, and the remaining players from that side got even better.
Unfortunately with the powers that be rugby's been dying painfully for the last 10 years if things carry on the way they're going there won't be rugby in the next 10
