Thanks for having a look, Luke!

I've been in the same bandwagon with Luke.

@@tjv2258 Thanks for taking a look!

Yes, limiting the penalties will be a big factor!

Glad you like them!

Thanks, mate! I’m glad you like the video.

how is it in japan?

Hi Ian. I'm glad you found it interesting. I'm also interested to see how Wales are looking in the 2021 six nations which is right around the corner.

@@ianwebb2235 Do you watch rugby games ? National team were so brilliant at the WC. How is the league ?

Thanks, Foucauld! I'm glad you liked it!

Thank you, Emmanuel!

Yes, it's a very useful video because it's not with the pathetic French TV or Radio commentators and so-called "consultants" that we can expect something like that. In fact, they are useless and incompetent. Thank you again for this video, I learned so much!

@@dommartin8814 thanks, mate! I'm glad you enjoyed the video 👊

Love it!

Yeah we back to the trail

His highlight reel is great! A very fierce competitor!

Thanks, Mathieu!

I appreciate that!

hahah brilliant 😂

Hi! Yeah, Wales are still finding their feet in defence but I thought the tackle selection was much better vs England. I'm interested to see how they develop.

Watch this space!

Yes, technically, you must be on your feet to make a tackle! Thanks for watching, Paolo.

Thanks, Paul! Here is my take kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pbKRi7Clks-7e58.html

Yes, Aleks. That is the risk and puts a lot of pressure on the 1/2 players in the back field.

I'm going to see how this develops as the Six Nations approaches! Keep an eye out for a future video!

Hey, Yoe. Hope you're doing well. Good question and I think it's a mix. You can look at the red card in Scotland and point towards that being stupid. Other things France are penalized for being offside- that should be sorted fast. Ruck penalties are tricky as the policy is to attack rucks aggressively in defense. This comes with pros and cons. The big con being understanding the referee and picking your battles. I think France will be much improved in this area come the Six Nations in 2021.

@@ContactCoach Hey man. I see. You could also make the argument the offsides/ruck pens might be in part due to Top 14 Rugby being a bit slower than other leagues and the players having trouble adapting to the int'l game.

Very true, weekly experience for the French players is a different game to international level. Great point.

I would not want to get on the wrong side of Edwards!! The French and British referee the game quite differently... particularly at the breakdown.

They analyse the games. They don't need this vid

It can, and that depends a lot on the back-field setup. No defence is fool-proof but if a team attacks only one way, it might be enough.

Hi Nathan. Now this is easier said than done but a lot comes down to having a great platform through a dominant set-piece. That sets in motion carry dominance (winning the gain line). If an attack can get on the front foot that makes ruck efficiency (carry + effective clear out) easier as the defence are less prepared and retreating. It's a balance of not having too many players in an attacking ruck but also ensuring you're keeping fast ball. What you might see, if the attack does not get ascendancy early, the will kick to avoid the contest.

@@ContactCoach may be make a video or refer me to one

The new era of the French play is very well respected!

Since Galthié is coach, ppl of France dying for this for years. Everybody knew how he can be good and he knows how to surround himself with the best (Shaun) but for strange reasons never be in charge till now. New era, as Coach said.

It will be so interesting to see how they tweak things but I do not envisage a huge shift. I'm more interested to see how (if) England mix the game up. If it's an arm-wrestle at the ruck I expect a lot of kicking from England. If they get on the front foot then maybe some more phases (hopefully!). It's a young French team so it's a bit unknown right now.

hahaha love it!

Could not agree more!

@@ContactCoach and good job.

*unjustified penalties

Yes, some tough but some silly. Clean the discipline up and it will make a big difference.

lol the referee supported the britains teams everytime, france and italy play always 15vs16.

@@ContactCoach You could justify a lot of them yes but then you have to whistle the same way the other team. For example, losing their feet on the ruck was a one sided decision

@@ContactCoach remove the refere britsh also vs the english the france lose because 15 vs16
