    2000th test try for the ABs, and a fitting one at that.

        Great first half from the boys, their skill level seems higher with fewer mistakes. France giving away too many penalties and full of errors. Sam Cane really has reached another level, outstanding player.

          Three of our four tries have been scored by a player whose last name starts with a 'C'.

            SBW and Crotty the highlight for me in the first 40, they've both been excellent and have linked up well. Starting to get a combination going there.

            Challenge now to keep it simple in the 2nd 40 and don't let up.

              Now we need the French to overpower us in the 2nd half and win, then Hansen can tell us all it’s a blessing in disguise.

                  Fark me it's Justin "Plodder and Plank" Harrison who is commentating on beinsports. You just can't win can you

                    I thought it was a strange call to take the lineout after the Froggie prop was binned. Why not call another scrum?

                    Good half.

                    SBW hasn’t been flashy but gee what he’s doing he’s doing really well.

                      @rancid-schnitzel he certainly looks well nourished.

                        Great to see them clicking I wasn’t sure it could happen but they do look good. Hames is another who I doubted but he’s having a blinder. Also Reiko is just awesome, , really hope NMS can come back because those two on the flanks can cause havoc.

                              Next 10 minutes might be as testing as this game gets for the AB's... hopefully French come out firing, they haven't had a lot of possession...

                                  I guess its puts them within 24 points...

                                    @westcoastie The only thing I could think of was buying time. They still have a man in the bin.

                                        Angus has missed several forward passes from the French already.

                                          Enough of the tricky shit. Keep it simple, score a couple more tries and then go nuts.
