Congratulations France back to winning ways normal service is resumed but my goodness what a way to win or what a way for Scotland to lose what did you make of the last decision um well I obviously I know we work a lot on trying to keep the ball in
The air be beond the triline and we worked a lot on that this week because we knew Scotland have a lot of pick and go in the tri they normally don’t take three points so it’s something we worked on specifically um all week they trying to get underneath the ball and trying to
Get then get the ball down to the floor and in terms of France’s performance it was vastly improved quite a few penalties in the first half um very strange second half in many ways but they fronted up when they need to you spoke about aggression beforehand yeah I
Mean I don’t think I think they’re definitely physically manned up there’s no doubt about that and uh it was it was a physical game obviously but um we had to play the conditions as well you know it’s um it would have been quite easy for the French Liv was it 133 at one
Stage you know you’re away from home it’s freezing cold it’s you know Etc there’s a lot of excuses you could use a lot of players missing Etc um but they didn’t they showed fight they showed spirit and that’s what we uh we PR ourselves on you know there the reason
We’ve never been at the top two uh in the last four years uh in the Six Nations second three times and First Once and uh it’s something that we uh we’re very proud of we want to continue that and uh you know I’m not sure obviously isand are on fire at the
Moment uh but we definitely want to continue

Scotland clearly cheated out of a win today
But they failed to stop the grounding
Ref and Tmo failed to make correct call
He’s a good coach ,Scotland unlucky move on
Clear try
so just avoid the question, sound
Come on Shaun, they won't take the win away from France now but a bit of honesty would do the world for you to gain a little integrity. Let me answer for you. Everyone watching knows it was a try. Rugby has become a laughing stock when a TMO says yes Nick, ball is grounded, let me have another look … well can't see every blade of grass and my lunch is ready and my best mate Pierre says the ball clearly videoed on the ground over the try line might not be a try, given the shadow of Mars cast through the moon … no … no evidence that the ball on the ground under a Scottish chest is on the ground … eh … let me look at this ball on the ground again … could be on top of and ant, or maybe a leaf … can't quite disprove that … must be worms under the soil of Murrayfield so I am going to say the ball you can see grounded is not evidence of a grounded ball and therefore no try. I would recommend the TMO and ref look to becoming Tory MPs as they are just as honest and just as intelligent.
C'mon Shaun be a man it was a try and you know it.
what do you expect from an Australian? Botany Bay comes to mind because his family is from England, if he was referring England this try would have stood he is in the same league as O'Keefe and the scoundrel from South Africa IRB should investigate if he has any cash in his account from illegal means ie bought off by England perhaps???
Question , should Scotland have been in that position at all ??
Why don’t the reporter’s just man up and state ‘that was a try. What are your thoughts?’
Cop outs. World rugby. TMO. Everything there is laughable. Absolutely rank decision making
you cant keep the ball in the air when it's on the ground
Disgraceful call from ref. Scotland won that game.
And if the try was given then you would have the same number of angry posts from the French….
Scotland was clearly robbed a definite try.
Is he trying to become a politician?
He not sure Ireland on fire if Ireland was playing in Murray field yesterday they would of beat the 2 team not just france. Ireland should be world champions nd im not even irish.
He knows
Man up and be fair about your opinion on the clear try.
What a cop out to the interviewer,s question….. he knew that was a try…..
Typical English man comment against Scotland. He could of been the better man said yea it looked like a try to me
don't answer the question..fine thanks
The penalty try that was denied. The 15 phases of play protected by an advantage, against Scotland 3 phases advantage over.
We should never see that prick referee another international rugby match. While we are highlighting abject failure and even bias, why don’t they just tell the truth?
France are over-rated.
Clearly hes swallowed lots of utter bullshit pills. Clearly a try
Translation;
Q: Was that a try?
A: Yes.
