Fri 4 Nov: Wheelchair RLWC: France v Wales 11:00

[Harry Stottle]

Is that Eloi Pellisiers brother in the No 10 shirt for France?

[Futtocks]

Harry Jones gets Wales off the mark!

[Pen-Y-Bont Crusader]

Get in.

[Gerrumonside ref]

What a conversion from that angle.

There's not much could about it. 200+ is on the cards at this rate! France look so much quicker

France will take their foot off the gas.  Teams always do.

[Chrispmartha]

Much better from Wales

[JonM]

France could hit 200 against Scotland.

[The Hallucinating Goose]

I just got in from work and shopping and turned this game on. France are doing alright then?

France might play around with different combinations, in advance of tougher games ahead. But they look properly sorted already, whoever's on or off the bench.

[Bearman]

It's a masterclass.

[Gerrumonside ref]

While the pace and speed of the French is impressive, it’s also the passing, handling and support play that’s on show.

[OriginalMrC]

This is ridiculous. How can it be credible sport with blowout scores like this

[Futtocks]

Far better skills, executed at what feels like twice the speed of Wales.

Wales not helping themselves with so many knock-ons.

[Gerrumonside ref]

Wales got to suck this one up sadly and not lose focus on their tournament objectives.

I think seasoned watchers all knew this would be a big challenge, but the gap between France and Wales is even larger than imagined.

The big question is what’s going to be the difference between England and France.

[Harry Stottle]

96 - 6 ouch, and only the first half.

For context, Australia beat Wales 86-38 last Saturday (and Wales put 100+ on Scotland back in May).

Even so having watched many England-France games over the last few years, I think it’s still quite possible England could beat this French side.

Should be an amazing battle as always.
