By the way, some of the French attacking rugby, when they got their off-loads going, was just spectacular. Like all French sides, they can be brilliant at times.
There's one thing I notice about the French, and no other country employs the tactic.
Hit & Spin at contact.
If there's a sniff of open play in attack, their first movement after contact is to turn and recycle, whether it be a pop, offload or rip to/by their supporting player.
Now, I'm not saying we should employ the tactic, as I don't believe we should be discouraging leg-drive at contact after all the ground we've made (figuratively & literally) with the ball over the past month.
It's just a different tactic and an absolute marvel to watch when when the French feel that "It's on"
