Cheers for that. Ref bottled with no yellow cards! Very stop start

Thank you UR for this, and all, coverage of these games!

Full time and France do enough to seal a convincing victory and get their World Cup campaign off to an ideal start. In an uninspiring first half the boot of Frederic Michalak gave the French a comfortable half time lead. 2 second half tries to Italy's one meant that France left Twickenham comfortable winners with an impressive performance that will make a statement in this pool. Thanks for following with Ultimate Rugby.

Terrible game, Ireland should have no problem getting out of their group

Knock on in contact. Full Time!

Italy playing for pride at this stage.

Last play of the game and Italy are less than 5m from France's line.

Yeah and their overuse of the TMO has been dreadful
