Depends on how you look at it, is the glass half full or half empty?

The glass is 50% too big.

Of course France will win ! We won 5 out of the 6 last matches. My worries are not about the result, but about the mediatic/politic use that's being made of it. On French tv (TF1 for those who know, which goes along quite well with our short president), the first image shown after the first try against NZ was our president. Not a very subtle association, more liminal than subliminal, but efficient nonetheless.

Let's not spoil the fun, beating the english is always the best part of sport
