France - Italy / England Scotland

.
Italy scrum dominated France scrum... every time...! but France won easily 35-12.
The Italians backs were not well organised and a bit short individually to contain the French backs.
If France wants to keep dreaming of the great slam in the 2012 six nations tournament, they need to fix quickly the scrum. The change of the green loose head prop after the half time did not really solve the issue.
France number 10 (Trindhuc) was also often offside when the Italians had the ball, and he could have gotten a few scrums against him for incidental offside.

PS: Don't miss tomorrow morning Ireland - Wales...

PS: England and Scotland had a good game of "hurrah" rugby, with more drop passes and give away than real openings, and the referee took the whole first half to take control of the game... don't keep the game on a DVD...
