Was a very enjoyable game.
France looked like they had the more skill when they felt like using it but PNG played with more heart.
Unfortunatly from and England point of view I really cant see the French troubling NZ even with a large partisan crowd. That said when PNG had France on the ropes for a long defensive set after dropouts in the second half they stood firm.
Thought David Mead played well at FB for PNG and that kick missed at the end was actually a lot harder than it may have been reported as a new swirling wind had just started up against him.
As a side note as an FC fan if you get chance to watch the PNG/Samoa game take it. It should be cracker and Craven Park really is improved by the new stand.
