Ultimately, there is no debate. The UK may have done everything it could to keep France under some pressure – and Scotland tested France so that it could do most other things – but Rebrus What way can you play rugby? They ran through full range in the third quarter, blasting and slashing Scotland, stealing games from visitors with equal facilities and taking championships from everyone else.
They're worth it, then some. The French stadet rang through the gu niece as the Darlings returned home after three matches on the road. It was their first in London that France sacrificed a good slum for sure. The carelessness broke all the genius moves against the UK that day, and we wondered if they had it, despite them making it all. However, they have not been able to play since then, claiming their first title since 2022.
Records were collected along the way. Louis Bielle-Biarrey recorded the eighth attempt from the six countries. France set a collective ordeal record in 2001, surpassing England's 29 points.
Scotland was perfect foil. These two were the perfect teams to watch this championship. Scotland lacks French power, but they can all weave the same pattern – and here they did again. France looked rattling for about 45 minutes. England dared to dream. Many old questions about their temperament were bubbled for a few minutes, only to be answered in such a definitive way.
France, like their own skills, entered the previous break in God's grace. Scotland thought it had won the third attempt of the game on a halftime stroke. A great counter by the tournament fullback, Blair Kinghorn established a position where Finn Russell switched plays to the right to put Tom Jordan on top in his best matador form.
It took Scotland an 18-16 lead and a conversion to come, but officials from the TV match advised the referee that Kinghorn's elbow clipped the touchline when offloaded. The try was choked off without further consultation and France held their narrow lead.
More fortunes have been committed as Pete Mauvaka made the crime and assaulted him with Ben White in the Ball Dead. Mauvaka didn't look as if he was about to hit his head white, but his head clipped the Scottish scrum half, the reaction was disappointing. de trop. This card remained yellow as the incident was not high risk, but his actions certainly represent a clear lapse of discipline. So it deserved a red card than every other red card I'd seen this championship.
France played a real match in their hands. They started out confidently and adopted the Jamie Richie yellow card. France capitalized a few minutes later when Ramos pointed the ball inside to Gael Ficcou and sent Yoram Morfana to the line, opening a 10-0 lead at the end of the first quarter.
Russell and Ramos exchanged penalties before Scotland responded in their own attempts. Russell's long ball spotted Who Jones dancing in the bottom right. After a while, Russell skillfully changed direction near the rack and found Darcy Graham on his inner shoulder. The Scottish fatal winger caused harm between multiple pairs clutching the line.
Russell leveled halftime in five minutes when he landed his second penalty. Jumbaptist Gross saw yellow for a higher tackle this time during a more original Scotland attack. However, Ramos converted his third penalty with two people to get a lead that Jordan's banned attempts did not overturn.
France moved in the third quarter. First by rapiers – thrust into their hands by the opposition, but then by Bl arrogance.

Scotland came out of a break that looked as dangerous as ever when Russell and Graham tried too many one switch. The ball went to the floor and Roman Nutamac was on the road. Bielle-Biarrey ran the ball home for the Six Nations record, with others appearing on his shoulder.
That's all for the rapier. In the next few minutes, six of the seven forwards France was on the bench came. There was a lot of pressure on top.

France touched and sent a penalty, plunging deep into Scotland's 22. After the next penalty goes to the right corner, those forwards run towards the brink and allow the rapier type. Coup de Grace. Damien Penault's pass discovered that Ramos and the French fullback tried out all the other points he has approved for his own record. Here he passed Frederic Micarac as France's top point scorer.
More appropriately, France suddenly took a 14-point lead. This made Bielle-Biarrey's footwork more or less unattended when it paved the way for Moefana's second attempt to sew together France's fourth bonus point. Championships too.
