I have no issue with people questioning any player but it’s noticeable that some people prefer criticism over praise.

His potential has always been clear to see.

I see French (and Hill/Ellis) has been charged by the disciplinary but thankfully no bans. I thought when he did that tip tackle he may get a charge. As soft as it would've been, they're all over them at the moment. He will need to be careful going forward with it though because he does have that style of lifting players as he tackles them.

That's fair to me - it was a potentially dangerous lift from French but thankfully he let go at the right moment.

It never looked anything more than a slap on the wrist offence but anything is possible regarding the disciplinary at the moment.

Letting go can go against you sometimes too as you're deemed to not be in control.

I'm glad he's got off with it because I expected something especially considering Isa got 2 games for a perfect tackle.

There wasn't much in it, but in the current climate...

I watched the full game back this morning and agree that French is growing into the role quite nicely. He certainly got his hands on the ball plenty, which is what we want to see, and he really puts himself about defensively. We really need to be starting games with more of a bang, and greater intensity, though.
