Ireland have won the Six Nations championship after a lacklustre England succumbed 22-16 to an improved French side at the Stade de France.
Here’s how social media reacted:
Well a tough game for @EnglandRugby today, 15 turnovers last week 16 Penalties this week is the difference. but still the game was there for England, more composure needed.

Certainly enjoyed 2nd half & well done @FFRugby who deserved to win – still cannot believe France sub their half backs off who were both playing so well … England should have approached this game based on must win and score4 tries and played in that way – well done France

England have been awful and are getting what they deserve by the way they have approached the game

Would be tempted to give all England’s Lions the summer off and not take them to South Africa. Some of them look knackered.
