The opener of the XV de la Rose George Ford was surprisingly unable to attempt a conversion against Wales, Saturday February 10 during the 6 Nations Tournament.
This will undoubtedly bring back bad memories for all supporters of the XV of France.
As in the World Cup quarter-final lost by the Blues against South Africa, with the race of Cheslin Kolbe to counter an attempt by Thomas Ramos, the same happened thing in England this Saturday afternoon.

About twenty meters from the poles
While the XV de la Rose had just scored a try by Ben Earl (20th) to return to 5-7 against the Welsh, George Ford had a conversion attempt , less than twenty meters on the right side.
But the English opener, who initiated his kicking movement by shifting to his right, did not even have the opportunity to do so since the Welsh ran quickly enough to prevent him from hitting the ball, as the rule allows them.
