France exited the world cup with barely a whimper after a sound thrashing by Samoa last night.
After some really positive signs against the hosts, England, they couldn't follow it up running out of steam well before the half time hooter sounded.
It will be difficult to assess the tournament, especially with France being the host nation next time out.
What this did show was how much Catalans Dragons over achieve on a weekly basis (and yes that is me giving the coach some slack!!).
I wanted to see some flair and the combination of the Death Man, the Pizza man and Tony Gigot linking up with Morgan from full back and tearing some tiring forwards a new one.
And yet...
Of course there will now be gobs on the internet talking about the death of international rugby league and comparing viewing figures this weekend when the England teams of both codes play.
But for me, we have made a start and should now continue the journey.
A good start would be playing some international matches...
