Don't waste time in the French

For any long term readers if this blog, my views on the French Defence are pretty clear. "Bring it on" is what I say, as time and again, Black seems to sit back and get crushed by White.
Now I know this is a gross simplification of reality, and the French is quite a viable defence in the hands of an expert, but at the club/weekender level, my experience is that White has an easier time of it.
Here is a further data point to support my thesis. It comes from last weeks Blayney Open, and my opponent committed a number of sins in the opening, including moving the same piece twice (twice!), removing the tension from the centre, and surrendering the two bishops without compensation. After that I just aimed up on the kingside and went to work.
