Christ England, if you had a flyhalf, the scoreline would be epic.

Can you imagine what the likes of Smith (I know, I know) would do behind this utter pack dominance.

Do the commentary team have a financial interest in praising Faz for kicking ball away?

Farrel is immune from criticism outside PR/NPR. Its maddening

It’s a toss up as to which of these two have the worst half backs in the 6N

It's excellent defensive ruck play by England. Playing this ref like a fiddle. Slowing Italian ball (when they have it) just enough to utterly fcuk up already slow halfbacks.

Christ. Half decent team will kill us. No imagination. 10 man game. Fucking backwards kicking plan and backs might as well be sat on bench.

I'm going to let that pass because you used the plural and so assume you meant in toto. Even then, I'm not convinced that Fra still hasn't that privilege despite Dupont's presence :mad:

Yup, have a player lying on the wrong side at just about every ruck looking like he is trying to get out the way.

I think there is a deal to be struck here.

Eng break Ntamack and Fra break Farrell. I think WR would turn a blind eye too in the best interests of the game as a whole.

I get pragmatism. He doesn't need to. I'm a Limerickman. We get prosaic rugby (or we used to :bimbo: )

Gawd it's like watching a glass of sick settle.

Pretty much what I was shouting from the Marseille stands in Nov when du Toit was sent off for SA. It's either unbelievably dumb or unbelievably unambitious. Whichever, it's f**king annoying.

Where the fuck was the support for Lawrence? If the plan is to try and bust him up the middle, have someone tracking the run, ffs.
