He shouldn't have attempted the tackle then.

It wasn't a criticism, I have the same reaction after a really good shit.

Papering over the cracks, another 50 caps for Youngs and Farrell a shoo-in at 10. Yay.

No matter how many times you see him do it, it's still astonishing.

England need other converted try or i reckon Ireland will think they can do it. I reckon France will beat them though.

We’ve still got time for a Farrell shoulder charge.

That was bloody awful - Farrell was utter gash.- there was zero guile in our attack - just boot and bosh.

Great win by England in exceptional conditions. Hard to see anything but English dominance of the Six Nations for the next few years at least. English rugby best in the world at the moment.

+1

It might turn out to be enough to clinch the title, but that was a rough performance.

Dunno. Wales are getting worryingly good.

So much this Farrell utter dogshit, Youngs despite 2 tries still poor. Did England have any backs today? Eddie busted flush, he has to go.

I'm relatively pleased with that, the performance was much better than in Dublin although we always seem to fall asleep in the second half. Assuming that this autumn cup goes ahead we'll undoubtedly be fighting for last place with the Georgians

I for one am very surprised that Eddie Jones' England rocks up to an away game and kicks the ball away all day
