I feel a magnificent Jockland win with a majestic England triumph

Well done France, deserved the win.

Plenty for Ireland to learn from, which should encourage some thoughts about developing our game. Obviously you'd rather win, but sometimes it needs a loss to move things on.

Good learning opportunity for Prendergast, he'll improve from this.

Your U20s were absymal against a 2nd string Fra U20s.

7/1 for the win! Ironic that would be considered anti-rugby (and rightly so if it's accompanied by boring anti-rugby style of play (looking at you Ireland/SA)), but France delivered some pretty exciting play today.

No luck of the Irish for a change. Fun to watch.

I've just seen what happened to Dupont. A Welsh player got a 20 minute red for practically the exact same thing last night against Scotland U20.

Rugby doesn't do itself any favours with the lack of consistency.

Gardner was a disgrace. Bad enough the all round cheating but when you allow player safety to be endangered.....

Essentially, he waved Ire on to indulge in cheap thuggery the entire match.

Willing to bet there's fuck all chance it'll be cited.

Watching the Jac Morgan showreel in the run up to the game and we see JVdF attempt one of the most dramatic OTT head contact claims in the history of the game. Absolutely pathetic.

This X 1,000. Pick your captain, pick your vice-captain, and that's that.

It's better than the 12 they used to have

Terrific finish.

Great finish.

Strong run from Kinghorn or feeble defence from Wales? He made a lot of ground while Anscombe had hands on.

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 4:52 pm**

Of course he gets that one

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 4:56 pm**

That’s weak defence by Wales.

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 4:56 pm**

This could get grim.

Going to be a long afternoon for the Welsh backline.

That winger with the HIA will be doing everything he can to fail it.

Edit: Not an HIA apparently.

Toulouse Kinghorn has improved his all round game especially consistency quite quickly.

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 5:02 pm**

Hooker is nearly on the 5 when he throws it in.

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 5:03 pm**

Behave. Play on.

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 5:04 pm**

It’s van der Merwe, anything goes

If that is called, then weird

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 5:04 pm**

I would be more concerned with the separation of the elbow than the eye gouge

Posted: **Sat Mar 08, 2025 5:04 pm**

VD Merwe could have gone much lower too
