    France are probably the most frustrating team in the world, played like sh!te against tonga and now beating England off the field.

    Manu Tualagi was only something like 13 as well, no doubt he orchastrated the whole thing so he could play rugby for England one day.

    Sure we should be doing the same.
    Surely some of these Polish bodybuilder types can/could play Rugby.
    Huge men and we should at least check them out, think of what an Irish front row could look like in ten years :eek:

    I wonder when was the last time England failed to score in the first half of a competitive game ? Anyone know where to find the stats ?

    England have to do something fast. They are very lucky to be only 16pts down.

    I don't mind a partial commentator but Vickery is a bit overly so...He doesnt say peep when France have the ball but as soon as England do something he goes mental.

    I think England's passing is awful, lots of it high and causing the receiver to check his run.

    There is the diff between Irish and Frech Rugby styles.
    Ireland start with a kicking out half to contain the game, then call in their running 10 to try to rescue a game that's already goten away.
    France run then bring in the corner kicker to kill the game off, by strangling the opposition.
    Hmmm

    seems likely. And seems to be the opposite of what I'd like him to have money on.
