MichaelRobartes Posted March 11, 2023 Report Share Posted March 11, 2023 Absolute puke from England. Dreadful. No shame at all in losing to this great French side but that's not acceptable at home. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Red Posted March 11, 2023 Report Share Posted March 11, 2023 In an odd way, that's the sort of battering that might have been needed. No deluding themselves about where they are now. Write the World Cup off and start focusing on bringing players through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way the draw is, arguably the best 5 sides are in 2 groups that will play each other in the quarter finals. Assuming we beat Japan, Samoa and Chile, we will play one Australia, Wales or Fiji in the quarters. We got absolutely owned today but I think Borthwick won't mind that much as it will have given him great insight into his players. Selection next week will be fascinating. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge guts from Ireland. Really thought at half time it was going to the wire, and given Irelands injuries would have had Scotland slight favourites. In the end Ireland only maybe slightly disappointment is not getting the bonus point messing up a couple of chances late on. Got to hope Ringwood's injury looked worse than it turns out to be. Given the feeding in to the scrum misses the front row entirely now, more often than not, wonder if three props in the front row could become a thing.

I thought (but didn't say) that anything but winning the GS this season would be a failure. We've ruined a couple of English GS parties against the odds and have a ton of injuries so let's see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichaelRobartes Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 Great day. Think Ireland would have found a way without the red card but we'll never know. Fair play to England, they made it tough and looked miles better than last week. Lots of uncharacteristic errors from Ireland. Think the red was really harsh. If you look at the laws, several of the no fault guidelines seem to apply. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
