The Rugby Thread

[Liverpel]

England looked good in the first half. They should have been out of sight at half time.

Great game.

[Buzzo]

Wow.

What a win for the Welsh. Shocking last 10 mins from England.
Huge call to go for the win.

[RichC]

Bottled it but fair play to Wales.

The decison not to take the 3 points was ridiculous

[Buzzo]

****ing adverts.

[Chris]

Chokey wokey!!

Lancaster OUT!!! NOW!!!!

[Chazza]

**** decision to go to the line.

It's not like the England lineout has been solid for the last 5 or so years.

[Roboklopp]

Tried watching that, but I just get bored watching union & end up not really paying attention. Too much kicking.

I really wanna like rugby cos it's a more honest, primal sport than footy but just can't get the enthusiasm.

2nd place Chazz. You're right on casemore's arse.

Completely.

But you can imagine the adrenaline rush, in a split second, that impels you to go for the win.

And then the sinking feeling when reality catches up, and it all goes to **** as the percentages predicted.

A draw would have been a decent result. And even though it was a tricky kick - even a miss and you have Wales returning the ball to England with 2 mins to go again.

Massive decision.

England were really in control there, poor English discipline has kept Wales in the game, and then a catastrophic last 10.

With the 3 injuries you just could not see Wales winning that.

[danperkins]

England absolutely threw that away. They dominated that game but the arse fell out of them the last 10.

Robshaw has got caught up in the moment but he is an experienced captain now and should know that a draw with Wales still to play Oz and Fiji is a good result.

Still moving forward Wales are completely ****ed with injuries. Australia have just seen winning this group open right up for them.

[Buzzo]

It's going to be an absolute belter next Saturday at Twickenham.

I love watching big games like this where I have no vested interest.

Being neutral(ish) FTW

I must say, I do think the English squad of 2003 are a classy bunch. Woodward, Wilkinson and Dallaglio all speak well and don't make me seethe like past English pundits.

Inverdale can go **** himself though

[Chazza]

Inverdale can only redeem himself with a casual cunt during the buildup.
