    Corbs would get it redistributed fairly.

      Tough game this.

      Great try-saving tackle by O'Mahoney
      That rug really tied the room together.

        Ireland have really struggled so far.

          Yep - Irish not having it all their own way.

            Italy have played well tbh. Really got at the Irish so far, let's see how they cope with the last 15 though

              They are a funny team Italy. Can really blow hot and cold.

              We played them twice in the run in to the WC and won twice. The first game was close, the second they were abject and we blew them away.

                  Burgess been binned then.

                  Shame as I reckon he is better than Barritt.

                  Rumours he is back off to league where he will be sensational again.

                    Slade should have been starting, Barritt is just the modern version of Tindell

                      It's staggering how many times Lancaster changes that Centre pairing. I can't keep up.

                        Detrimental to the side IMO and you need someone with an eye for a pass.

                          Twelvetrees and Burrell binned for Barritt is ****e.

                          Tuilagi was a huge miss.

                            You can't help but feel (despite his denial) that Andy Farrell is the one pushing selection decisions with the backs.

                            George Ford had a great 6 nations. It was strange to see him binned for the Wales and Oz games.

                              Muddled thinking.

                              Ford had a couple of poor warm up games and was dropped after Fiji despite being the main playmaker in that backline. Farrell did ok but ford should have still played maybe with Farrell at centre.

                              If not Slade should have played instead of Barritt is or Burgess

                                Yeah, pretty much any combination other than those the one played.

                                That said. England were cruising against Wales. I still think not kicking for 3 points was a catastrophic mistake. If that kick had gone over and the game drawn, then even getting pumped by the Aussies England are still in the tournament and Wales are left needing a result against the Australians.
