So did PO'M, so you're in the best of company!

Add a beard and that’d look uncannily like me firing
out a Guinness shite on Sunday morning after watching La Rochelle domestically abuse Leinster in the final.

I meant to say Redders in the spirit of feeling sorry for you over the last few years I would say stupid shit like 'I hope Munster do well today' and 'If Leinster can't win I hope Munster can go and do ut for Ireland'. Mealy mouthed cringeworthy stuff. Well Frank has woken me from my slumber ...

You haven't the eyes God gave you if you can't see what happened with Frank in that match. It was a disgrace. Just because people are happy Leinster lost doesn't change that

I was about to drag myself out of the pit and head downstairs to cook up a nice big celebratory fry, but now there’s no ...

Not enough. We'll need to be playing in Lourdes as well.

Pro rugby unsustainable at club level. Moolah is in the international game. When markets are riding high and money is historically cheap, you can get away with it. When not, you don't.

Would take some sort of Superleague to make it viable long-term. Which will kill pro rugby in smaller markets ...

He'd be far more concerning an opponent if he were a better footballer. His defence doubles down on that failing.

The state of Welsh rugby right now does NONE of us in NH any favours. Feck all joy in being on the right side.of a non-contest.

Not deserving of the vowels in the word 'rabble.'

The O's are rbbl.

Yep. Just don't have the forwards anymore and losing Lamaro really didn't help

Negri looks handy.

Their backrowers are handy. They just don't have the bigger guys to absorb England's physicality.

Nor the halfbacks to dig them out of a quagmire. They're both slow as hell. Not helped ...

He'll pick off an intercept, or return a sloppy Italian kick, or snaffle a bobbling ball. Man doesn't need passes

I get pragmatism. He doesn't need to. I'm a Limerickman. We get prosaic rugby (or we used to

)

Gawd it's like watching a glass of sick settle.

It's excellent defensive ruck play by England. Playing this ref like a fiddle. Slowing Italian ball (when they have it) just enough to utterly fcuk up already slow halfbacks.

Christ England, if you had a flyhalf, the scoreline would be epic.

Can you imagine what the likes of Smith (I know, I know) would do behind this utter pack dominance.

It's England. The original NH Orcs. There are no neutrals

Yup. Monstering them. And Italy simply don't have the halves to dig them out of it.
Which is nice, because our pack has been bang average of late.

Struggling to recall even one collision won by an Italian. They're playing like last week emptied them.

That's a shit call.

England doing exactly what they need to, choking the life out of them. Killing them in contact. It's a slaughterhouse.

Soft in the end.

Release????

Hugely so.

England flopping north south at every tackle. Just feck off ref you ball-less Kiwi twunt.

TheFrog wrote: Sun Feb 12, 2023 3:12 pm Italy are crippled by this pair of half backs.

Yup. They're woejus.

Thank the ref for that. Horsehit call on the penalty.

I see the Walrus has done a piece today saying the U20’s competition is pointless and they should get rid of it

Who gives a shit? I'm surprised he hasn't managed to pen something which simultaneously contrives to defend Jeremy Clarkson, support Meghan Markle and appeal for the rehabilitation of ...

The carry and pass from Doris to Ringrose for the final try - Jesus Christ that lad is on another level

Yup. Anyone else would have been doing well to have popped off a catchable offload to a close-in support runner. I had to be peeled down off the ceiling after seeing the Doris pass - I was ...

No sympathy for Penaud. He did precisely the same later on when he smashed Sexton who was punting the ball. Got the timing just right, which was all Barnes cared about, calling it as much, whilst utterly ignoring the no arms aspect.

All the talk about peaking early re teams - he's not the ref he ...

Looking back at the match now and the Lowe decision is understandable but the red is fucking mental. Its because Wayne says immediately as its happens 'it's fine for me'. He then finds his way back to those initial words

That's a diplomatic way of putting it. Barnes' initial comment put him in ...

This one is more pure rugby and little sh1t stirring.

There is a bit more passion and sh1t stirring on the dark side.

Thank F this place exists

Not to go full Jeff but looking back on the performances today
Outstanding - Doris, Keenan
Excellent - Bealham, Ryan, Lowe, McCloskey, Ringrose
Very Good - Porter, Kelliher, O'Toole, Beirne, Henderson, VDF, Casey, Sexton, Byrne, Aki
Good - Kilcoyne, Conan, Herring

Not much point talking further until it's confirmed TMO only has access to angles given. My understanding is they get all camera feeds but happy to be proven wrong.

Anyone have the incriminating angle?

Someone really needs to just lamp Biggar in the changing room. Just spark him out.
