johnny boy68 11,726 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 I enjoyed that game then, well done England showed good maturity and stuck in there real well. Not one French performance in this 6 Nations has me worried about next week. Wales are Champions unless France beat us by 38 points and they ain't even gonna get near us. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bootsha 1,306 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Congrats to England, deserved win, this new caretaker coach blokey needs leaving alone a while, never mind looking for a big established coach from elsewhere, he's starting to touch the buttons on the England launch pad, the players are responding, let him alone another season at least, he may have something......lets hope he does, when all the teams in the tournament are playing well, it makes for a fantastic competition. Well done England 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Aye the discipline is an area that needs looking at badly. I thought the team started lacking it as soon as Martin Johnson took over and never really improved. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tiercel 6,986 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Well done England!! Best game of the weekend without a doubt. There were mistakes on each side but without these mistakes rugby would be really boring. As has been stated above if the top knobs with the emphasis on "knobs" at the RFU get rid of lancaster for the likes of Mallet who will have England playing like Italy were back when he was in charge. This team plays for each other they have a great work ethic, and even though they have only been together for a few games you can see it working. Great game.

Ossie n Arch 1,682 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Well, well, well. 3 away wins and a narrow loss at home. Ireland can't be looking forward to next weekend. To many penalty's given away again, just leave the ball alone and defend. Can't defend a penalty. How quick is Tom Croft ?? I think he is second quickest player at Leicester, good try. Lancaster need to stay, he's got a good team spirit with everyone playing for the team and it shows. Good result. If only, if only.................... Oh and for next week. Come on you Froggies.

Wales have shown some great composure and maturity in this tournament, winning ugly and digging real deep against England and Ireland something we've not really been doing, we usually play well but lose, this Welsh team has a great never say die attitude. Good luck to the boys, you have a nation behind you. CYMRU AM BYTH !! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
donkdaniel 236 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 We've got this jhony no worries about that I want a tight game though make it a bit of a spectacle though I don't think France will turn up now thay are in the gutter and that's were thay will stay come on Cymru this is our time and if I was England I'd stay with Lancaster and get rid of rob Andrew he's all that's shut about the England rfu all the public school boys need to but out and give Lancaster a good try ps I think your new outside half is a class act nows his game and not afraid to have a go you will have your time soon if you stick with what LAN asters trying to do atb donk 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
