Aye, you did your best in fairness. Might have to get Theo to bring in a strict rugby chat only rule for next year’s thread

zero tolerance ban on any rugby chat across the boards is the only solution, unfortunately

Rugby’s so weird

Man, Saturday was so awful.

Credit to England, they were excellent. Like world class. Kinda thought they’d sclaff a lucky win after a tight game but can’t deny, it was men against boys.

Just so disappointing to watch Scotland shit the bed and not give them more of a game. Injuries didn’t help obviously, but no excuses. Defence was shocking. Only solace was that we managed to score 3 tries, which would never have happened under Robinson, we’ve improved no end.

Would have been delighted with 3 home wins at the start of the tournament but still couldn’t help be a wee bit excited at the prospect of giving England a game. Oh well. Victory against Italy far from a certainty too. :pensive:

There are a lot of positives to take from the campaign in general at least, there’s a lot to work with going forward but yeah full credit to Evil England, they are miles ahead of the pack just now

#241

Aye.

Typical Scottish bias from yer auld da here - I thought it was an alright tackle. Boy went down far too soft.

(obviously not after the replay, was lucky to get away with 10mins)

Although the lack of sin bin for the late tackle in the second half. Ref about to give a yellow then shites out of it when his TMO tells him it’s just a penalty? M’on tae f…

#242

thought it was a dreadful tackle :slight_smile: and was expecting him to get sent off.
football should totally introduce the sin bin

Crazy game in France, how did Barnes not award a yellow for constant infringing on the red zone?
Cotter goes out on a high
England leave with the two grand slams at u20 level (Ireland will be well agreived worg it though, several contentious decisions not least the non card for curry’s trip)
And the women (this one necer in doubt)
England deserved losers today, their first loss since Sam burgess left, don’t think we can blame him though

Well played Ireland, by far the better team today. Still not sure how England managed to win a tournament with 1 good performance & 4 average ones.

On to the lions!
