A record win for New Zealand! England completely outclassed in every facet of the game! Not really surprised, lost count of the amount of connected Englishmen on the park mentioned as related to someone. Some of us who make that comment get trashed - BUT until the net for talent is cast by someone ...

welshy08 the internet is crawling with WELSH fans criticising Gatland's call-ups. Go back to your homework. :smt015 Uncle Toms to a man. They must be from Cardiff or summit. The fact there are far more complicated calculations to getting the best team, than simply throwing the best players on the p...

Lol. Again we are faced with a situation (just like Australia when Wales..sorry the Lions won) whereby English people again let their English supermacism get the better of them. There is no way that a Welshman can be better and more deserving than an Englishman. It just isn't possible huh? Brace Yo...

I am lost, :smt017 GF has been getting coaching from Johhny Wilkinson, that was what I was suggesting It was reported that Wilkinson had been brought in since well over a year ago, with no change. Saturday was a miraculous improvement! I'd be inclined to give some credit to the current coaches. Per...

Not surprised by Ford's improved kicking performance given that Vesty is also in Argentina! No offence to Sam, but I would think it is more likely due to Ford having coaching from Lord Wilkinson Aim at that Delfina woman's lap! Which one? The one sticking two fingers up! Blimey that could go anywhe...

Spot on really LE18, and if Te'o could pass and Davies could catch then there might've been a bit more to cheer about!

Its a good thing England (which should be every English international player's priority) stepped up and showed what they can do on Saturday. The strength in depth Jones has at his disposal is very encouraging - and it'll need to be because the Lions farce will ensure that the English players who to...

To be honest I find the Lions Tour a non-event. Without appearing to be dis-respectful to the host country and all the players, I really do not care who wins or loses. For me it is now just a money-machine with the usual outcome of the NH having a bunch of injured players to cope with for pre-seaso...

"Anyone else think comparing Brown and Watson at FB that Mikes days are numbered? At least twice he's taken contact rather than offload, where I think Watson would probably back his passing, given his performance this morning". Must say Brown is the worse full back in rugby at using the o...

I thought Mark Wilson made several important defensive turnovers when England were under huge pressure. Curry is a good young player and clearly has a future but he did look out of his depth a little, I can't help but think his inclusion so soon is to balance those included on residency. Genge playe...

The stats make interesting reading. Defending Top tacklers for Lions were Vunipola (11 tackles) Faletau (10) and George (10) all missing none, they also made a number of carries and were never turned over. Worst performer in the pack was A Jones 5 tackles, missed 2, turned over 3 times. Difficult t...

I think a lack of belief is often misinterpreted as negativity. Given the past few seasons it's understandable that some may lack belief, it's fair enough and no big deal IMO, it's all to prove. All the groups look very competitive and qualification will be tough. Some groups look much closer than o...
