He's more Scottish then Manu is English. Maybe Manu should be on the selection panel?

I have to disagree with a lot of what everyone has said about the game. Firstly Leicester were massively up against it with the scheduling of the game which was blatant cheating and should be banned. I don't care if it is a 'club's tradition' to play on a Friday. It is clear gamesmanship. Making it...

[quote="Old Hob"] Dross clubs like Sarries /quote] Sarries a Dross club????? They are the current English champions who have also beaten Tigers the last 4 times they have played them even putting 50 points on the board at Welford Rd in September. They will also be favourites to make it 5 i...

We will lose 6 for definite and quite probably more and yet Cockerill is not moaning. According to the article, Mark McCall, Sarries coach and Cockers opposite number isn’t 'moaning' either. Nigel Wray, Sarries Chairman is voicing an opinion held not only by many others within English Rugby but als...

This thread started out as a Celtic Referee bashing exercise, then turns into a 'have ago at all things Celtic.' Kop onto yourself Griffin.

On behalf of all the smaller Rugby Unions I wish to apologise for not being big enough to provide more teams for a 'proper league structure.' We should be ashamed of ourselves and formally resign from professional Rugby and take our refs with us. England & France can then have the ERC all to the...

You'll get no truck with this lot Woodstock, despite your well reasoned and articulate post. I've heard ref's get booed before the game even starts at Welford Rd, and they tend to be English refs. I’ve also seen plenty of decisions go Tigers way, never ever an issue on here.

What a ridiculous decision. Big positive from the World Cup should be no more Lawrence and no more Rolland. Was definitely a yellow, but no intent and no damage. Muppet referee. LOL Ironically Lawrence agrees with you yet you call for his head. Also: 'no intent' Are you seriously suggesting that he...

It is the difficulty in distinguishing between highly informed comment on the play and advertising inserts about Waps and Waps players. It is the latter that is irritating. And all ex-players talk rubbish now and again, amateur or pro! But only certain ex players get moaned about on here, however t...

Ironically the great man is 1/2 Italian,BJ me ol' mate. :smt023 You think I didn't already know that? :smt002 Anyway, how's it feel to eventually be on the wrong side of 50? I'm sorry I couldn't make your party. BJ It never even crossed my mind that you wouldn't be aware of that fact, I was playing...

Also what warrants Lorenzo Bruno Nero "Lawrence" Dallaglio, OBE to be a Rugby pundit. Apart from winning 5 Championships, 3 Powergen Cups, 2 Heineken Cups, 1 Parker Pen Cup, 4 6 Nations Championships, 7's World Cup winners medal, World Cup Winners medal, 3 Lions tours and 85 International...

We all know how 'impartiality' is valued on this site :smt043 Also what warrants Lorenzo Bruno Nero "Lawrence" Dallaglio, OBE to be a Rugby pundit. Apart from winning 5 Championships, 3 Powergen Cups, 2 Heineken Cups, 1 Parker Pen Cup, 4 6 Nations Championships, 7's World Cup winners medal...

That is the 4th game on the trot Tigers have been beaten by Saracens. No excuses, despite your protestations, Saracens can quite rightly claim to be the better side.

3 points:

England haven't won the group yet.

After the pool games come quater finals not semi's.

This thread is about Ireland beating Australia.

Apart from that your spot on.
