Why not? I think Uruguay denying France one is a fantastic achievement!

Dire. Handling appalling.
Leicester Tigers 1995-
Nottingham 1995-2000
Swansea (Whites) 1988-95
A game played on grass in the open air by teams of XV.

It’s offending on the eyeballs! Turgid,rehearsed drivel
Right from KO, we had momentum, they were going backwards at a rate of knots, we won a 5 yd penalty infront of posts, why not take a scrum, push them over, we take 3 points, momentum lost, Japan now pressing us into mistakes.
SCW agrees!

Its OK kicking them out but who do you bring in, who wants to play this turgid style of kicking rugby, rugby, sorry thats an insult, its football, kick kick kick.

These highlights are hilarious! How embarrassing for an elite side. I had the clowns music at the circus in my head in the background :smt005

one thing is for certain, I'm grateful for everything Steve did here but I'm relieved he's no longer our HC

I actually think you have plenty of talent and depth but Steve is your problem. I’ll explain more after the game.
