But then you're just giving Farrell 7 more minutes to foul it up again! 🤣🤣
the Ego needs to be stripped of the captaincy and kicking duties handed to Ford
Won't happen, on ITV woodentop and Co are saying Ford/Farrell is 'done' and Smith is the key....even trying to make out that Smith's jog across field is the only reason Care scored his try a planned Quins move. It is vomit inducing stuff.
I'm all for trying that with Freddie at 14, anything is better than repeating the same old stuff all the time, play how we have been Fiji will route us next week

They played for the same team. George Ford a talent wasted by England. Owen Farrell promoted beyond his ability.

If I was defending a one point lead with 2 mins 20 secs left on the clock, I am not sure I would have kicked possession away...and then do it again a bit later! :smt044

Never heard the phrase ‘Pole Turtle’ before but I shall certainly use it again now I know what it means! 😂😂😂

I am watching the TV and wonder if anyone can tell the name of the sport.

Fifteen men in a side running with the ball and passing it to score something called a "try".

It looks rather good, indeed I could become a fan. It looks most exciting.

Does England have a team?

Looked a bit of crossing before the Irish try, chap in the blue scrum cap helped create the gap he ran through, just the bump happened a bit before he darted through
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

So they crossed off Chessum’s second try for propelling himself on the ground but completely ignored the lack of arms in the tackle that stopped him.

Scotland needed to take those 3s. They've got the wrong mindset, imho.

Cmon Ireland this is how to play rugby 🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮
I think you enjoy the game more if you don't know the rules. Anyway, you're on the same wavelength as the referees.

How is the ref still on the field? Deliberate knock on if ever I saw one.
