I was going to go looking for that post. You saved me the bother.

Hard luck Shan.

Big match in 2 weeks. I think Ireland need a win and a point more than England to secure the title.

A record 11 straight wins is up for grabs too.

:D Good stuff.

Well done to Scotland. Deserved their win. England are carrying at least half a pack who are not good enough. Hartley and Cole not up to this standard. Lawes probably the most overrated player in living memory as I've often said and whatever he is he is not a backrower. Robshaw the best of the England backrow says everything. Their backs were no great shakes either, with the exception of Farrell.

I recall us losing a seemingly unlosable game to Scotland in the past so I'm not banking the championship just yet, never mind the Grand Slam.

However we should slam it now. It would be a real failure to let it slip away.

Would like to see if we can convert big stu to wing. Big stu and stockcube as 2 big powerful wingers would be interesting. Besides it would suit big stu having no one outside him not to pass too....

Remember GLU came through as a 12 first and he didn’t do too bad on wing did he not.

One of the most satisfying days of international rugby for some time.
Fantastic to see Stockdale with eight tries in seven games.
Below that, it's a shame Ulster couldn't make it a hat trick.
I'm liking the Stockdale / McCloskey wing partnership idea. They could do a lot of damage.

Having said that, lose at Twickers and the Championship will be as hollow as most of theirs.

I'd take that win over the 6N title all year long.

So the same as last year when Fast Eddie and England were denied a GS in Dublin.

Utter twaddle, pathetic effort from the Louuuuuuudth poser, he could have had a proper gurn like Shinnerboots in Caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaadiff.

I suppose you had a tear in your eye as well when Bonnie Scotland trounced your beloved England you west Brit ballix? Up yer English hole. :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

One of the great sights in sport, an English team brimful of Warren Gatland and a supplement of chaps from the Commonwealth getting bate out the gate by a team that they have no respect for.

Does anyone know if Half-Jap Eddie has signed Les Kiss as defence coach? Huge Jones strode through them swatting them aside like little Lionelbastards. Oh, how I laughed. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Downside, it helps the fu@king paddies.

Upside, 2 decent games to watch, unlike Oireland's usual turgid muck.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

The famous "Goodbye to Croke Park game", DumbPaddyFucks "we want to put on a show to thank the GAA", arseholes the GAA were more than happy with the millions in the bank and had not a solitary shyte to give about a rugby match, terroristbastards.
