    If France don't implode in the dressing room with internal politics they will do very well.
    If england could gel they would be outstanding I cannot put my finger on why they just go all headless chicken on game day Farrell was only notable yesterday by his handling game oh wait he kicked nearly every ball. At least the opposite no kept hishead on with no late body charges. Cannot say Farrell tackles

    Farrell is hard to like if you aren’t English.

    Ferocious competitor and unquestionable a super player, probably a top guy too, but not easy to like for some reason.

    England do gel, the issue is they seem to have route 1, and...er....route 1 unless it’s in the counter.

    A miss firing England winning the championship can’t be that bad, but you owe the jocks for doing France, and France for doing Ireland.

  3. Surely you can say that about nearly all sporting competitions. I just don’t get it, England never win anything on their own merit :thinking:

    Ok, Wales won last years grandslam by playing to the absoloute maximum of their potential, same for when we were 3 point off in the World Cup semi.

    Have England been near the potential they showed against the All Blacks last year?

    Had the jocks not scalped France England would have come a fairly distant 2nd to a French team on the rise.

    I don’t believe they deserve full praise, that is reserved for the All Black performance.

    Please replace the word England with the word Ireland last year.

    They don't fire when they need too the players the rfu have at their finger tips we should be world class. The current team should have put 50 past Italy on Saturday. Is it a complacency thing?
