Wasnt there rumours of yer man Connor off the panel on RTE taking over? He's director at Harlequins or something I think...

That's right, he's meant to be highly rated as a coach. Think he already said he wanted to stay with Harlequins though. I suppose he's young enough to be confident he'll be able to get the job at some point in the future, no rush for him to take it now.
 
Kidney out please.

We've shown up for 40 minutes this Tournament and that was against Wales. France will beat Scotland tomorrow and then this failure can be complete.

Oh well at least Liverpool and City lost, gives me some cheer.
 
Don't take Connor please.

Did anyone catch that Wales team entrance? Blimey.

Not totally sure about that. So many handling errors and penalties from two experienced teams. Keep it at 9-3 until the 80th minute means the English will win...:)

Ha, maybe quality was the wrong word. I'm not taking my eyes off it though
 
All over, Wales deserve the championship. Only that poor first half against Ireland cost them the slam.
 
Wales world cup final though tbf. Just another game to England, thus why bottling grand slams is common to them....isn't this the 5th time since 99? -_-
 
Hows that for a fecking pasting? Get. In. There. :devil:

Come back when you're ready In-ger-land.
 
Have Wales caught up with England now in terms of 6 nations, 5 nations and home nations?
 
Don't think England bottled it exactly, Wales are a far better team. England don't have half the skill and flair the Welsh do.
 
Poor tournament but ended well, great performance from Wales, England have to be disappointed though.

Hopefully all the faux-rugby fans spamming my newsfeed will feck off now, was becoming unbearable.

You don't think Wales have a better team? They have far, far more creativity than England. If England were going to win today they needed to take the lead and grind away Welsh confidence. Once Wales went ahead England didn't look like they had enough imagination to break them down, whereas Wales were able to cut England apart. England are a good team and if they had made less errors in the first half and had taken the lead the game might've been different. That doesn't disguise the fact that Wales are the better team though.
 
Not so sure about that, for me it was experience today and very clinical play, coupled with some definite English bottling. I think the England side will learn from it though and have a very good WC.

Wales have a very, very good side, undeniably. In the last 3 or so years they've been brilliant. They don't totally outclass the up and coming English though, as you're putting it Sully.
 
I actually think it was the Welsh forwards that won it, totally destroyed the English scrum with the refs help and denied the English any foothold or confidence. They were huge and you could say it was because the English lack creativity, but I think that's a disservice to both England and the Welsh forwards.
