RED Card (CANCELLED) and lack of such in Melbourne

AS someone who Coached youths Rugby. I Agree with Red Card for French Player ( Correct decision, as one who has to Explain to Parents). Why did AusTralian player (Koroibete) for an equally bad offence not get Red in Melbourne, tackeling a player through 90 degrees and landing him on his head, inexpl...

Re: Your World XV right before these Autumn internationals

I think Furlong has been the best tighthead all year, I also feel that leaving Murray out is a huge omission on any team in twelve months he has finished on the winning team against the AB's twice scoring in both games, granted I am taking a liberty in including Nov 2016 in that twelve months.

Re: Teo gone, Kruis gone, O Mahoney gone

On hearing this selection,my immediate reaction was- Lions throwing away the second test and series by picking an obviously non match fit Warburton ( Captain Invisable will become even more invisable as he tries to catch his breath at every break in play).

Re: Garland and Howley OUT

Think how much worse it could have been if Tipuric was not on the pitch as will be the case when Captain Invisable(Warburton) is playing, Howley instructions to his Scrum halves seems to be under no Circumstance pass the Ball to Sexton and let him run the game, only pass as a last option

England should win this, not because of home advantage but injuries and momentum. I believe everybody is overplaying home advantage, England are probably better away from Twickenham, they are unbeaten in Cardiff since 2012!
