Utter bollocks that it's "not helping the game". There are record attendances at nearly every match in the 6N. Interest has never been greater. I am going to twickenham this weekend with about 100 people from the club my daughter is at. Looking forward to it. But for the long term growth there has ...

We're so stacked up front it's ridiculous.

Palmer over Saka to start for England please. Sorry Margin but Cole is playing mad atm. If we don't win at the euros Southgate I will give you the red carpet and march you to United. We've got so much talent it's hilarious and we're spitting it out. Also side note - wtf was that with Noni and Jackso...

Fin Baxter getting a lot of column inches by the papers today.

Deserved. The kid is a revelation and will get so much better with more game time.

hi wendigo,good thread. you got sarah bern listed as a loosehead though? Would also chuck mia venner and lili ives campion in there as they both been in training squads. For all the talk about styles,we still actually less dominant than last years 6 nations-less tries,less points against the same 3...

That looks very bad. Yendell?

Fre replacements not accurate enough. Riffoneau chucking pies sees Fra lose 4 consec. lineouts and momentum. Italian 3 quarters making good runs but constantly turned over. Except for now when high ball bottler, D'Inca shows again what a good runner she is with her 2nd try! D'Inca's 2nd try :shock:...

United were awful, again

Never a penalty. fudge off. Sick of refs

Seriously, Wales need to ditch that coaching team. Impressive work from Bemand, on the other hand. Aoife Wafer looks a player. Wales will lose all 5 games. Absolutely toothless in attack, and they just defend in numbers and by spreading out. They are shite. Awful year to pick not playing well either.

Owen Jones? Yeah can't stand the idiot.

Nor can alot of left wingers either.

He's a massive bellend. Self-righteous.

Wendigo7

Interesting. How will the team play without packer?

I'll dare say it, is Packer being phased out to the new gen playing a faster game?

Connie Powell can feel very very hard done by that she's not starting. She's actually one of the players who's really kicked on under Mitchell.

Feyi Waboso looked handy didn't he :shock: There seems to be so much hype around this guy He's good but I'm not sure he's that good? He was doing a lot because his side weren't getting the physical advantage up front. Arguably he did too much, but it's hard to ignore how effective he is in and past...

Don't feel like Leinster are the best coached side currently. Still world class, all over the pitch, but, Leicester were a couple of key knock ons and OHC madness away from being drawing at 36-36 (or some score which was a draw). Leicester are no great shakes, and seeing Leinster go back in the scru...

Norwich and Cov doing you a favour. Coventry doing you both a favour beating Leeds.

Well intercepted

England look a poor outfit compared to a well coached and hungry french side.

Wendigo7

France look a far better team, coaching and technically. Defence looks decent as does the breakdown.

England's ball handling skills are awful. As well as their defence.

It's 175.

most teams in the womens prem play a very traditional english style game,set piece,power based, territory based.and its been very successful for england-few teams ,even NZ as we saw in the autumn can cope with that power. Im not sure this group of players as you say at this point has the skillsets ...

The only players that emerged with any credit from that turgid affair were the two Arsenal CBs and Rice Doku was absolutely shocking at times today, how he gets a game in a Pep side having such a poor first touch and an inability to cross is beyond me Haaland was absolutely bollocks. I know people ...

Agreed on Muir, and frankly Roebuck, neither should be in the england squad at all. Were they going to a capture selection? Do they qualify for Scotland? Well, Roebuck does, but even then I think Scotland have enough depth that it doesn't really matter. Very confusing selection in hindsight. I supp...

They were unbelievably bad.

They are poorly poorly coached. A bit of luck, a smidgeon the ball is connected differently in finishing situations and brentford must hit 5 or 6 easily. So unlucky not to win.

Finger fracture. Think we'll see more of Greyson then and maybe Scarratt with more minutes?

Apart from McDougall are there any centres worth looking at? The exeter girl seemed talented.

RodneyRegis wrote: ↑Sat Mar 30, 2024 6:40 pm Just embarrassing. In many ways worse than last week. 28 points in 17 minutes apparently. 2 points needlessly gifted.

Something absolutely reeks at Quins right now. No idea what it is tho.

The defensive structure is pants. All over the pitch.

Lots to like from the Wales game. Commentary and reffing left a whole lot to be desired. The amount of times the wales scrum had Callender detaching and already going after our 9 and not getting pinged was f**king silly. Kildunne, Galligan and the whole team in general played very well. Bit concerne...

At one point sleightholme held off a counter ruck on his own, which might well have been a try saver. He's bloody strong, looks for work, gets his hands dirty, scores oodles of tries. Yes it's crazy that Daly is there ahead of him but to be quite frank same goes for manny - sure he's played well bu...

I need to watch tonight I saw the score. Were they good to watch? We have new pathways now to better develop players at a younger age which is good. Not really good to watch, but worth watching if you like age group rugby. Camera work could have been ... better. And with a score like that it was a ...
