Re: The Official and ONLY England v Ireland Match Thread

Can we do away with this bonus point malarkey now, please? Wouldn’t it be great if England and Ireland were level pegging going into the last round with Scotland still able to get share of the spoils? As it is Ireland are still on course despite a major derailment. Fair play to them for the big wins...

Re: Italy OUT

How about Italy run a “rest of Europe” team, free to pick a few exceptional players qualified for other European countries but not Italy? Like a sort of Euro baa-baas?

Re: Congrats to Gauzere

He’s just trying to keep his job. Jutge (sp?) who runs IRB refereeing standards has already said he got wrong, so Gauzere is just publicly agreeing with his boss.
