Re: Jeremy Guscott v Manu Tuilagi - who was better?
Tuilagi was injured too much to challenge Guscott I reckon. Both great players though.

I seem to recall that Irish trainers get some sort of tax break which makes the playing field somewhat slanted. Is that right?

If Scotland and Ireland can continue to poach players from the likes of England, NZ and SA then they will continue to do well. They have poached far more effectively than Wales and the results speak for themselves.

Or, they are all wearing human looking skin suit...

Re: **OFFICIAL** English Rugby Thread
Difference for England yesterday was our pace. Pace to get ball away from breakdown, pace to pressurise in defence, pace of our backs and the search for outside space. We can improve enormously but this is the way to go.
