Otherwise, crap. But hey, his replacement is... Daly.

He's having a crap debut, but it's tough going when everyone around you has forgotten to turn up too.

Would make a good full-time pundit tbh. Better than Monye at least.

Young’s is the worst .
Tbf the only players not awful today are Marler, Lawes, ford and May.

George, Daly, Joseph and Underhill have only been bad, tbf

Everyone's poor, but Young's is making a lot of them look even worse than they are.

Double

Someone f**king shoot Ben Youngs, it's the only way we're getting him out of that shirt

Double

How can everyone in the world see how shit youngs is except Jones?

Double

Both centres broken.

Double

Nige is missing so much from both sides, should've retired at the end of last season.

Double

Wow, if you pick a flanker at 8 and a screaming retard at 9 you can real shit up even the most dominant scrum, who would've thought.

Double

The attempts to celebrate afterwards too

Double

Furbank grew into that Lyon game nicely after the opening 10 mins, though. Scored a lovely try too. I think if France get conned into kicking long to him all game they'll be making a mistake. He compares well with Daly, at least. Daly as the last defender against that backline doesn't bear thinking ...

Hell of a first cap for one of those two. Especially if it's furbank at fullback.

No, he's the one from Saracens

Tackle of the season by Reinach.

So we're not being cautious about going for the head now?

Double

That's not close to a red card... the first contact is arm to chest. Completely ridiculous refereeing.

Double

Top marks for entertainment at least

Saint wrote:What has happened to our lineout

Think our first lineout caller is Lawes, second is Ribbans and third is Moon.

Double

It's sad, but Francis can't carry on playing rugby.

I think I disagree with everyone about Ludlam. Decent player, Saints standout forward this season so I don't know where one of you got the impression that he can't make the squad. Never got the first impression about him being 'dumb' either, and he's got some decent passing and offloading play. The...

Simmonds looked good yesterday, impressed last time he had the shirt for England too. Now that England have more carrying in the flankers and front row, having a smaller player at 8 isn't such an issue to my mind. Do we have more carrying in loose forward positions now? And do we have more carrying...

Double

I'm sure we'll see plenty of Leinster whining about Saracens being able to rest all of their first team players in a meaningless domestic fixture in the weeks before the quarter final.

Billy V looked decent in the two minutes before he got injured.

JM2K6 wrote:Who do we want to win to help out Saints and Glaws?

Saints go through if Saracens don't get 5. Glaws probably need Saracens to get fewer points than they do.

Double

What do we think, will Sarries be properly up for this match and come steaming out of the gate, or are they just going to be demoralised and flat?

Double

Despite the headline, reads more like he's ruling out signing anyone to join for this season. I'd be surprised if Kpoku and Earl weren't somewhere on Boyd's wishlist for those two or three spots next year.

Double

Fark me imagine being Elliot Daly? The wasps squad must be pissing themselves. fudge him. I still have a fair amount of sympathy for the players. In reality, they're guys just trying to do a job with a career span of about 10 years (if they're lucky), a lot of them with young families. If I was in ...

Daly was the point when they gave up even pretending.

Probably not a great deal, given that Jersey's facilities could charitably be described as a garden shed with a large lawn.

This ref is shite. Should have been a penalty at the end there for deliberately knocking that into touch.

Hutchinson is actually a really weak defender, I like his play but I think he'll be a liability at international level.
Did he play 12 or 13?

Came on as replacement at 12.

They look tasty enough.

Not yet mathematically, need any of Ulster to lose, or Saracens or Gloucester to not get 5 points.

Double

French commentators having a strop and pick a Lyon player for man of the match.

Ludlam, for my money, with an honourable mention to Lawes.

Double

Furbank got over his nerves eventually, then. I'd start him in the 6 nations, his defensive play is miles ahead of Daly and he can be as deadly in attack.

French TV director doing their best to ruin another game.
