I am really excited for him to get out there. Once he is out there he is going to do what he does," said May. All he has to do is do what he does in training, just go out there and be yourself.

I love May

Way more first choice players starting than I expected

Nice, RFU did a similar thing a few weeks ago

On a lighter note, how pathetically needy was Poites audition for the world cup final when overturning the Irish try? Really milked it for all the air time he could get. Yes we can all see he took the man in the air, just get on with it. My real issue with him is he asks the teams to stabilise at t...

Any chance Pichot opening his mouth and not making a fool of himself?

I actually liked the prequels, weren't perfect but with Episode 3 they were getting on track. Phantom Menace was ok, it felt like a Star Wars film. A bunch of characters going on an adventure together and accomplishing something. It wasn't overflowing with CGI like 2 and 3 were and it didn't have H...

Can't wait for this. Loved Force Awakend, loved The Last Jedi.

Yes. Me too. And I remember him dropping on a ball for a turnover. Not a steal but aware and welcome.

Stripped the ball off Liam Williams too

You've got 6 back 3 players and no proper full back. Surely Watson, Nowell, Thocka, May gives you enough wing cover that Brown is the better bet over Rory? Alex Lowe from the Times mentioned that Eddie's been obsessed with Milner-Skudder's emergence at the last world cup and sees similar potential ...

RWC squad announced in half an hour on Sky Sports.

Ben Youngs talking about how he prefers Eddie's call of announcing it early, but then he would do he's nailed on I guess

RDR2 is one of the best games I've ever played. Stunning to look at, really compelling storytelling, great voice acting, fun missions, but most of all the openworld design was just incredible. The world felt so alive. I get it when people say they were bored or the controls were clunky (they definit...

Is it 10 new films/tv shows in 2020/2021 alone? x( Isn't anyone sick of this superhero thing yet? Never understood why 4 Star Wars films in 4 years is "too much" but 20 Marvel films in 10 years, with tons more to come, is absolutely fine. You are comparing a genre to a franchise.

Star Wars doesn't need fixing, its toxic, entitled fandom does. Loved 7 and 8 and can't wait for 9. Which is only a portion of its fandom. I know lots of people who like 8 but don't argue on forums and don't have Youtube accounts where they make multiple videos whining like babies. Absolutely, I sh...

Rude thing to say about Dan Cole

Wonder if he was inspired by Gareth Thomas

Genge certainly likes his static huge hand offs. While he chews gum and tries to look all cool. Might be time to retire the Tigers/Youngs old school mafia spirit. Could Leicester go down this year? I would prefer Bristol to go, but if between Tigers and Newcastle, I think it important that there is ...

I'm actually disappointed the Scots are dropping like flies. Would have been sweeter to face their first choice team.

Eddie trolling again

“Italy is a bit of an unknown quantity but when Conor allows them to play rugby they play well."

I might put a tenner on Bath to be relegated. Especially having seen the Newcastle run in compared to Bath’s horrible one.

I imagine Care will get recalled to the World Cup squad like Cole, Brown etc. Otherwise it's a bit scary going into the tournament with Youngs, and (at most) 5 or 6 cap Robson behind him.

Not a Mass Effect fan? Whatever about 3, which I really enjoyed, 2 was excellent. Hasn't been a great few years for PC gaming to be honest. I loved 3 too, I even enjoyed Andromeda for the most part. Didn't deserve all the abuse. Also, Anthem hasn't been "drudging around for 6 years", they revealed ...

Mentioned above but Irish discipline really is stunning. I think they had only given away 1 penalty until 55ish minutes. Very tough to play against and something England need to emulate, still a few very soft penalties yesterday, even factorig in that I don’t think the yellow was justified at all. ...

matta25

Slade gives you more tactical options, JJ more attacking threats to make defenders second guess themselves. Sometimes, like against Ireland yesterday, you want the former, sometimes, like against Scotland, the latter should work at least as well I think it's way too early to be talking about Slade ...

matta25

All the more impressive considering Garces penalised Ireland, what 3 times in 80 minutes? Did they get a single turnover on us? Not even one choke tackle, in Dublin!

The 3-0 Aussie whitewash was great, Daly nicking the win in Cardiff a couple years ago was

Quick update on Anthem - it felt like a turd to play until I worked out what it was doing under the hood and set the process priority to "high" in the task manager. Buttery smooth now, a completely different experience. :thumbup: RDR2 isn't really doing it for me I must say. Yeah the production val...

Wow. I didn't think that would happen Ireland are the best side in the world and that was stunning. D was huge, Wilson, Slade and Manu's speed up was sensational. Amazing test- commiserations Ireland- takes two great sides to make a game of that quality . That's the most important. My son was not d...

Well played Ireland, cracking match. Just beaten by the better team Well played? We played shite. Fair play to England but don’t try to patronise us, we’re a better team than we showed today.
