Re: Walsh gooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnneee ...

Are you suggesting that the England team management have no right to question interpretations to ensure they get things sorted next time?
All teams have that avenue open to them, but as The Sun God pointed out - when the margin is 27 points then the done thing is not to do so.

Re: **OFFICIAL** English Rugby Thread

it is this sort of arrogance and tunnel vision stemming from quins' success that has led you to bigging up any and all quins players as potential england quality
Out of interest, which players has he bigged-up?

Ashton actually really wasn't that bad yesterday and he was sent to run off poor ball. We're making a scapegoat out of him for the sake of it.

1x metre gained

2x tackles made

2x penalties given away

Worried about what happens if one of the back three gets injured on the weekend. We lack cover. Tuilagi on the wing. A position he hasn't played in years? Against the Irish in Dublin? When he played on the wing I think he just ran over people. Not so easy in the seniors http://i240.photobucket.com/...

While not as exciting a prospect as Billy V, I wouldn't call it depressing. Waldrom is a good grafter and great with ball in hand.
