If England break the World Record,where would you rate team?

There is good chance England will equal the World record by the end of the 6 nations , where would it go down in the pantheon of great teams?

Re: France vs. New Zealand: Official Match Thread

Lots of good things from the Fr but i still feel their locks lack the aggression to go with a good backrow. 9 and 10 were better and the centres looked sharper.

Re: France vs. New Zealand: Official Match Thread

From what I saw of the FR against the Wobs, the AB will smash them. The 9, 10 pairing look like they have been on a Mcdonalds diet, and the wings are defensively very flaky.

The Fr 9 and 10 are slow and will get mullered by the AB`s. The Fr locks lack grunt and power to trouble the AB`s, I see an AB win by 30 points.

Re: England v Australia - RUGBY LEAGUE

I haven't seen an International game of RL since the days of Ellery Hanley and it just seems that there are too many players on the field. They need to reduce the players to either 10 or 11 and offer more points if they are scored before they are scored before the 4th tackle.

To be fair, Plisson is so poor these days that exposing him to international rugby was not necessarily a good thing for his sake.

He will if he stays fit, in the 2000`s Ngam was also very quick but didn't last long. SA have to be very careful with him and hope that luck stays with him and he avoids serious injuries.

From what I have received of Tana this year, he is desperate to show how clever he is( the bizarre resting of players after one game) and hence the Blues will be shit next year as they were this year.
