  • Cant complain about that performance. Defensively very good today and completely deserved the win.

    A most reassuring and confidence building performance at precisely the right time, especially given that we haven’t exactly set the world on fire thus far.

    No good to you, but Allsop Arms if you're going from Marylebone, or even better Clive has said the Sports Bar & Grill.

    I actually did have an Indian takeaway last night. I did fear the Madras would make a reappearance when it was 17-16.

    This year, we've beaten Australia every time they've selected a team without Steve Smith in it

    Eddie Jones was correct. 
    With the French games cancelled, England had the extra rest and the work done on the training ground covered all options.
    Slade was the only gamble but after looking rusty at first his run and kick for May's 2nd try was magic. 
    No weak links today and very few errors.
    Australia tried to win with their running game but the England squad to a man did their job. To hit back at 17-16 was superb.

    This squad unlike the WC winning England side are still improving, where the Martin Johnson side had reached their peak in that final.

    England will have to improve again to win  a semi final against the kiwis.

    It feels to me like the Semi-Final next week is effectively the final!

    Yes we can - Ireland are poor.

    I'm not saying we will beat the All Blacks, but we most certainly can.

    We can

    BUT we won't 
  • Good football skills there, hopefully we'll score with a similar breakaway this afternoon!

    Kiwis way too strong for Ireland but I think we will give  them more of a game

    We’ve been the architects of our own downfall.
    You can’t be making these kind of errors against the Kiwis and expect to get anything from the game.
    Not turned up today.
    We need to show a bit of pride second half.
    COYBIG!

    Cracking start to the Wales France game - 3 tries already in the opening 12 mins. 12-7 to France.
