pink_triangle Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 When was the last time England finished in the bottom 2? I’m thinking it hasn’t happened in the 6 nations era. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zero000 Posted February 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 England have to be the favourites after that performance. Absolutely dominated Ireland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nal Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 The over confidence all week here was mental. It was as if we were playing Italy. England by far the better team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DareToDibble Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 If England keep up that level of performance all tournament they will absolutely walk it. Their line speed is frightening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomThomDrum Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 England’s discipline was unreal. Not a sexy part of the game to comment on but very noticeable from my POV. Also Irelands errors and mistakes were occurring way too often. At times it was like watching Ireland in the 90s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pink_triangle Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 We are playing the greatest Welsh side ever. That's what we are hearing, we'll take it at face value," said Jones. I honestly haven’t heard anyone claim that, it would be a strange thing to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DareToDibble Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 Eddie Jones has always done stuff like that. Make a comment to wind up the opposition or try to get under their skin. Great coach but a bit of a knob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DareToDibble Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 I was speaking to one of my mates Saturday night who said that it's possible Wales could do the grand slam but England win the championship due to bonus points. Absolutley mental if true. Surely the grand slam should give you 5 bonus points to avoid that happening!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DareToDibble Posted March 18, 2019 Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 I managed to get a ticket to the Principality on Saturday. I've seen us win the Grand Slam before but never been in the stadium for it. The atmosphere was incredible and the early try definitely settled some nerves. Despite being up 7-0 (I think) at the time that tackle by Hadleigh Parkes was incredible. Had Ireland scored that it could have been a very different game. Warren Gatland being the only coach to ever win 3 Grand Slams is the perfect way for him to sign off from the Six Nations, too. He's been incredible for Welsh rugby.
