Should be a cracker Ireland v England on Saturday. Ireland are awesome these days, but hope England raise their game ? So I'll go to the Gillingham game and go somewhere and watch the rugby. Come on England !
Sorry mate! C'MON IRELAND!Should be a cracker Ireland v England on Saturday. Ireland are awesome these days, but hope England raise their game ? So I'll go to the Gillingham game and go somewhere and watch the rugby. Come on England !
No deals! :happy:I 'm very much hoping we put up a backstop.
Teresa's dad? No ta!No deal? Not even if it is Johnny May's?
Just back in bit pissed, England were great. Pity Coventry City were not the same.Had a great day thoughUnhappy that Ireland lost but credit to England. They took some great chances really well. I think Ireland just didn't play to their usual plans, apart from the usual long kicks into the corner, which just didn't come off today. After that performance by England, I have to tip them to at least take the Six Nations, if not, the Grand Slam.

Yep, I agree - luck of the Irish!Ireland get 2 national anthems a game, usually the final game on St Paddy’s and a cult hero retiring every year. There’s luck of the Irish and there’s taking the piss
Yep, I agree - luck of the Irish!
They can't be played on St Patrick's day every year. It only falls on a Saturday every 6 or 7 years (depending on leap years).Countless tournaments won on points difference, St Paddy’s Day finales every year...

You would want Rugby played in the Summer ? Think what it was like last year. Rugby is a Winter time game that would change for the worse if played in hot conditions.I was exaggerating but I can remember more than 1 finale on that day in the last 6 years. Would rather the tourney be moved to May/June and Ireland stripped of 1 national anthem

Ireland seem to be the only nation that respects the kicker - always impressed at the total silence.
Nope, admittedly watched on TV and it maybe it's different in the ground.Is this a joke?
Great game though, best I've seen England play for ages. Massive crunching tackles and amazing line speed just disrupted everything Ireland did - something the Irish were always good at - making it difficult for teams to settle into a forward momentum. Ireland seem to be the only nation that respects the kicker - always impressed at the total silence.
Amuses me now how you can qualify for the 6 nations as a player - France had a South African who could be picked because he lived there. I reckon I could qualify for selection for Ireland because I like a Guinness or France because I like a croissant. It used to be tenuous links to parents and grandparents but I think anything goes these days.
I heard loud whistling before just about every kick to the posts. It wasn't probably more than one or two people but certainly heard it on tv.Nope, admittedly watched on TV and it maybe it's different in the ground.
Funnily enough a lot of players say that they find the silence a bit unnerving. Having the constant background din of the crowd is something they are always used to and this sudden focus on them as the kicker can be a bit more pressure.
It is and be surprised if we win by that margin, but I liked the odds !Wow! That is some margin.
Would say 15-20 myself.
Just had a few quid bet on England winning today over France by a margin of 36-40 if correct I pick up £78.00
You wait the French will play brilliantly !
