Six Nations tomorrow........

Agree the ref spoilt potentially a cracker of a game but lack of English discipline cost them the match.
On a separate note what is clear is that the Saracen players are affected by not playing top flight rugby. Even Itoje was lucky not to be sin binned. The championship is lost for England and now is the time to bring in some different players. Dombrandt and Smith from Quinn’s and Skinner from Exeter would be my first start.
Simmonds not Skinner Old Boy.
 
Not really she’s from Myrthr Tidfyl or however you spell it which imho is the absolute a hole of Wales. Went once and it was like going back to lord of the rings. Of course she did the sensible thing and moved to Blackpool. Forever doomed 😂
No Mate, there are some even shitier places than Merthyr in Wales, believe me.
 
I would normally look forward to this but I’ll have to miss the start. If I see them grovelling about on their knees again I’ll switch it off.
 
I've noticed a very strong anti French attitude amongst some of the posters on this thread. To be honest it surprised me.

I wonder if given a choice would the most ardent anti French prefer to win today or beat Ireland?

I don't buy into this "watching them taking the knee has turned me off rugby" rubbish by the way, deep down the guys using it as an excuse to be outraged know it wouldn't even get a mention if England were playing well. It's sad really that the old bad loser mentality is still present in some of the old codgers, sad but not unexpected.

Anyway let's hope it's an exciting game, best of luck to both teams, it could be a thriller.

20-1 for a draw looks like good odds, I'll wager a couple of Euro on that.

What are Euro's..... :tiphat:
 
I really don't understand what people's problem with this is.

It mimics genuflection to BLM as adopted by some police forces.

As Billy Vinopola rightly observes: BLM is anti-Christian, marxist, etc. he refuses to take the knee because he does not agree with their philosophy.

All other teams manage to observe and endorse an anti-racist position by standing solemnly.

The kneeling is a hugely problematic step beyond affirming any anti-racist stance.

It’s a bit like if they decided to goose step and nazi salute for some professed good cause. You might think there were some very uncomfortable associations with those actions, no matter what they said it was for.

Kneeling began in response to the BLM riots, it was the action of a lot of the BLM-supporting sportsmen, many teams also put BLM on their shirts when they adopted kneeling - it is inextricably associated with BLM. Which is an anti-western essentially communist organisation. And therefore they are scumbags in the eyes of many. Get off your knees.
