Fucking fair play to the Aussies today. Astonishing second half performance. Thoroughly deserved the win.

Wasn’t a good day for the NH, Wales were so close all the games were good

Fucking gutted. I’ve got a ticket for the England v New Zealand game this afternoon that I can no longer use.

Anyone want it? Free to a good home.

You’ll need to download the Twickenham app so I can transfer it to you, and that will involve us both revealing our real identities to each other - which will probably put some of you off the idea 😂

    vinnyt77 should be a good game , how do call it? Off to the Ireland match later

        Heno Head says New Zealand. Reports of their death have been greatly exaggerated IMO. I think it’ll be close - maybe 5-8 points in it.

        I think Jones has just about picked the right team for the game, bar the Farrell / Smith axis at 10/12. I’d have Slade in there for sure. Otherwise, it’s combative all over the park, back 3 is my preferred one for England, I like the inclusion of Van Poortvliet from the off, and the 6/⅞ combo looks well balanced.

        How you feelin about Australia?

            vinnyt77 bar Will Skelton I think we are better in every position,don’t like when we are favourites cause Australia have been good one week bad the next but I think we will have to much for them, rather they didn’t play Sexton in order to develop more depth at out halve

                vinnyt77 I kinda feel Eddie is done kinda the Mourhino/ Conte factor great for a while then become stale

                    Heno Get used to it mate. You’re gonna be favourites in pretty much every game you play between now and the World Cup! Sat really uncomfortably with me in the lead up to the 2003 World Cup, and that ended up ok… 😉

                    Heno Yeah - wouldn’t have been disappointed if he’d gone after the 2019 World Cup. As it is, I think he’s the only option for the ’23 RWC, but hopefully then on his way.

                          vinnyt77 france are better than us. pretty sure we will show up today though

                              baggers44 France look really good have a great mix of power and flair also any team with Shawn Edwards do be really well set up.

                                vinnyt77 at this stage yeah I wonder will they get Scotty Robinson for after or Baxter ?

                                    Heno Robinson for me. Love the way he sets his teams up.

                                    Ticket’s gone by the way, for anyone that was thinking about it…

                                    • Heno replied to this.

                                        vinnyt77 yeah he’s quality was hoping Leinster would get him

                                          Off to Twickers shortly.

                                          Is hospo too.

                                          We go again.

                                            Smallman1 Enjoy mate. Gutted not to be there. Have wanted to be at an England / New Zealand game as long as I’ve played/watched rugby…

                                              Smallman1 PS - ‘hospo’ might just be the worst of your dictionary of shit phrases/words.

                                                Anybody else fuming when we kicked it out to finish the game rather than have another go at them? Terrible attitude for a professional sportsman.

                                                  Amps Yes. Gutless. Most of the excuses I saw were that the ref was so inconsistent, that he could easily penalise England, and let New Zealand win the game. Don’t buy that at all…

                                                  All this said, England were by far the poorer team for 68 minutes. An excellent finish, and a draw shouldn’t detract from their failings of the first 3/4s of the match.
