RunRickyRun 606 Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 A win's a win but we were terrible. Luckily England were worse. I still don't understand why Flood is an international fly half - O'Gara had a shocker but still looked better. Andy Goode has far more guile and could have won it for England at the death.

TheSufferingVilla 42 Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 I'll take the result but terrible, terrible game could Ireland be the shittiest team to win the Grand Slam? Or will the equally shit Wales grab the honour? Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ricardomeister Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Lets face it all the teams in this year's championship are average....except Scotland and Italy who are as rubbish as they usually are. England are improving slowly but they still have a long way to go. I thought Vickery was very unlucky to be sin binned as the Irish players did the same thing more than once but got away with it. Care was an idiot. Although I acknowledge that Cristiano O'Driscoll was hurt by Flutey, his dive into Armitage and subsquent rolling on the floor was rather pathetic imo. It looks like Ireland or Wales will win the title but everyone knows they are both mediocre. I am encouraged by England as our aim is building towards the next world cup as at least we are capable of mounting a challenge. We have at least performed at the World Cup on several occasions, unlike Wales, Ireland and Scotland who have never achieved anything at the top level. Link to post Share on other sites
Qwpzxjor1 518 Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 This Six Nations has been the lowest standard of Rugby I've seen in a Six/Five Nations for a long time. No team particularly looks good enough to win it. Link to post Share on other sites
CastleBromVilla 17 Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Go to BBC Sport, look at Martin Johnson's reaction to the Danny Care sinbin. It show's him in the crowd when he gets shown a yellow, goes mental and punches something in front of him! Link to post Share on other sites

VillaEire 30 Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Terrible game but Ireland nearly paid for ROG's poor kicking. Delighted to see Wales lose - that will put them back in their box a bit Link to post Share on other sites
Juju 105 Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 I wonder how many RBS staff could have been properly paid this month to reward them adequately for the job they did last year, for the cost of the sports sponsorship. Bastards. Link to post Share on other sites
villamark 9 Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 14-13 ireland win it was quite an even affair but england playing with a man less for 20 minutes cost us the game,i cant help but think the refs when england play are far to critical on our players for any foul i seen the irish hands holding on/hands in the ruck plenty and never was it a penalty,but when england do it its like sin bin straight out.

Gringo 3 Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Agreed - both wales and ireland will have their eye on next saturday. But scotland are a bit more of a danger than the italians. Link to post Share on other sites
