mikeyp102 Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 (edited) England switched off second half having being in control at half time. Enough to get through, and let’s be honest we the France SA game will wear both teams out Edited October 15, 2023 by mikeyp102 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But really feel this win will cement the RFUs position on Borthwick and lock him in for the next 4 years. I can't deal with English rugby being awful and Southgate ruining football at the same time. they won't look on the results alone. it definitely gets him the 6 nations, but another disappointing display and he'll be in trouble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 (edited) Surely Ireland will approach ROG despite how well Farrell has done. Then surely England will go for Farrell Edited October 15, 2023 by mikeyp102 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All QF are so evenly matched that have they demanded each team go to the well. SF rugby anything could happen, despite the clear domination in certain teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepyvillian Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 Don't think I've seen a better 40 minutes of pulsating rugby than what was just served up. Two teams refusing to give a single inch in the psychological battle, never mind the physical battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepyvillian Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 Apparently, France carried the ball over the gain - line 42 times and South Africa made 80 tackles. Get your head round that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
