    Eddie Jones is just all mouth, I don’t buy the “he is doing it to protect his team” rubbish. He just loves been in the limelight

    I don't disagree with you. For better or worse Jones likes being talked about and Williams just couldn't wait to oblige - and that's what irked me.

    It's been reported he was going by the stadium clock which said 80 mins, going by the crowds reaction I'd guess that was correct

    Always check these things with the ref. Could me costly for a lot of teams as it gave a bonus point away but he had a fantastic game and will learn from it.

    Dombrandt, Hughes, and Simmonds are all in incredible form, 2 of them even are capped internationals. they’re not BV but they’re way better than Curry doing a crap Pocock impression.

    thing is, will Eddie take the blow to his pride and admit he made massive mistake, or will he try to ride out the 6 Nations with a completely unbalanced back row?

    Some cheap shots by England. I’d like to see Cowan-Dickie cited.

    Had ollivon stopped protecting the ball any earlier he was getting a knee to the head.

    It was a cowardly, cheap shot.

    Fantastic game to watch.

    Stick brexit up your ho...

    Wait , what... ?

    I thought Nigel was great, well reffed game. English lost their discipline to a younger and really passionate French team. If there had been 10 more minutes of game time, France would have been done as they they were clearly spent by 60 mins.

    hopefully NOT.

    FYP

    England showed yesterday and Ireland on Saturday why you need a balanced backrow

    Scotland backrow had 2 players who made serious metres. Its a glaring issue with the Ireland backrow in 2019 and the issue is still the same.


    England's backrow were poor on the ball carrying.

    Gives some super insights alright, up there with "all credit to the lads".
    A pity Owen Farrell could not have even given a simple part answer to any question in French, out of courtesy.

    The French are a mad rugby team...they just seem to wing it mostly

    Best way to play, hopefully they can push on now. 6 nations is so much better when the French play. Unfortunately havent seen that in a long time
