Really enjoyable stuff so far

ballygowan1 · 25-01-2013 07:55PM

Terrible stadium for an international though

ballygowan1 · 25-01-2013 07:56PM

The inform 8 in Ireland is playing tonight and he is going well

thomond2006 · 25-01-2013 07:58PM

two penalties in a minute from Toner

duckysauce · 25-01-2013 07:58PM

toner 2 penos in a row

Swan Curry · 25-01-2013 07:59PM

What was that second penalty for?

DDC1990 · 25-01-2013 07:59PM

I was going to have a go at Toner for being penalty prone, but ffs!

The Saxons landed on him, he didn't back in, he didn't make any motion towards the jumper, he just protected himself.

We're not River Dancing or Morris Dancing, keep square.

Brilliant Ref

Glass Prison 1214 · 25-01-2013 08:01PM

Every game I see of Bent, the less confident I am becoming about him.....

Fireball07 · 25-01-2013 08:01PM

Getting destroyed in scrum. Badly.

DDC1990 · 25-01-2013 08:01PM

LOL "Guys we're not Riverdancing or Morris Dancing...just stay square" :P

Bent is getting a hammering in the scrums

Lelantos · 25-01-2013 08:01PM

Bent needs help, getting hammered everytime in the scrum

Clegg · 25-01-2013 08:03PM

Bent's side of the scrum is flying back when the hit is made.

corny · 25-01-2013 08:03PM

Big difference in delivery at scrum half. Wigglesworth is poor.

That's true

Teferi · 25-01-2013 08:03PM

Lads is anyone else of the opinion that Bent is getting hammered in the scrum?

Lelantos · 25-01-2013 08:04PM

English no11 is being sponsored by pantene

ballygowan1 · 25-01-2013 08:04PM

At least we can see that Bent can't scrummage . Another shocker . Tell me why we was brought all the way from New Zealand again?

Fireball07 · 25-01-2013 08:04PM

Slightly better at the hit that time, but the 2nd shove pushed Bent back. Hmm...

P_1 · 25-01-2013 08:05PM

Mícheál ó Bent isn't having the best of days work in the scrum alright

DDC1990 · 25-01-2013 08:05PM

Coughlan is playing class behind a scrum going backwards.

Its a pity he's not more flexible, would be great as a bench option for Heaslip.

But now, the backrow replacement has to have experience at 6/7/8 really.

Henshaw doing well in the air there.

Fireball07 · 25-01-2013 08:06PM

Henshaw is immaculate under the high ball, whatever about the other aspects of his game.

ed7890 · 25-01-2013 08:07PM

What happened against South Africa when Bent looked alright?

Teferi · 25-01-2013 08:07PM

England 15 has a fairly big boot on him.

Coughlan is an out & out 8. I don't see anyone saying Heaslip has to be more flexible.

P_1 · 25-01-2013 08:08PM

I'm not liking how we seem to have sit back after the try

One scrum against a tight head playing loose?

Didn't know Heaslip was even in the squad.
