Very impressive winners of the 6N. This is England's strongest team since 2003.
Anyone see Jonny S3xton's shameful play acting against Scotland? The Scots #12 probably would have been binned anyway but S3 xton's simulated injury made sure it was a yellow. No room for these theatrics in rugby. Man up chump!

I don't think that clean out was card worthy, maybe a penalty for past horizontal but I agree that Sexton should be embarrased and ashamed. Bittch acting like that is notwanted in rugby especially when it means we can't mockthe girly soccer players if rugby lads are up to the same tricks.

I have a new found respect for England after this years Six Nations, definitely see the capability of reaching the same heights that the class of Woodward reached.

Yep Eddie is superb. And Jake is superb. England have more talent than the other 6N teams, except for France which has had even worse coaching than England. Jake would have done a tremendous job with England as well.
This just shows how stupid we were to eject these two top rugby minds right after winning the WC. As for that comment by the AAS, what else can we expect from such an emotional fool.

Jake was average to poor......Eddie saved him as he has England........Jake does not deserve to be mentioned in the same light as Eddie......if it had not been for Eddie we would not have smelt that WC win......just look at Jake's record in the 2 years leading up to that WC......Eddie was brought in to save us, which is exactly what he did.

So what happened when Jake won the TN at his first try....no Eddie then hey. Still Dave your unswerving loyalty to Luke Watson is impressive.

I'll just say that Leonardo De Caprio is lucky the Oscars were held before this.

Ban these divers quickly. We don't want to see rugby players getting away with the kind of behaviour we see from cheating drama-queen footballers!

I agree they should stamp out "diver behavior". Rugby has a few historic cultural elements, i.e. minimize your injuries & hang tough, the ref is to be respected, play hard on the field but be gentlemen & good sports.
Some of these elements are getting eroded away. So for me this diving should be punished and publicly ridiculed. These elements are what help distinguish rugby from other sports.
I scored pretty high on Moz' pomposity index in this post but that's fine by me

"The English are great lovers of themselves ,and of everything belonging to them:they think there are no other men than themselves ,and no other world but England ....They have a very high reputation in arms:and from the great fear the French entertain of them,one must believe to be justly acquired "From the noble companion of the Venetian ambassador to the court of King Henry the VII .Just read this in a treatise on ye olde timey combat ,seems the more things change....
