24-0, with 23 minutes left....

Was the phycological damage to severe for Eddie Jones losing in the world cup final. 


Eddie Jones can do well for long with a team, but when the wheels fall off, they well and truly fall off. His Reds team lost 90-0 at Loftus before he was sacked. 

He also has John Mitchell in his team who is prone to exploding when the pressure builds and starts lashing out about how crap the players are etc.

Jonny May just scored 2 brilliant individualistic tries. Perhaps the fastest winger in the game at the moment, at least in the top tiers.

Perhaps the Poms are a bit overrated?

Well done Frenchies...England couldn't penetrate your defence in the dying moments...Farrell decides to close the gap by a penalty 24-17 to the Blue jerseys.

Could be French rugby is going through a resurgence of former glory days...it's about time and nice to see.

After their bad sportsmanship display at the medal presentation in the world cup, I can only say it could not have been a better result for England.


You guys deserved it and perhaps you will realize that sportsmen in all sport do and should always be humble in defeat.

Go Wales.
