Great start by England. Think my brother is in the stadium tonight. He is defo going to State of Origin III on Wednesday

Marcus Smith what a clown, Eddie position virtually untenable if England blow this one

 

[jd1981]

Whoever the referee is has zero positional sense numerous times he’s got in the way.

 

[jd1981]

Ref again in the way from that line out seriously

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

North 2 South 0. Now time for Wales to fuck it up. Not feeling very confident shall we say.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Yessssssss. Barry John, Gareth, JPR never did this. Brilliant! I’m celebrating!!!

 

[leedswolf]

Georgia beat Italy, Italy beat Wales, Wales beat South Africa = Georgia > South Africa

 

[Newbridge Wolf]

Yessssssss. Barry John, Gareth, JPR never did this. Brilliant! I’m celebrating!!!

I'm pretty sure you have to play them first to have a chance of beating them.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

This NZ Ireland game is absolutely insane. So good.

 

[Dinowolf]

What a win for Ireland
Historic

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

A truly outstanding test match and series won by an outstanding side.

 

[Donegal Wolf]

Need a lie down after that!
Great performance but was touch and go for a while.
We do peak every 4 years (shame it's always year before the world cup)

 

[1986]

It's only the fifth time I think that a touring team has won a series over New Zealand down there .
South Africa in 1937 . .lions in 1971 . .Australia in 1986 . .and France 1994 .

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

That surprises me a little as I always though the pre-ban Boks had the Indian sign over the All Blacks. Presumably they always won in South Africa and neither team won the away series very often

 

[jd1981]

How many forward passes has this ref missed?

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I just assumed he had decided that the rule had been suspended for the game. Bizarre.

Anyway, North 2 South 0.

 

[darlowolf64]

How many forward passes has this ref missed?

All of them?

Great win by England

 

[jd1981]

All of them?

Great win by England

Yep I thought I was seeing things, good series win for England however still a long way off challenging next year I think it’s France to lose

 

[sycophantia]

Only followed the match on radio, but sounded like a terrific defensive performance. Not sure we can win the world Cup playing that way.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

World Cup final could well be France v Ireland. Ireland were astounding this morning. Brilliant perrformance.
