England vs Italy

I guess we disagree there. I think passing the tryline and waiting to put the ball down is disrespectful. This what Ashton does is maybe not the nicest thing to do but I personally don't see a problem with it

Still disrespectful whatever way you paint it, a fantastic player that does not need to do it.

Waving your hand in the air is showboating, the swan dive going over is plain stupid. It is disrespecting your opponents. I hated it when Scott Gibbs did it in 1999 and I hate when Shane Williams does it.
 
I don't mean to hijack this thread but I don't think england are that much better than Ireland were last week it's just they can catch the ball.

Every time I see a player do it, I hope for this -

If Ashton keeps scoring two tries per game, he can do cartwheels before touching the ball down for all I care. Personally I find the swan dive unnecessary but it's not disrespectful.
