[goodNumber10]

England Dispatching the Saders with ease at the moment.

Cips taken off after less than 50..................he must be starting on Saturday!!!!!

 

[Peat]

That as a penalty? F**k me sideways.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

47mins from the halfbacks = bench for the final test?

 

[Tony Manx]

Looks like Munster may have got themselves a decent enough player in Bleydenhaal (Sp?)...........

why would he be starting? Burns will start, cips will be on the bench.

I'm actually surprised he didn't pull Cips before the game with Farrell now being out.

Maybe wanted him to get some game time.

 

[Tony Manx]

why would he be starting? Burns will start, cips will be on the bench.

Over enthusiasm and......................sarcasm!! But would also add as a reward for a great consistent season against Burns who has showed his ability in just one match!!

Ellis has been like a man on a mission since he came on he's been everywhere. And yeah iv never heard of half these Saders players. I mean what is this a Saders C side or something seriously its ridiculous.

getting your excuses in early, eh?

 

[Tony Manx]

This England team have played well but it is against at the very least a second string Crusaders who have 11 AB's unavailable and, therefore, if we argue that England played a second string in the First Test there is an argument that this is the "C team"!!

Nope just giving you poor sods something to scoff about. ; )

Tony, I was WUM'ing the WUM.

 

[Basco]

Crusaders will crush England XV. What on earth is Alex Goode doing in an England camp? Personally I would have preferred England to have played this game vs. one of the Pacific Islands rather than a SR franchise.

 

[Tony Manx]

Sorry? What is WUM?

Money is going to the Earthquake relief fund, so it's for a really good cause.

Think we have another SiegeSiege here!

 

[TRF Mr Fish]

Great cover defence there!

 

[exeter]

I believe England have a former Crusaders C team player on the bench.

I believe that would be Patterson.....he is on now!

Although the score tells a different story, I don't think the crusaders are playing that bad
