[2015 RWC] Warm Up Match: France vs England (22/08/2015)

[ShonH]

Obviously didn't watch Youngs pre 2013.

I am watching him now. He appears to be rather useless.

 

[The Jones Boy]

We'll I'm glad Youngs is off our lineout is much better!!!!!!!!!!

Hahahahahah, excellent sarcasm
Made me laugh.

Great defence by England held out the Frogs from another try.

Ermmm I was replying to comment saying when has Ben Youngs ever got things right (well pretty much), and pre 2013 he was brilliant IMO.

That's a belter of a try from the scumbag Huget!


Well considering Johnny May is the only guy out there who's played both, it's not hard to see why the teams are playing so differently...

How about how last week it showed how good the depth of squad was. Not so deep on w is it?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Rowntree overrated?

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Lovely turf in France.

Was there a strike amongst the ground staff or something.

WHY ARE OUR FORWARDS STATIC?!

You don't want Binny catching the ball 5m behid the gainline at a standstill, you want him catching it 1m back at full tilt.

This. And the French pack want's it more.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Are these scrums going to have to go uncontested?
This pitch is tearing up worse than I've ever seen



Cipriani warming up......for his 15mins at fullback.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Cips warming up.

Brown to some off then?

 

[goodNumber10]

This game needs a fight....I know it sounds daft, but something needs to get some venom into the English lack.

 

[The Jones Boy]

Marler is punch drunk, get the poor bloke off and get on someone who can stand strong. Less focus on tattoos and a dodgy haircut and more focus on staying up in the scrum

Could be an explanation for poor scrummaging can't be easy beng a prop when you can't be sure of your footing.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Cipriani looks to have packed on some more muscle as well

 

[The Jones Boy]

Good touch finder up the line from hand by Ford.

 

[itsonlyrugby]

Isn't it funny when England are winning Croft can't get a game. But when they're in the **** he's one of the first names mentioned? Just for the record I agree. The guy should be picked,he might not fit this bull**** photofit criteria Lancaster is trying to crowbar together but he does the job when asked

[Lé Ddanno]

Who mentioned maul defence?

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Lancaster is a annoying anal dwelling butt monkey.

Can he not sub off his 10?

Let's play a form 10 @ 15.

Yes that sounds good!

Fun off.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Cipriani just came on onto the wing.

I am ****ing done with this team.

I thought England gave up contesting the scrums some time ago.
