[2015 Six Nations] England vs Italy (Round 2)

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Cheeky from Youngs.

I'm sure he's done that a few times before in games where we've been crap.



Depends a lot on how players around him play off him.
ATM For is standing a mile back and then 36 another mie behind him. Neither usually stand like that so must have been told to.

Yeh Youngs does like doing that.

Regarding ford he is standing very static ATM (even despite the passing) same with TT, maybe it is because of the early change.

Just think Cips could add something here.

Must be almost 60minutes, Youngs and Brookes are warming up.

Indeed...

Odds on Cips and Croft being unused again anyone?

 

[Groundhog]

I don't think there was much criticism? Most people understand how hard it is to go to Rome on the first weekend of the tournament with your best players missing!

Yeah not really. There was a little bit. Just really wanted to post a picture of a lemon. Pretty much my favourite reason to come here these days.

Ref has given England a homer and they still look naf. TY coming on, wonder how our lineout will function..

Croft almost certainly won't come on, I reckon.
Cipriani might get 2 or 3 minutes.

I want to see Wigglesworth get some proper game time, but he'll probably get 5 at most too.




Edit: God bless JJ.

 

[Tony Manx]

Criticism of Ireland last week is pretty funny now.

Not really...England playing as poor as Ireland did have scored more points in first 55 mins that Ireland did in the whole match..........make that a lot more and a better difference now!!!!

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

All the England players diving into the ruck to force a penalty and leaving the ref with no other decision, professional cheating?...

Actually in this case I agree - if we'd somehow turned it over a penalty would have been the deserved result. My point was more than whilst you're saying England are getting away with murder at the scrum you're ignoring the fact that Italy are goign straight down and basically ruling out an actual scrum contest. You manage not to mention this...

 

[TommiG88]

Cipriani!! Wooo

 

[Patchey]

That is one hell of a play!


This has been such an odd game

EDIT: Cips on!

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Yeah finally.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Well I was wrong!
Croft and Cips on!

 

[TommiG88]

Come on!!! Cipriani!!

 

[Tony Manx]

Cips is on...............and scores.............. and the Manx are in full flow it would appear!!!

 

[Groundhog]

Ok now it's getting bad.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Danny bbbbooooyyyy!

His support lines have always been excellent.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Could JJ be our winger?

 

[Patchey]

Not a bad first play for the lad!

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Omg Danny for Vice President of the world.

 

[Aristodemus]

How ya like them lemons? <3

Seriously though, worrying for Italy and they don't deserve a spanking.

 

[goodNumber10]

Haha! Amazing!
