[2016 RBS Six Nations] Round 3: England vs. Ireland (27/02/2016)

[j'nuh]

Eng v Ire threads are always arrogance fests, this one is way too civil

The Special One retired.
The Ginger One retired.
O'Brien, Henderson, Ross and Healy crocked.
Sexton? More like Suckston.
I just assume the Irish have given up all hope.

Everyone is busy hating Wales mate!

God damn those bloody fiends.

Whereas England haven't actually had any talented players ever since they won the World Cup back when I was 6 and the GameCube was still a thing, so Ive felt they've been long overdue on the whole humility thing for a while now.

 

[Groundhog]

People acting like McCloskey is Manu.
It's a good job he's from Bangor cause he's gonna get banged out on Saturday.

Chat ****, play ****, be ****: England Rugby
Edit: tis the season after all

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Since rugby was invented by England Ireland have beaten you in a war and become a soveirgn state, decided it's all well and good to have our own sports but we may as well start getting good at a few others and gone from the worst team that played the sport properly in the world to now slowly but surely becoming better than England... Ouch.

Impossible. The stats lie, it's all about history and we have won a World Cup #YNWA

Who are all these Ireland injuries? Supposed to be a long list.

Until this week with Healy and Ross back now.

(Healy)
(Ross)
POM
Henderson
SOB
Luke Fitzgerald
Dave Kearney
Mike McCarthy
Jared Payne (Although this is too our advantage)

Those would be the main ones with realistic expectations to be in in the 23.

A fit Tommy Bowe would have probably been in the 23 and a fit Dan Tuohy might have been, particularly with McCarthy down too.

edit: Why on earth do you still have the Kidney Clock in your sig? :lol:

Never forget.

 

[Peat]

Never forget.

Too lazy to change it huh?

Martin Moore should be on the list too, come to think of it.

Haha, joke's on you, we had Burgess for a year.

 

[Tony Manx]

Never forget.

And yet you forget dear old Eddie the "saviour" of USA and Biarritz........not!

He gets a free pass cuz we hadn't realise we could be good yet.

That's quite a list I must admit, although this happens to all sides from time to time.
England have a few themselves, although I'm told they have more players than the other countries to call on.

 

[Gavin]

Whatever the result I just want PJ to make an appearance over the new 2 matches.

Thanks for making me feel old

 

[Groundhog]

If this were Space Jam, England would be the bad guys who absorbed the talent from a basketball to enslave the Loony Tunes, only England have no talent and already did their slavery, so I guess the metaphor doesn't check out. Never mind

Your country's inadequacy did that, don't put that on me Generation X!
