[QUOTE="Thingimubob, post: 790829, member: 20956"] As much as it pains me to say it, congrats on the 'Slam England ;) Not been vintage 6 Nations overall (last two round have been much improved though), but that takes absolutely nothing away from the achievement of winning the Grandslam. So anyone chatting rubbish about it not being deserved needs to grow up and stop being so bloody childish. England still have a hell of a lot to work on before they take on Australia in the summer. Still seem to be conceding a lot of penalties (kept France in the game with that), and they have to make sure they don't give Aus the same opportunities they gave France. Vakatawa (who I thought was excellent) showed Nowell a clean pair of heels a few times down that wing. In Nowell's defence though, I thought he looked very good in attack when he came off his wing, attacking essentially as a 13 at times. Was again really impressed by Itoje. Clearly is the real deal! Overall, England were the better team last, and over the course of the tournament so were well worth the win. We'll have ewe next year! ;) [/QUOTE]
