[2017 RBS Six Nations] Round 3: England vs Italy (26/02/2017)

[Jockstap]

Eddie is right.

FFS the Irish where ******* there pants over NZ being rough to them in the AI's.

Yes, repeated illegal tackles to the ****ing head is the same as being too dumb to understand the rules.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Ahh no, Lancaster was liked by all but the Welsh. Schmidt has so much class, he couldn't be disliked outside of Munster and Connacht (Their less intelligent offerings at that) Jones is known as an arrogant gob****e. He just had a romantic role with Japan.

You just listed a bunch of losers.

 

[McTallshort]

People hate Eddie Jones because he's a complete knob. Nobody hated Stuart Lancaster.

And Stuart Lancaster won **** all

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

People hate Eddie Jones because he's a complete knob. Nobody hated Stuart Lancaster.

People didn't hate Stuart Lancaster simply because he wasn't really a person worth talking about. That's not a good thing. Eddie Jones probably is a bit of a knob I don't know, but what I do know is he tries to take the heat off players at his own expense and that's a sensible thing.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Yes, repeated illegal tackles to the ****ing head is the same as being too dumb to understand the rules.

The mean NZ players tackled us hard.....

 

[Jockstap]

Nobody hates Lancaster becuase he turned England into a gutless bunch of losers.

Or it was plainly obvious he was a decent bloke while Eddie Jones is routinely disrespectful, obnoxious, Australian and never stops talking excrement.

 

[TobesHodges]

I think the rules might be changed around the ruck, A 'ruck' will be formed from a tackle and the attacking team being over the ball - this will then set the offside line being the shoulders of attacking player (but that's where it gets complicated and up for debate as to what body part they will use) - once the defending team engages it then becomes a 'contestable ruck' and normal rucking rules would resume. Thoughts? Because as much as I don't want to applaud the tactics they are the current rules, that was Rugby but I don't think anyone wants to watch that week in week out, therefore a bit detrimental to the game only IMO.. Again apologies for the comments earlier, was heat of moment

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Irish supporters currently like

Why is Jones so mean in his comments, call Sexton he's crying over jones comments.

Why did NZ play so rough against us.

 

[Jockstap]

The mean NZ players tackled us illegally.....so much that world rugby had to introduce new rules to save the game.

Fixed that for you.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Or it was plainly obvious he was a decent bloke while Eddie Jones is routinely disrespectful, obnoxious, Australian and never stops talking excrement.

Nah it was becuase Lancaster had no bite and made an England team with no nite.

 

[Groundhog]

Oooooh baby look at the comments of any match report for this game and it's a **** show of whinging. Some people very gracious, but there's always a few.

 

[Vieux Talonneur]

That was ugly by all concerned. Never want to see that no ruck tactic again. Within the laws, without the spirit.

What the hell has happened to our forwards? Just too nice, too many piano players, not enough piano shifters. Won't happen, obvs, but wouldn't be upset to see Sink, Atwood and Morgan start against the Scots. We need some physicality in the close exchanges and ball carrying oomph.

And whatever Jones is doing before the games just isn't working. Our first halves have been dire.

 

[Jockstap]

Nah it was becuase Lancaster had no bite and made an England team with no nite.

You know I'm right, getting smacked in the head or being too dumb to work out a simple rule. You need to pick your battles better buddy. You are the guy who thinks Owen Farrell should be anywhere near the Lions team so it's my own fault for arguing with you.

[Leonormous Boozer]

The mean NZ players tackled us hard.....

Ah that's different! Two red card infringements and four concussions conceded a yellow and three points.

Unlike this groundhog?

[TRF_Olyy]

Losing in the opening round of the 6N, taking away that grandslam they only had to turn up to win, really rustled some Irish jimmies.

 

[Every Time Ref]

Yes.

Never thought Kruis was ahead of him. He's a much more simple player... ruck smasher.

And who needs one of those when there are no rucks?

Haha, If Schmidt coached England he'd be hated too. It's how it works. No one had a bad word to say about Eddie until he took on this job. Having said that he shouldn't be criticising italy, he should be roasting his stupid players.

Absolutely, but not in public. He'll be doing it behind closed doors

 

[Jockstap]

That's true about one of us. You know I'm right.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

That's true about one of us. You know I'm right.

Whatever you want to believe.
