[2019 Six Nations] England vs Italy (09/03/2019)

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Why isn't robson on??? I hope Jones realises Robson is alive

To be fair it's only half time. If he isn't on by 50 minutes though, I will be annoyed.

Rob-who?

Honestly at this point why not just put another second row in the 21 shirt.

 

[Aristodemus]

Despite the scoreline I'd say that is our worst first half of the 6N. We look quite vulnerable defensively and are making way too many mistakes in attack.

Hughes to 8, Binny to 12, Teo to 9

 

[Jimbo]

Leading by 7 points against Wales you'd take the 3. Depends how seriously you take Italy.

I defiantly agree you would on occasions but 21 - 7 up considering we had forwards kicijg in the opening minutes, can they really be taking it that seriously, think Ollie could be on to something.

 

[Vieux Talonneur]

Right. So far so Italy.

I want to see LCD and Robson have the whole second half and for us to rack up 60+. We're so much better that a 10 point half just won't do.

 

[BPM]

100% agree. I'm less fussed on LCD, but surely Robson needs to get at least 30mins.

 

[Jimbo]

Would like to see Noel come on at 12, he can't be worse than Teo.

 

[Every Time Ref]

I hate to say it but I really think we need to think about which countries merit inclusion in the tournament.

I'm all for a 3Nations of England, Ireland and Wales.

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

Lawes at 12
Ewels at 9
Attwood at 15

Job done

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Curry got eye raked/gouged at that last ruck

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Daly looked like he had no interest in picking that up

Curry got eye raked/gouged at that last ruck

also not sure why the ref didn't decide he didnt work his way through.

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Hope Cokonasiga gets a try. He's earned it

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Also, helluva pass from George

 

[ncurd]

Jamie George!

Hopefully seen the back of Hartley.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Thank God England don't have halfbacks like Dawson and Wilkinson, they'd be world numero unos otherwise I think.

 

[Every Time Ref]

TFW your inside centre gives a slow, mediocre but just about serviceable pass to your hooker, who throws a quick, inch-perfect, long pass over a defender off his wrong hand to the winger

Less so Wilkinson but O think like 7, 9 We have never really replaced or had better than Dawson in 16 years. It's been less noticeable because they haven't been utter trash
