Brian Moore. He's finally gone insane from watching all the crap that England have been exhibiting on the pitch since 2004. So in a way, I don't blame him.

But Moore is much better than Butler!
More on Regan: Guardian (Clicky). Good one Marky boy. :cheers:

I've always like Moore. Whenever I'm watching a six nations game Moore provides comfort from the monstrosity that is Eddie Butler. Butler is the pure definition of a meat sack, a massive boof head.

Agreed there, Butler is just a knob who almost acts like his presence shouldn't even be near meaty Moore. Moore gave me a few laughs last night though; "It hasn't gone ten, don't touch it.....you half-wit!"

Did you miss the replay? Noon knocked the ball on; it was not a try. Traille missed two kicks, which would have made a significant difference to the game. At the end of the first half, where Clerc ran horizontally across his twenty-two, with no hope of breaking the gainline, only to get smashed by an England flanker, summed up France's naivety.
Ahh well, the coach is building for the future, so I hope this means we haven't seen the last of this exciting French side at their best. Still can't wait for the Welsh game with them though! Should be superb!

The knock on is one of those things I guess. I apply the same logic that I applied to the forward pass that enabled Michalak's break against New Zealand in the World Cup Quater-Final. Obviously not a try but what can you do if the officials don't do their job? Were the touch judges watching at the time?
At the same time though...that was a pretty meaty tackle by Noon...

Lame. Very lame, and pathetic to be honest :toss:

You're right...
Wayne Barnes, an Englishman, was the referee that night, so surely Walsh would have wanted France to win!
I knew my arguement was flawed!

Erm, well it was a try because it was awarded and 5 points were added to England's score. :toss:
But what can you do, there've been countless tries that weren't tries. My point still stands as England's defense lead to a France mistake (arguably).

I would call that lost in the tackle/impact rather than a knock on. It's all very well to say that when you see it in super slow-motion - there's a reason why no players at the time claimed it was!

I watched the first english try in slow motion and on a 42" plasma TV.
First, we can believe a forward contact as the ball clearly went in the blue camp, but watching it again, we can't see at any moment a white body touching it, It is quite possible that the trajectory is only due to the violence of the tackle

I watched it again with the hubble telescope on my grandmother's 42 inches ass and it's definitely forward. Watch closely between the hemorroids.
