Look at the Paddy head of Geraghty

Seriously how do ye get away with him? I don't mind what with us having The Sex and all but you do seem to like your 12's to be a bit less than 100% English.[/b]
He's a 10, not a 12.

It's purple is whats wrong. Purple is not an English colour.[/b]

Considering England are one of the few top rugby nations still ruled by a monarchy, and purple is a traditionally regal colour, I'd have thought it was actually a reasonable choice for a change strip?

I quite like the jersey as well, it's grown on me since I first saw it.
 
Purple is the imperial colour.

The kit looked good - it was the lack of wit in England's play that made them in to purple plonkers. I'm pretty sure the play will match the kit when it matters.

Are NZ, Australia, Scotland and Wales no longer top rugby nations?

Well, they are. But England aren't.

Can you tell where this is going yet?
 
Well you can discount Wales for a start, if England aren't a top rugby nation then based on the results of the Autumn internationals Wales definitely aren't either! :lol:

Edit: basically the top five is:

1. NZ
2. Ireland
3.France
4. Scotland
5. Australia

Not quibbling with England's "status" (*snerk*) but at least get your nations in order first...

P.S. I like the jersey. Don't see what the big deal is?[/b]

He plays 10, 12 and...does the job as dark wizard off the bench.


Edit: Why the **** isn't the Draco Malfoy picture coming up....he's the bop off him though.

HMMMMMM...well I've seen him play 12. Therefore he plays 12. McCaw is a better 12 this year though. Cough.

Wait wait wait, even Italy could beat Samoa, Argentina basically gave you the game on a plate, Australia ran over you for the full 80 minutes and New Zealand just brushed you aside pretty easily.

What do you want me to say? That because you beat Samoa, a team that Italy brushed aside, you're deserving of a space in the top 5?
