[QUOTE="Zootalaws, post: 1158864, member: 61187"] You didn't think that was an embarrassing QF against Fiji? It Fiji had landed two astray penalties your team wouldn't have progressed. When it's more about a failed set piece than any positive game play on your behalf, that's an embarrassment. When you look at the relative size of the unions - 40M quid spent just on the England team, about 4 million quid spent on the whole of rugby in Fiji England has 1,900 clubs, 10 of them professional clubs and 1,182,602 players, Fiji has 560 clubs with one professional club, 80,000 players - including 20,000 kids. It looks like an embarrassment to me. [/QUOTE]
