Like the comms were discussing I'm constantly baffled everytime I watch rugby why the refs just ignore the ball being fed into the second row of the scrum every single time. It's not even a spun ball fed into the middle that spins your way it's literally just chucked to the second row!
I know, it has been going on for ages.
yet in a line out, a few cm out and it's not straight !

Ouch, don't try and tackle with your head like Hartley did there.
Rightly taking their time making sure Hartley is ok

Think that is pretty much it now

France down to 14, with a few minutes left

Well done England on the Grand Slam

well done England

and as Moore was just saying they haven't played great during the whole tournament but that just means they can still improve a lot.........we can dominate for several years !

Is that a turning point for England, finally closing out a tight scoreline?

*dons tin hat*

Not the best Six Nations tournament ever, although that's probably the WC knock on effect

Hopefully 2017 will be much better

Can't see the big 3 down south losing sleep if they have been watching these matches

Well-done England - a clean sweep!

Eddie Jones is going to make this a formidable force for the foreseeable future.

Big test to play Wales in Cardiff though.

Good to see Hartley in his feet, out on the pitch.

Do you think guys it is better to win a Grand slam away from home or at Twickenham

Traditionally most of his teams have got worst the longer he's stayed on as coach.
