For once I disagree with Mr. Moore. The QC is a "f***ing c***t".
Please note that the last noun is not a four letter one.
Gatland ? Why is Parling playing on Tuesday when O'Connell might not even be fit to start next Saturday ?
Only when their players are at risk. Didn't anyone explain the rules for Lions' Tours to you ?”
I see Parling has been withdrawn from Tuesday's match now.
With respect to the citings... they'll be asking to cite players for running into theirs looking at Saturday... they must be made of chocolate.
The Junior World Championship made great viewing, I wish they'd put more games on.
England always looked the better side but Wales took their first half chances well. I don't understand why England changed the pack from the one that took it to the kiwis; they looked impressive in the second half when they changed the loosehead.
The England Hooker has terrible hair but fair play to him, one of the best players on the park; made so many gains, always around the ball and the contact area. A big future ahead I hope (and a hair cut).
The England 8 looked awesome, as did the Welsh 6 and 7 (how different from the early 2000's when the entirety of Wales gasped everytime Martyn Williams went down); you've flankers coming out all over the place.
Jordan Williams has potential, maybe looks a little like a 7s player at the minute.
