Oddly, and no idea why. I always feel like a Frenchman. |

Rugby is usually a massive yawn but that game had everything.

Excellent game ... and the officials were exemplary.

It was amusing to see the relationship between the referee and the players, especially the captains. You could see that the French captain wanted to kill the ref when he disallowed a try and sent a French player off but instead, he just sheepishly asked "are you sure?". The relationship was like a teacher with a primary school student. Not knocking it, you sayin

That's rugby ... makes the behaviours of soccer players impossible to watch.

That's just no longer true (if it ever was). I learned and played rugby from 11 years old, the son of a miner, living in a pit house on an estate of pit houses. The laws of rugby are largely unchanged and include that the referee should be addressed as 'Sir' and only by the capain. Rog |

Miles off, England’s current most capped player and third overall in that ranking - Dan Cole is the last person you could accuse of being a hooray Henry - along with the vast majority of the squad. |

I wish they would change the bloody name to something else. Every time I search Google for anything in my nearest town I have to wade through pages and pages about egg-chasing before I find anything pertinent.

I will always remember going into the Wetherspoons in Hackney, the girls were probably 2 and 4 years old at the time and we sat in the area closer to the outside. There was a bunch of rugger boys (adults actually) at an adjacent table with lots of pints of guiness lined up in advance. They were having a good time and one of them said "fucking" in a sentence. It was not a sex reference. It was something like "that game was fucking amazing". Another of the group turned and said "sorry about that" my retort was "it's ok they hear worse language than that at home". It does show that rugby peoples have some class. And manners. Let's not forget the fucking manners. I hate fucking swearing so anyone apologising is fucking great as far as I'm concerned. |
