| Quote: The Chair Maker "Found something new out today that the ra ra boys dont speak loudly about in the press.
Namely that England RU legend Martin Johnson actually played for the Junior All Blacks. Though born in England his RU education was in NZ were he went to school.
Cant England RU develop any talent themselves?'"
Lol
Did peacock not play in Aus when he was younger?
Every great player should have a spell in the southern hem as it would improve their game no end |

It's not hard to tell that Wales are being coached by RL men.

True, but Wales have always played a running/passing game, the RL coaching just means that they are better at the way they want to play. |

I cannot abide the sport but watched some of the first half when I woke up on the settee around midnight. England are gash, they can just about manage the set piece scrum & line outs which they can practice ad nauseum, but ask them to do anything creative or off the cuff & they haven't got a clue. Log may it continue.

When I went away I thought about France and realised I was unfair in saying Northern Hemisphere RU isn't about running. The French RU at least tried to entertain. Serge Blanco was pretty good to watch sometimes. |

So where do England go from here?
No creativity in the midfield, no mobility in the back row and a setpiece that is starting to creak having been the foundation for England teams of the past.
May as well throw the baby out with the bathwater and start blooding more young players in the 6 Nations aiming to the 2011 World Cup.

Am I mistaken? I had read on every page in every newspaper for the past year that Danny Cipriani is the saviour & future of England Rugby (sic). Perhaps talent in yawnion is not necessarily comparable with exposure. Shock.

These violent delights have violent ends
And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
Which, as they kiss, consume.: |

More like Danny Cipriani in early return from serious injury and fails to be as good as he was immediately before he was broken shock.
When 100% he is as good as the hype made out, but with the lack of cover he was rushed back before he recovered full fitness and form.
That said the other 14 on the park didn't help matters and they haven't had their ankle rebuilt in the past 3 months. |
