Doesn't Aussie have any speedsters?

[Stargazer]

Oz saved by the touch line.

[MiketheSnow]

Australia couldn't do any more to shoot themselves in the foot.

Double amputees by the end of this match.

[MiketheSnow]

The Messiah is on

[Mick Gold Coast QLD]

The Qantas Harmless Wallabies spend five minutes or so on England's line - penalties awarded and so on - and come away with zero, very nearly zero minus 5 or minus 7. You just cannot do that and expect to claw back a win.

[Bones]

Phipps with the kick in the head on the way past Farrell. Surprise.

[MiketheSnow]

[Tordah]

what's up with the England home game post-match interviewer chicks always being such baiting fluffybunnies? I hate cross-eyed Hooper, but he reacted pretty nicely to that fucking bitch

[Bones]

@tordah I fucken just came on to say just that! What a fluffybunny. Hooper steaming when he was walking away and rightly so. What's with this constant deep dive for controversy?

Making your own news by whipping up some perceived issue or injustice seems to be the order of the day - gets you an "exclusive", I guess.

The English press must have been creaming themselves when Underhill's try was disallowed 2 weeks ago. The outrage was synthetic with journos being caught quoting out-of-date laws to show the try should have been allowed.

I think she's got a really snarky style

[MiketheSnow]

I respect, and grudgingly admire, Farrell's athleticism, skill, passion, bottle & doggedness.

But due to his 'win at all costs' mentality which often includes blatant cheating & calculated foul play combined with football feigning I can't bring myself to like him. Not that that's going to keep him at night.

Eddie and his press cronies harp on about how integral the Vunipola brothers and Manu 'The Messiah' are to England's chances at the WC.

Rubbish.

Without Farrell England have no fucking chance.

True. But as you say, he's still a cock.

No problems with in-yer-face players (Greg Laidlaw is one of favourites) but Farrell's cynical, fuck-the-opponent, self-congratulatory shit shows a lack of respect and is a real turn-off.

Akira Ioane shows this a bit at times. Wonder if that's what worries Hansen.
