@Bones When he played in Australia last year he was so far behind the pace. Awful.

Van Portfleet is not helping his cause

Doing his best Tomos Williams impression

[Tim]

@Bones A friend knows Nick Evans through work, and he really rates him. My cheeky friend suggested that his height and quality were more Isaiah West level.

Our loose trio are really going to have to roll their sleeves up, as has the entire pack. France has been super efficient and so quick at the breakdown.

I don't think there's much between him and Mounga. Just Smith has a dial that might be even more hateable than Sexdoll.

England look awful at the breakdown. Midfield is all over the place - bunching up on attack and getting pulled out of position on defence. Think Farrell may be on after the break to add some leadership.

[MiketheSnow]

Aldritt must read The Fern

Massive half

[Tim]

@Bones Smith is really substandard. Has showed none of the quality that Mo'unga has.

You'd hope so.

His teammates may hate him, but he is much better than the clowns out there.

Sinfield getting ready with the hair dryer

27 - 3 at half time at Twickenham. A fucking rabble.

[Bones]

Fucking hell that was a training run.

French loosies looking out of this world.

[Jailbreak7]

And we can't have BB kicking either....

With the resignation letter?

@Bones And the Irish made them look ordinary.

Fuck no

There’s no way he coached that defensive performance

[Victor Meldrew]

First half is worst England performance I've seen for a while. Zero direction, silly mistakes & an attack like a toothless squirrel.

Not that Borthwick needs one.

Genge
Sinckler
Itoje
Farrell

Oh you really hate to see such great and humble guys suck a big one.

[Bones]

@Tim I don't get the Farrell hate, but fuck yes to the others. Farrell doesn't seem like that blustery piston wristed gibbon, he just gets away with shithouse tackling.

[Bones]

That's really bizarre the back markers swapping when Dupont hit the 50-22. What the fuck were they trying to achieve?
