Man plenty of Sexton fans think he is hard done by...

Love how he doesn't get the irony of trying to say this guy is the face of rugby, but has been treated harshly by getting a very light ban for doing something disgusting while the face of rugby.

I preferred it when they were the plucky Irish, now they are just bores. Funny, maybe that's what people used to say about the ABs and their supporters...

They still do. English fans mainly.

Mentioning that and constantly making crap jokes about Richie McCaw being offside all the time.

I've met Pommy fans who aren't like that. But perhaps they are in the minority, and the rest slurp the walrus' koolaid

Nowhere near as bad as the Scottish fans thst I know with their repetitive boring shite …

Disappointing from Ferris, honestly. Although I don’t necessarily buy into all the rugby values tripe, ref respect is one thing which should never diminish.

Can’t argue, Scots fans are fucken terrible.

Na they handle themselves with self deprecation and wit.

The genuine ones are fluffybunnies. I blame the weather and the food and the price of a good whisky ( not whiskey )

Interesting that faux Scots watch "genuine" Scots even though the latter are...

A heck of a lot do. I've known knowledgeable Pom rugby supporters who exhibit surprise when you point out the likes of Jonah, Tana, etc are born in NZ.

Are they even more surprised when you point out that Manu Tuilagi was actually born in Samoa, and not in the UK?

We mostly know that. We hear it from all the Kiwi and Aussie supporters

Of course it cuts both ways. Jamie Salmon and John Gallagher were born and raised in the UK. But they got their formal rugby education in NZ

[Smuts]

@Catogrande No, no, no. You’re supposed to lean into the natural right of the English to plunder your former Empire.

Nothing worse than you superior bastards who hide your natural villainy behind a facade of wit, self-deprecation and a solid rugby sense.
