@mariner4life Interesting he's such a tool when his dad handled himself after the loss with the greatest of dignity.

Hugely respect Courtney Lawes
I'm beginning to like Maro Itoje too since he stopped behaving like a rodeo cowboy shouting Yeehaah! all the bloody time.

My wife is one, so hard not to! Tho she calls herself Cornish and British not English - she hates the idea 'English' (with it's white supremacist skin head implications) and supports Wales more haha
You do realise she's technically more French than British....

The Cornish are very proud of being Cornish, I have a half Cornish friend, she's still happy to say she's English though but will say Cornish-English.
They are quiet about it though and as I've found after living here for 7 years, seem to regard anyone who actually lives in Cornwall full-time as Cornish. Probably more rugby mad than the Welsh just a bit more quiet
Her family are a lot darker than the usual English look
Funnily enough, the most Cornish people I know (from Alternun going back centuries) are as blonde as blonde can be.

Danny Care is an absolute top bloke - up there with Fitzy in the down-to-earth, chat to anyone stakes.
Worked in the same team with Dallaglio for 2-3 weeks. Complex bloke. Very, very professional and good to work with, but hard to have a chat to and always felt he was struggling with something.

I don't get that one, the Cornish were in Britain before the French (Norman's) , and Vikings, and in fact the Romans

Kenewek (Cornish) is almost identical to Breton and way closer to other Celtic languages like Welsh. Lots of DNA analysis shows a really high level of DNA similarity. Loads of interesting stuff being discovered as Cornish culture and language revives.

@Victor-Meldrew I think Christie was selected for how Ireland attack, not just for defence in general. They tradionally like sparking a hell of a lot of their attack off Gibson-Parkes, so much as I a Roigard fan, could see point last week, and can understand if they think Roigard better bet this week.

Their metal reserves meant that they traded with Mediterranean countries as far back as first millenium!
