“We’re a very clever rugby team” George.
I think they are. This is a team of individuals trying their best to work together and doing a bloody good job - all in spite of the coaching. They were in the running to beat everyone this season despite being given no direction.
ok
You've outdone yourself. But hey if you're happy to label a team dumb when you scrape home against them..m
Relief at winning. Yeah, England look to on the edge of being a great team. Since last year.
Now imagine Schmidt in charge.

I don't get all the hate on here for Itoje. he is a very good player and has been consistently for a number of years. Yeah he had a shit game today but that alone does not make him a shit player.
The hate is because he is the ultimate screaming at line outs, cheering knock ons obnoxious knob jockey
He’s enthusiastic then. 😀
We all have our players that have less than attractive traits, sometimes I wonder if it is part of their designated job. For Itoje it certainly seemed that way under Eddie.

Borthwick has to go. Just has too. Get a confident, established coach and let him build a coaching set up I might actually have heard of. Our defence is as bad as I can ever remember it, and our structured attack non existent.
Reading between the lines, Jones left because of borthwicks autocratic style. Do you think borthwick can learn from this, or is he too dictatorial ? England have a long history of sacking coaches at just the wrong time. The team are not far off being really good.
-
We’re a prop, an 8 and a centre partnership from being potentially good. We would need to ad a decent and stable coaching team to that.

I’ve heard that Borthwick is paranoid, worried about losing his job and therefore a control freak. He’s the wrong man. The team look good in patches as they have some decent cattle (all be it were really short in the front row and in the centres), but the defence shows that the players don’t understand what the coaches want from them, my guess is that the coaches don’t understand either

Remembering those days when Borthwick was playing and all you heard was stuff like how technically good he was and what a good lineout caller he was. Very little was said about how ineffectual he was as a player given his physical gifts.

Much better then your Berry.
For a nation that hasn't produced a Test quality ref since Andre Watson, that's a really interesting position to take.
RSA has so much Rugby playing talent, in such big and well run system, and your peak contribution is Marius Jonker behind a TMO desk.
And he's bad at that.

PSDT has been outstanding. Again. What a player!
Best in the world imo. Better than Dupont.
DuPont the GOAT. What a joke. He was so average yesterday.
