    Oddly enough England is now the only unbeaten team in this RWC...

    England: Farrell
    Ireland: Sexton
    Wales: Biggar

    Is it preferable to be a massively unlikelable fluffybunny to play 10 in the British Isles?

    I get the first two, but I've never found Biggar to be on the same level, have I missed something?

    He has a rep for abusing his teammates.

    Is that enough? Some well loved ABs of the past would meet that criteria.

    I know it’s easy to forget Scotland but Finn Russell has been known to be difficult too.

    Contrast that with DC, Beaver, Beaudy etc who you’d happily buy a beer for at the pub

    It is hilarious to me that England is now the great hope of the NH.

    I'm genuinely surprised that it seems a few people think England have a hope against SA.

    They 100% genuinely, really, don't. Not a sliver.

    @Bones

    Good points. Maybe some consistency in guidelines used by the Ref's as well to make their job easier/better. Changing guidelines every 2-3 games doesn't help.

    he Georgian ref has been a revelation so make a point of widening the net.

    And how nany of us were pissed off with his work experience performances last RWC and in between?

    Think Barnesy 2007 too.

    Development comes with a cost. Perhaps just not on the biggest stages.

    Has anyone asked Sir Clive how he would like his crow cooked?

    This has actually aged quite well.

    You'd imagine Wilko would be up for that as well.

    Anyone who practices goal kicking on Xmas day is not the kind of cat I want to have a beer with.
