Wilby, the man responsible for getting David Lloyd here, and the glorious times it brought us? They both played for world famous clubs.
I went to this match, but in Cardiff, in 2015 Cracking weekend with England winning Incredible atmosphere
Close game. Two pivotal moments for me, (1) the disallowed try, I thought the TMO got it right, and (2) the Underhill tackle in the corner. I think England are better than Ireland so the Slam's on.
Population has nothing to with it. Otherwise England would have won a load of rugby league world cups instead of Australia and New Zealand ( which has only one professional club which has to play in Australia). Russia , USA, China and India would have done well at football World Cups,we would have done better than Argentina. And we would have beaten Iceland.
I went yesterday and going to England v Ireland as well. I absolutely love the atmosphere and Twickenham, went for Tapas before where there where 200-300 rugby fans all getting drunk together, it was brilliant. My knowledge of rugby isn't what it used to be. If it isn't clear who should get the benefit of the doubt? In cricket the batsman always gets the benefit of the doubt (Misconception though, this rule doesn't actually exist), but in rugby does the defending team get it? Good performances, we weren't great, but we won that's all that matters and our execution when presented with opportunities is great.
