    My interest was waning before the brolly era and went completely when that (3rd choice) idiot took the reins. It has not yet returned.

    It`s a sorry state of affairs if this lot`s the cream of the crop.

    I really couldn't give a flying **** tbh but he seems the perfect fit for the FA.
    A wimpish yes man who will say & do what the fat ****s in the blazers tell him.
    England will still win **** all.

    His naivete is showing through when he is saying that the players should adopt the attitude of the All Blacks because of their records and attitude.

    What they have has been bred out of the English as Rugby is a total religion over here and while there is huge national pride in representing their country in any way they can but the pinnacle is as an All Black. The pride in being an All Black is jealously guarded by the hierarchy and any misstep or bad behaviour and the player is out, sometimes never to return. A recent case in court by a junior All Black ended up with him out forever regardless of potential.

    Sad to say that compared to England the Kiwis have a national pride in their country that just cannot be found in ours.
