All kicks off again tomorrow, with an inexperienced bunch of England forwards facing a gigantic Springbok pack. Oooer missus. England need to turn a corner fast to go into next years World Cup with any confidence. The Irish still looking strongest of the home nations, surely Gatland has little new to give Wales, Scotland have improved massively but will need to keep it going.
I think I read somewhere that England have something like 18 players out injured. It's going to be hard for Jones to turn things around and gain some momentum with so many injuries imo. South Africa could give England quite a beating tomorrow.
Glad I’m not working tommorow as it takes about 2 hours to get out of the Ambulance station on Rugby days.....just what you need after a 12 hour shift
My daughter was born in the West Mid in Isleworth. The traffic round there is ****ed up at the best of times.
It still is mate.....I’m working at 1845 tonight at Hanwell and reckon I’ll have to leave at about 1715 just to get there in time and check the truck over etc.....one of the reasons I hate nights.
Typical public sector employee, moaning all the time...... ......take care Stainsey, it’s colds and flu season.
Well yeah, any atmosphere wouldn't come from the England supporters with that Swing Low dirge, would it? It's not just the crowd though, it's the stadium itself - all concrete and exposed pipes. Just functional and plain ugly.
If England manage more than a win against Japan they'll be doing well, the other three games look beyond them at this stage of our season based on last years form. Two years ago we seemed set to take on the world but it's all gone Pete Tong for Eddie...
As a moaning NHS employee I have been persuaded to have my flu jab I’m more worried about the vomit that seems to be coming my way tonight
I just watched, or was required to because the wife wanted to, one of those fly on the wall 999 emergency documentaries earlier, focussing on you blokes responding to mental health emergencies. You have my respect sir.
Col, I haven’t got a clue about rugby union to be honest but if you are right then SA look massive value at 6/5..... Am I missing something ?
It's the inexperience of the England forwards going up against one of the toughest SA packs for some time that concerns me. England are usually tough to beat at Twickenham and do have very dangerous backs, so it could be close
It might help if they learnt a few more of the words. The Welsh supporters are a different matter, of course. This is well worth a watch if you have half an hour to spare....
