glrnet Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 Yeah, I think England have won the games they are going to win, got tickets for the England/Wales game but going with two Welshmen, very good mates but I think it might be a long day!!! Great game but I think Scotland were denied a try with that call from the ref. Triple Crown has to be on the cards now! I have to say I'd be very surprised if Wales don't secure the Triple Crown. The England set up is very much a work in progress who are scraping their way through at the moment, and Wales look like they have carried over their good from from the RWC. Quote

Well if you have a spare ticket do you fancy making it three Welshman? Quote
glrnet Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 How much pain can one Englishman take in one day? I remember very clearly 1999 at Wembley when Scott Gibbs went over under the posts and we lost 31-32, the same mates were with me and several other Englishmen, as we walked rather forlornly out of Wembley a charming Welsh gentleman enquired "what are you going to do now that the wheels have fallen of your bloody chariot boyo?". Not only did Scotty Gibbs go down in Welsh rugby folklore, that gent went down in the folklore of our rugby club, needless to say it was a long evening!!!! Rugby, I love it Yeah, I think England have won the games they are going to win, got tickets for the England/Wales game but going with two Welshmen, very good mates but I think it might be a long day!!! Well if you have a spare ticket do you fancy making it three Welshman? Quote
geoff-r Posted February 26, 2012 Posted February 26, 2012 The English went quiet apart from the fact that we didn't play very well yesterday we got the win on English soil! Triple Crown to us, only France pose a slight problem now, I'd hope Italy don't. Quote
HaydnH Posted February 26, 2012 Posted February 26, 2012 I'm struggling this morning, not sure when the last time I was this hungover was. What the hell happened yesterday?!? I have a vague recollection of us winning the game... and then everythings a blur! Quote
rhys1344 Posted February 26, 2012 Posted February 26, 2012 Hang over hurts... but victory over the english on twickenham soil is worth it!! Try yes or no at the end?? If it was, flood would of had to convert it to equalise..and he ain't the best goal kicker now is he Quote
geoff-r Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 It wasn't a try at the end, in any case didn't Lawes have his legs in the way of the only shot that could have proved conclusive? I swear Halfpenny got knocked for six in that tackle at the end, he didn't have a clue what was going on after the tackle, glad he wasn't hurt though. Quote
AK350Z Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 No try, there was no convincing downward pressure on the ball looking at the video. Quote
rhys1344 Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 From watching over and over, the ball rolled over his arm.. with nothing donwards there. George North's hit on farrell was immense!!!! And warburtons tackle on Tuilagi Quote
HaydnH Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 Looking forward to today, come on Wales! BTW, I bought some of these last year, I didn't realise until they arrived that they each had an individual number on them... and mine are number 350 purely by chance! OOOH and the song on the BBC coverage while they're talking about the grand slam chance is my favourite The Cinematic Orchestra song! AWESOME! Quote
HaydnH Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 Please Scotland - no wooden spoon! Tough call that, I wouldn't like to have money either way! Quote
Cragus Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 Please Scotland - no wooden spoon! Tough call that, I wouldn't like to have money either way! I'm off to get beer to numb the pain just incase! Quote
JetSet Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 Well done Wales ....... deserved I think Yeah, congrats to Wales. They do pretty well considering that Rugby is only played at a serious level in South East Wales. Pete Quote
