Siegsieg eat your heart out!

Kwagga Smith!? Fantastic name. Looked a tidy player in general, hope he makes it.

Scotland I think. It was Scotland - Ireland - England - Wales leading into the final game. Ireland's lineout bombed last game, England's didn't go too well iirc, Wales went well, so I imagine it...

Best's throwing has been ho-hum all season tbh.

Thing is, Best is a technically proficient thrower with a big flaw in that if things start going wrong, it gets to him. Which means, if you pair him...

Pretty much same as last time.

Don't forget Hogg coming in on Wade's man and leaving the try scorer absolutely free.

Idle point - not intended to defend Best - but I wonder what the wind was like down there... neither side achieving over 70pc with goalkicking or lineout percentages is pretty abnormal.

I refuse to give a rating of ok to any flanker whose team concedes so many turnover penalties. Again, might have picked up after I turned off, but the breakdown work was inexcusable for all I smell...

Not that I saw. I saw an unexpected change of direction and whatshisface walk through Kearney's inside shoulder like it wasn't there, largely because it wasn't there. Maybe he picked up a lot after I...

Complete turnstile for the Brumbies try.

No, those are his, and it is his big weakness that when things are going poorly he lets them get to it. The throw to Gray could have been better as well - but -they are also far from his own fault....

Maybe there's some bias at work here, but Best is not responsible for a call with no movement and an obvious target that allows the Brumbies to get a man in front of Gray at the same time - no delay,...

This - we're lucky to have one guy in support most of the time - but where's everything? Nothing's working, and I'm amazed we're only 5 down. It should be more, we're very lucky its not. With the...

Crap call though - no movement allowed the Brumbies to get up ahead of Gray very easily. The O'Brien one to the front should have got higher too. Best isn't doing great, but the whole lineout is an...

Warburton didn't make many in 2010 either - which merely backs up my perception as stands. Granted, players improve and injuries happen, so maybe the World Cup form is his true form, but right now it...

Consider me most wroth. Incensed even. I want to see some bloody good reviews of the gameplay before I put down money for a product I have to finish doing the work on again. I brought the last one to...

I find it a pretty plausible stat. Testrugby.com records 3, all of them made in the 2011 Six Nations, which incidentally was by far and away his best carrying tournament according to them. Its all...

This quote needs to live forever.

It also means I think das is only using one hand when she types on here during games.

Six :P Three of them in 2009, quite a few significant sub appearances as well. So yeah, he hasn't had the opportunity for a while, and a fair bit has changed. I am happy to get those chances. Until...

Last time Wilson had sustained England minutes against serious level opposition, he didn't look better than Cole. I liked how Wilson did, but he's got to repeat that against someone a fair deal...

Well they have to give every player a start iirc, tournament regs. Coulda swore Sweetnam has come on at full-back for Ireland U20s at least, I know Scholes hasn't played there despite it being his...

Seems odd to switch Scholes and Sweetnam now.

edit: Considering how good Ireland have been this tournament, and how close they came to a semi-final place, there has to be a real 'what if' about...

Its better than a still hungover Andy Nicol on the bench for a test isn't it?

Good memories?

That said, I must take exception with your views on the centres. Tuilagi is not one-dimensional, the end of his season for Leicester and the Lions have shown superb hands. If...
