[RWC2019][Pool C] Round 1 - England vs. Tonga (22/09/2019)

[bushytop]

See this what worries me about the Welsh none of you taffs are worried about losing your backs coach right before the tournament. And it shows how much of a detriment Howley was!

All part of the plan ncurd, lure the world into thinking we are THE bluntest attacking force on the globe, then publicly sacrifice our attacking coach to the media gods for their blessings, while installing the guy who quickly transformed the Scarlets from nonentity to an attacking highlight reel.

Gats has consulted Celtic mystics on this one.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Yeah still think England should sing Jerusalem as our National anthem during the WC.

 

[bushytop]

This isn’t the BBC.

What would S4C do?

A couple of New Zealander’s with ‘Welsh’ grannies I’d wager... PS I’m Robert Howley, so I’d wager a wedge!

Incidentally, I can't tell but during that silence I think one of the crowd members just got stabbed.

As much as I have a problem about singing about Queen these days I couldn't abide having a Christian hymn either.

Weren't there two Welsh commentators on a game yesterday?

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Yeah that was good Haka.

Two Welsh, two games... Shane on France vs Arg and Doc on NZ vs SA.

I have been an advocate of having a proper national anthem. But I suppose that is a discussion for another thread.

Disgusting levels of bias, Wales aren't even playing this weekend

When you say ‘proper’, what would you imagine the ‘content’ would be... harsh truths?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Billy was born in Australia what the **** are they on about

There were also two English commentators on Australia v Fiji.

I'm just saying that it would be nice to hear a neutral view.

Farrell being targeted early
Cheap shot after the whistle there

Wonder why.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Weird decision to kick,
Almost worked though

tough one. Anything that doesn’t include the royal family and maybe god should be left out of it for the non religious. Should it be just for England or one to cover also Wales, Scotland and NI is another question. Probably one just for England, seeing as W, S and Ireland have their own,

Tongan 9's calves are going to win this game
