[RWC2023 Bronze Final] Argentina vs England (27/10/2023)

[Jimbo]

kick. kick. kick. God, how boring

Conceding pens and scoring nothing so far of more interest to you?

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Depressing to think what could've been if we showed even a fraction of the commitment we've shown this/last game over the rest of the year

We're like Dash in the school race, settling for 3rd to make everyone else feel good, or something like that.

Of course it's Stuart giving away the first penalty.

 

[BrokenWing]

Just going to ignore him stepping behind his own players then? Ok…

To be fair it says quite a lot about our play that we all immediately assumed he was talking about England…

You know I've argued with a few on here about SB. I think it's taken time to build up the basics and the defensive pattern how they want to play. Its not perfect..but they're showing now what they're about.

I fully expect the in 6n to start and develop the attack....and they could be a team that others won't enjoy playing.

We must have a better tight head than Stuart.

Regarding that penalty... Nigel Owens recently pointed out that there is no law saying you can't put your hands on the ground at the breakdown - its only if you do that to steady yourself and support your bodyweight.
The way commentators talk about it you'd think it was simply illegal to touch the ground with your fingers

He started last week

 

[Booboobang]

I am fine with faz staying around, but good lord he shouldnt be anywhere near captaincy, the way he talks to refs is just bound to rub them the wrong way.

Statement from Genge considering they chose to scrum there

 

[BrokenWing]

It’s all about that painting a picture isn’t it.

Putting your hands on the floor gives the wrong impression.

 

[HenryChinaski]

Wayyy. Arrogant shits

 

[Ferrari333SP]

From a forwards perspective, I think England should be set for the next few years

 

[Booboobang]

Stuart gets so much disrespect; he is far better than many want to admit. Solid player.

 

[Vieux Talonneur]

Steward would have taken that.

 

[Pieter Steph du Teague]

Stuart gets so much disrespect; he is far better than many want to admit. Solid player.

My opinion is he’s capable of being really good but he’s also capable of being really really bad.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Stuart gets so much disrespect; he is far better than many want to admit. Solid player.

His issue is he is pretty thick and gives away so many penalties.

If Stuart has million haters, then I'm one of them.
If Stuart has one hater, then I'm THAT ONE.
If Stuart has no haters, that means I'm dead.

 

[Booboobang]

My opinion is he’s capable of being really good but he’s also capable of being really really bad.

Sure, like most of our props. But in an england shirt more often than not he has been good/decent. Only 27 and one of few not ancient english props that starts week in week out.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

His issue is he is pretty thick and gives away so many penalties.

Also he's bad at rugby and has rubbish hair
