Noticeable just how much mouthing off there was in the game today? Rugby going to the dogs
 
The egg chasers mouthing off! Surely not. They don't do that as any rugby fan will tell you, dissent only happens in the round ball game!!!!!!
 
Can someone explain how a rugby match lasts 20 minutes longer than it should?
Put simply, the game has to come to a legal completion. This means a stoppage where one team or the other has not been penalised for an offence. The Wales team repeatedly offended at the scrum resulting in the France team being awarded a penalty. This was a choice penalty, one of many they have in RU, where it's a penalty at the point of the offence or a scrum. The France team asked for the scrum, where the Wales team committed an offence... rinse... repeat...

It went on so long that a player sent to the sin bin was able to re-join the game. The France team also exploited the rule where a player suspected of having incurred a head injury has to be assessed by a doctor, meaning he is replaced. They used that to introduce a fresh/rested player which placed more pressure on the Wales scrum who were already struggling because one of their players was off the field.

Fascinating contest, glad to see the right team won.

Currently avoiding, a la the Likely Lads, the score from the Ireland vs England game. Sinne Fianna Fáil...
 
You have got it all wrong. It is the new post "Brexit" rules....
When in Europe, the game continues until the Europeans win; when in the UK, it is until we win - See Leicesters game - played in England, so we win!

IT is the new normal, there is no way the UK will win anything in Europe again. The six nations will exclude France and Ireland and be replaced by Yorkshire (as they think they are God's own Country) and become 5 nations again.:rolleyes:

There's no 'think' about it.........
 
There is a bit of Yorkie bias on here unfortunately, basically there are members that are usually right, and there are non-believers of Gods superior creations like Lancastrians and the Essex Boys!! ;)
 
I think you will find that the best and finest around come from God's own country Ireland and more specifically from the County of Down!

How the did the all conquering superior race of egg chasers on their world domination do at the weekend? Oh that's right they were beaten by a tiny island with a population less than most of their cities.....shoulder to shoulder, we answer Ireland's call! :smoke:
