    @Disgusted-of-TW You're right about Greenwood, it was an intercept of sorts - more that the Irish guy passed it to him than an actual intentional intercept and he sauntered over line going further and further away from the sticks before dotting down in the corner. Despite us being about 30 points to the good I was screaming at the TV for him to go under the posts. From memory it didn't matter as I'm pretty sure Wilkinson nailed the conversion anyway.

    Happy days for an Englishman.

    Maybe he had been watching a bit of Carlos Spencer?

      @Crucial King Carlos landed the conversion also, did he not? Great fun to watch when he had the force with him, I was so pleased when he came to play in the UK, even though he never consistently hit the heights that he was capable of. Plus ca change, though, I guess.

        Well Barnes has set his shocker decision out early. Deciding to review and yellow card Vakatawa for a very innocuous "deliberate" knock on, while not even bothering to review Williams' blatantly deliberate knock on and Halfpenny's very similar knock on didn't even get penalised. What the fuck goes through your head Wayne.

          France beat Wales in just under 100 minutes in a Barnes farce, he did his best to let Wales win but couldn't pull it off.

              Fun to watch, it's a free for all at ruck time

              Ireland heaps of ball and plenty of vigour, but England defending well.

                A lot of holding off the ball from both teams and some tasty late hits going in

                  England will win this, for all Ireland's ball, 10 points isn't enough

                    That loop is so easy to read and Ireland are getting caught miles behind the advantage line

                        Are you kidding?

                        He didn't have a clue all match about the scrum. In regulation, Wales got pinged incorrectly.

                        In the extra 20 mins, France should have had a penalty try about 5 mins in.

                        Shambles

                            Ireland are good at controlling possession , that's what they have to do for 5 minutes

                                      Or not. England were coming in the back of their scrum and their maul. Then that catch against the throw and that was the game.

                                      England just couldn't get any ball.

                                      O'Mahoney the difference at the death.

                                          A couple penalties each way and it's all over.
