    The aura is ended even when we win?

    "New Zealand played out time to preserve their one-point lead in a match, which, although it did not finish in England's favour, ended any aura of infallibility concerning New Zealand in the heads of Dylan Hartley and his team."

      Even if the whinging poms try was allowed to stand who’s up say we wouldn’t have scored again ourselves?

        He may have been on side IF they were playing the old way of when a 9 touches the ball (although he still looked offside anyway being a step in front of the line) but it infuriated me how long Youngs would stand there hands on and we have to stay back....you reap what you sow fellas, this is how the game, particularly the NH games have been policed for a few years now (take note Marshall)

          @taniwharugby yeah good point, the offside is more obvious if it is ruled as when TJP actually picks it up rather than just touches it. Conor Murray is to blame for that, he's been taking the piss at the back of the ruck for years.

                  Maybe some karma as well after last week's non-penalty for the Farrell tackle.

                  From the interviews I saw from Farrell, Ashton and Jones, none are whinging so bravo to them.

                      I've been told that Mystique was in Sao Paulo with the Maori All Blacks. Not sure it helped.

                        After the 2007 Rwc and the behaviour of the overseas press and “ neutral “ fans I have no fucks to give about whining when we win on a tight call .

                          Any karma was for the whinging to WR after Italy made them look stupid for not knowing the ruck laws.

                                Maybe this should be in the bogan thread? 😉

                                      Good to see Healey living what he preaches when he asks for consistency.

                                      He was a cock as a player and he's still a cock as a commentator.

                                        If he is searching for answers it is there in his own words when he admits that the English only played well for 20 minutes. I quite liked the Austin Healey as a car and well restored ones fetch good prices these days.

                                          That's why I read The guardian and not the Tory graph. Another so called expert still judging from the rules of his era.

                                          That, and the paywall.
