Kick the ball away when you need to score and there's less than a minute left. Good going.

45 seconds on the clock, and you need a try to level the scores. Why, of course, a box kick is the best idea here. Idiots.

Have the 6N accepted the CVC money yet? I'm saving my bile for when they sign and the union chiefs all pat themselves on the back with a girthy bonus, leaving the rest of us to look forward to watching Grand Slam deciders on Premier Sports or Amazon Prime or Disney plus or wherever else CVC tell them to sell the broadcast rights to.

I do like that he had a laugh at himself with the ball in both hands. It'll hopefully give his confidence a boost and get him back to his best.
