I've watched 30s and already heard "NUMBERS!" That drinking game in the previous thread would have me in trouble by now.

That England might have turned up as well.

That England doesn't know what attacking is. I think England are playing ok, but they're inexperienced and France are playing well.

Just as France should've been up more at half time, England should've gotten two scores up by now. And might regret not getting there.

I wonder if Warren Gatland will follow-through on his promise to pick the Fly-Half with the "best current form", because The Ospreys just put 11 try's past Treviso, and were disallowed another 4.

If Treviso are bad enough to ship 11 trys, then clearly they're not good enough opposition for all that scoring to matter :colbert:

I my favourite part of the match yesterday was when England blew a five on one overlap and you can hear Jiffy going "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"

I was playing the drinking game at the time, and was terribly relieved that he was so horrified that he couldn't even yell "Numbers!".

Watching the England vs Wales match today with a friend who is English and not really that into rugby.

I've told him the two possible outcomes are Wales get totally trounced by England as we've played poorly so far OR all the talent we didn't put in the other games has been saved for this match and Wales will have a stunning come back performance.

I think that covers all the bases.

3rd option. Both teams massively bottle it and give us a stunning display of northern hemisphere rugby and we all.gouge our eyes out by the end of the game.

If he drops Twelvetrees I think we should start to get worried about Lancaster being good.

I thought Twelvetrees was alright today, and we're not exactly overburdened by great centres.

I'll be interested to see who gets dropped when Tuilagi's back.

We still need to score 40 points to make this interesting, and we're going to lose so much pressure due to our weak scrum.

It's nice to watch England go balls to the wall for a change, but it's going to be pretty meaningless.
