that was very very competitive
Blimey.
Bracing myself now for a weekend's wife gloating (she's a scot) with E vs I to come.
I think the cocktail hour might move forward a tad.
That was a wrong decisiuon. he had no chance to avoid contact and there was no intent. Yellow? fine ok, but red lost the game. Bad day. TMO's are way too inluential and the game is losing its way under a welter of safety regulations. I admire the hunt for player protection but there must be some way to allow a physical game to flow whilst keeping players injury free.I’m kinda OK this year as Mrs Wb is Welsh. But hoping to see something from England today, even if not a win.
Congratulations to Ireland!An historic first grand slam win for Ireland on home territory.
I’m not a huge rugby fan but winning the grand slam against England is as good as it gets.

Bit late, now. Glad he can play again immediately though. I couldn't see how he could have done much to change the course of events, at the time.
Protective headgear does not reduce the g forces the brain experiences. It just makes tacklers more reckless as they feel safer.Got to think that if they are now so worried about head injuries that a player can be carded for a reflex reaction..... surely its time to institute mandatory protective head-gear?
