When I was a young man I carried me pack.

Love David Pocock

From Twickenham's green field to the dusty outback
I carried the gainline over

Its a metre forward WTF

Edit: more than 2M Poite knew it too LOL

Couldn't tell really I thought. So, so sharp though. England just look so dozy in contrast.

Australia are outstanding here. Even have the dominant scrum which is highly unusual for them.

Not sure what angle you saw, looked flat / marginally forward imo.

Aussie scrum half isn't great plus their second rows are journey men. Everywhere else they are excellent if a little threadbare on the bench. England are done.

[Raoul Duke III]

This is a bit of a reality check. We're the best Northern hemisphere team but we're nowhere near as superior to England as the Aussies are.

The one from behind shown just before he awards you can clearly see the ball leaving his hand as he steps across the change of colour on the grass and when Beale touches it first he was closer to the next strip.
Absolutely nailed on forward pass.

Nonetheless everything RD3 says is true. Before that try England walked to the line out with their heads down, no one was speaking to anyone. They looked like a tired and beaten team playing a game that doesn't matter.

The Pass travelled forward but clearly left the hands going back. Not even a debate imo. The rule is very clear.

We have a structure and a gameplan which makes a big difference. The Aussies are very skilful but not unbeatable.

I can't see the trajectory as it leaves his hand but I'd have thought it is nigh on impossible to move it that far forward unless you have propelled it forward

But obv Poite saw it that way.

[6starpool]

Australia just making far fewer mistakes in the game which is the difference really.

Good try for England though as I post.

Ford has made a big difference. Just underlining the daftness of the original selection (this week and last).

[KevIRL]

Aussies are gonna bottle this ffs

[6starpool]

Jesus bbv, stop showing your power with Aussie mistakes.

Lancaster should take lessons from Mourinho in losing the head after getting trashed at home. Not a flicker.

[TheDrunkenOne]

wonder will all those adverts on ITV with English team will stop?

[Strewelpeter]

Between SA today and the Aussies tonight its suddenly feeling a bit like the way the All Ireland turns every August when the real teams show up

Australia to win the pool 9/4. Look good?

4/9 now..

[dobby]

I don't understand the group and points system in rugby. Are England gone now with no chance of qualifying? I had a soccer game so didn't see the rugby.

He has to be sacked now massive failure someone's head has to be chopped. No English open side the speed hooper and Pocock got back on there feet after every tackle every ruck was impressive. Big lol at the English saying all week how they would dominate the forward exchanges. The oz scrum was the most consistent in the 4 nations. Giteau was excellent an old man in rugby terms.

And yet the same people came up with the terrible driving instructor version.

[KevIRL]

On the plus side, if they beat Uruguay, England will avoid having to go through the qualifiers for the next world cup.

[Guest]

Guess prince Harrys midweek peptalk wasn't sufficiently churchillian

[CHDad]

Not even Chelsea can take the shine off watching the English get KO'd from their own world cup with a group game to spare.

Sweet.

DPs Mrs sent me this pic that was taken at their wedding, love it so checked http://www.hellocanvas.ie/ and saw an offer on for 50x70cm for only 39 quid, so obv sent it off. dying to see it. love that site , such a great pic with my oldest best friend be nice to have, fuck knows where im gonna put it though lol

Hmm Cian O'Neill gets the Kildare job, Glen Ryan not a happy man I'd guess.

There is a fair smell of politics about it. I'm lucky enough not to know anything about their machinations and to care less. But I'd speculate wildly that having the team of Ryan with Rainbow Earley and Doyle that was said to be a done deal last week would be a bit too player centric for the county board types.

Probably the first good decision Kildare county board has made regarding team management in 5 years. Chose a proven winner who has been involved in all Ireland winning set ups over someone who has been involved in Laois club football. I know one of the main sponsors was strongly against the Ryan team.

He has also been away from the County for some time so has no historical baggage with the players. Nailed on to get out of Div 3 and will carry some momentum into championship but then he will really have to prove his worth. It will be interesting to hear what county board / fans will consider as success . Hard to see them winning a Leinster in the next 3 years so does it come down to how well they do in the qualifiers? Getting to a 1/4 final hasn't been enough for the last few managers.

MU go tops today if they win? Thought, purely based on here, that they were still shite. Or maybe they are shite and the results flatter to deceive?

Bit of an odd one tbh. They are clearly not a great side and Rooney is performing woefully however their new wonderkid Martial is promising, but LVG has to manage him carefully to ensure he is not a flash in a pan. Dice would be a better man than I to comment on this but I think the next three league games will tell us a lot about how good or bad they are and how serious their title credentials are. Their next three games are against arsenal, Everton and Man city I think.

Exciting times for Utd...

United do not have serious title credentials. They have CSKA away sandwiched between Everton and City. It's a horrible run of fixtures. The results do flatter to deceive imo. It's nice to be knocking around the top spot now but I'd happily take a top 4 finish next May.

Some day of football today, and the rugby thrown in for good measure.

SPORTS!!!

[TheDrunkenOne]

Googled English rugby manager Stuart Lancaster and see he didnt play at international level and wasnt a successful coach either with only one winning season?

Why was he made head coach?

[luckforsome]

...Would anyone have a link for the french horse racing by any chance?...Appreciated if do :-)...
