Seem to believe their own propaganda and their play doesn’t match the swagger.White Riot wrote: ↑Sat Feb 21, 2026 3:01 pm Dunno what's happened with them Swannie?
Two weeks in a row their opponents are running right through them.
They look all over the shop, and Borthwick could be catching a taxi soon.
Awful performances, and something is very wrong in that England camp.
Scotland and Ireland play and behave with a lot more humility.
France are just operating at a whole other level beyond the other 5 teams. They look unstoppable at the moment.

Re: Rugby Union - 6 Nations
Aye, it seems like the French are gonna coast it now. Though, Italy will give them a match tomorrow.
England have just completely folded at the start of their last two matches. They seem shocked that teams are not lying down for them.
I expected much more from England.
There is a comparison with our cricketers who seem to believe their own bullshit without backing it up with performance.

Re: Rugby Union - 6 Nations
I don’t think the French will steamroller Italy, Italy are a difficult team to play against sometimes and will do their best to disrupt and frustrate France , Les Bleu will probably win but it might not be that easy the can be very temperamental at times and are quite often their own worst enemy

Re: Rugby Union - 6 Nations
Aye, but a great, hard fought physical battle Cussie.
It was nice to see Wales playing with pride after some of the batterings they've taken recently.
I only saw bits and pieces of it as I expected Ireland would trounce them, but they showed a lot of heart.
Decent match imo.

Re: Rugby Union - 6 Nations
It was indeed Riot, Ireland got off to a fast start & it looked like they were going to run away with it but Wales put them under a lot of pressure and it could have gone either way. Scotland/France could be a cracker today but I can’t see the French throwing it away now.White Riot wrote: ↑Fri Mar 06, 2026 10:28 pm Aye, but a great, hard fought physical battle Cussie.

Would be nice if the Jocks can make a match of it, but I can see France walloping them and England.CUSSIE01 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 07, 2026 7:38 am It was indeed Riot, Ireland got off to a fast start & it looked like they were going to run away with it but Wales put them under a lot of pressure and it could have gone either way.

Italy will give England a hard match, and Borthwick is already on borrowed time imo.
