Six Nations 2008

[Edmundo]

Well done Taffy. But is it yet another false dawn?

 

[Banana]

Can't complain I suppose

 

[Les Beeavinu]

Well done Taffy. But is it yet another false dawn?

How can a Grand Slam be a false dawn? lol

 

[Luton Bee]

Congratulations to the side that made fewer mistakes than any other. It's a sign of just how rubbish Northern hemisphere rugby is at the moment that a side that simply defends and waits for the opposition to make a mistake, can whitewash all the others.

 

[Les Beeavinu]

How very generous.

I think you have got your teams mixed up. Who scored the most tries this season? It most certainly wasn't England, but after all these years, they might have just learnt something at last. In dropping Johnny boy they just might try to play 15 man rugby rather than the trash England served up until today.

Well, how well did Wales do after the last one? They certainly didn't go on to dominate European rugby then. However, with Gatland and Edwards in charge I can see them being a force for a while, until France and England get their acts together, anyway.

if you want to pass judgement on rubbish Northern Hemisphere rugby over the past couple of decades you should drive to Twickenham.

 

[Edmundo]

So how many times in the past couple of decades did Wales win at Twickenham?

Well, how well did Wales do after the last one? .

What have England achieved in Assocation Football since 1966?

****ing hell mate - you are getting desperate.

 

[Banana]

What has Ramsey achieved after getting 3 Michelin Stars?

 

[Les Beeavinu]

Well, how well did Wales do after the last one?

They won it again three years later!

 

[Banana]

What have Liverpool achieved after winning the European Cup?

 

[Banana]

What did England do after winning the Ashes?

I suppose we can expect the entire Wales team to be knighted now

 

[Banana]

They won it again three years later!

You forgot to name all those nations that won the Grand Slam in the intervening 2 years

 

[Luton Bee]

What did England do after winning the Ashes?

I presume you mean England and Wales?

 

[Banana]

I presume you mean England and Wales?

I mean "England". As you and I know it should be called "England & Wales", especially after contributing G Jones MBE of the Pacific Ocean.

Nevertheless, I am sure you get my point

 

[Les Beeavinu]

I presume you mean England and Wales?

You're right - they haven't been the same since the injury to Simon Jones. :cantbelievehisluckashetapsinfromayardout:

What have the Allies won since WWII

 

[Banana]

What has Nelson won since 1815 :shrug:

 

[Edmundo]

What has Nelson won since 1815 :shrug:

A free transfer to Orient.

What have England achieved in Assocation Football since 1966?

And what have Wales achieved in Football ever

 

[SmiffyBee]

What have England achieved in Assocation Football since 1966?

More Uefa Cup, Champions League, Cup Winners Cup, Fairs Cup, FA Cup, Football League and League Cup winners than any Welsh team, that's for certain.

Short Answer = England may be under achievers, but we are better than Wales.

And what have Wales achieved in Football ever

They poached Ryan Giggs, by honey trapping his father before he was born.



ps, Well done to Wales on their 6 Nations Grand Slam

I am sure you know that you are missing the point that Edmundo's that this is "a false dawn" is a mealey mouthed comment typical of the moderators on this board.

What has Robin Hood achieved in archery since splinting the arrow?

What have Fullers achieved in brewing since London Pride?

What have Brentford achieved since (insert honour)?

 

[Carri Bee Un]

ps, Well done to Wales on their 6 Nations Grand Slam

Just watched the highlights, quite nicely done I thought.

 

[TW3Bee]

England were so close though.

OK they lost to Wales but only because of a mad 5 or 10 minutes and The sweaties always raise their game against England as they think it's more important to beat us than anyone else.

I'm going to surprise a few people and I'm gonna say it quietly

well done wales

There that didn't hurt.

 

[Johnny Bravo]

Well done Wales


England came second above them frogs!

England were so close though.

Wales 5 5 0 0 148 66 10
England 5 3 0 2 108 83 6
France 5 3 0 2 103 93 6

I agree, they were so close to 3rd place

Well if they hadn't lost a game they had in the bad against wales, you never know do you.

 

[rebus]

England were so close though.

Nowhere near close. Wales were the best team in this year's campaign and desrved to win. England only seem to produce at present when everyone is writing them off, and by then it's too late.

Need to see some brave selections from now on.

Starting with the coach.
