Re: England v Barbarians

Well I'm glad the roast was good because that 1st half was dire!

At least the Devon v Yorkshire game earlier in the day was entertaining.

England v Barbarians

(As it is England, I hope so :D)

Re: Turned off.

Looking at those viewing figures, there are probably more people watching in the UK!
With those numbers, what would you estimate the viewing figures to be for, let's say, Japan V USA in the 2011 World Cup?

Was Rolland really that bad :wink:
I thought most things he picked Ulster up on were fair enough, the problem was that he appeared to just let most things go for the other team!

Re: Will Eddie O' Sullivan be sacked?

I will be very pleasantly surprised if he does walk.
