His ACLs are getting married this week... The rest of him isn't.

Watched the Hendooo incident. Joseph is the sole player at fault

Guscott basically says Hendo isn't English enough... Garland no doubt believes that he's no where near Welsh enough...

Feck the Lions.... It's just an England and small England glory hoak....

[Russ]

The Welsh fell apart under the pressure today

Tipuric forgot to defend his fly half
Biggar went for the miracle tackles
0.5p couldnt be arsed (doesnt have any skills)
North missed a sitter then gave away a butt load of penalties

Have no doubt about this game would have been won without the welsh

Just made a wee tweak there for you Russ, just in case you wanted to get a quote on Sky, BBC or the mainland papers....

They've cut me off for not towing the party line

thought you could argue that Henderson should have score or been awarded a penalty try due to a high tackle on the line and being pulled back by the neck .

And as for the knock on try . the ball was out of his hands before he touched down.

Henderson's tip lift I was scared he was going for the red like French refs do that sort of thing or have done in the past .

All so of note was the neat little body check and elbow to the head of bigger before the touch down

A very physical I your face game with a lot of gamesmanship by the Canes

I can see Best and Henderson and Stander being either picked or on the bench for the third test .

Don't see them recovering sufficiently after that 80 min work out for this weekend

English media won't write any sentence about Hendo without mentioning Lawes. The hope is that people will merge their performances today.

Waankland's pack:

Mako Owens Sinckler
AWJ Itoje (Lawes on bench)
SOB Waankburton Faletau

He had a headache.
Genuinely.
You couldn't make it up.

As for the Hendo card Russ is bang on.
Hendo cleared but Joseph picked the other leg which with the aid of slow mo makes it looks so much worse.
Ridiculous really, ok a penalty but the cards a joke.

Done us proud Hendo did but again I'll agree with Baggy in that he's got to back these performances up.

Awj and Warbuton in the pack we might as well give up

[Spiffsson]

AWJ shouldn't be on tour never mind the team. Feck all to do with freshness.
Leaderships skills me hole.
Be as well wheeling out Willie John for the same effect.

Reminds me of the most ridiculous geographical selection ever, Tony O'Reilly when he was about 100, but was working in London and had a pair of boots.

Arriving for practice in a car with "his man servant" behind the wheel a porky O'Reilly shuffled around whilst the real players were practicing. In his team talk after the serious business, Willie John is alleged to have turned to him and said, "as for you Reilly, your best plan today with your opponent is to shake yer jowls at him".

I believe the tubby O'Reilly was also told that at least his opposite number would not get around him, since the distance was too great.
There was also apparently a cry from the crowd during the actual game " We shoudda played the chauffeur."
