England set for two-match 2020 tour to Japan?

If you want to blame Mo’unga for not leading the All Blacks to victory in those circumstances then there is no reasoning with you.

It was an incredible second half performance by Reihana who set up two tries with offloads and had the courage and brains to run at the line when there was nothing on rather than mindlessly kick the ball away.

Start Proctor at 13 for the France series and then we can evaluate whether he is a test 13 or not.

We already know what Ioane can (defend) and can’t (distribute) do at 13.

There is no chance that a healthy Taylor is not selected for the 2027 RWC.

He has had years to upskill but has not. This is on him and no one else.

I do not see a 30 year old starting at wing at the 2027 RWC but willing to give Ioane a shot at wing vs France to see what he’s still got now.

I think personally I don’t mind lads that’ve come up and paid there dues being eligable, Tuipolotu is a slightly different case through his Scottish granny but in the case of the Irish players they’ve all come in and intergrated into the communities they’re reguarly out and about giving back, Aki is beloved in Galway. Lowe and Gibson Park have settled down in Ireland and while I can’t speak on other nations imports (because they are and I’m not blind to that) I’d imagine that they’re in a similar situation.

I see you’re not ok with southern teams doing it either but it does seem to be this one way avenue of criticism in general on this site and others which is quite frustrating given the hypocrasy of it to give out about other countries doing it when your own does it as well, I’m not calling you all hypocrites for selecting them I’m not a complete idiot, but I am saying if there’s such a strong objection to us doing it then why aren’t you calling out your own unions, thats the hypocrasy. It’s all mud slinging at the end of the day and I’m leaving this article alone after this but thats it anyway.

A bunch of you all need to stay ‘coaching’ the game on Xbox.

Secondly rassie was director of rugby so technically no head coach has been banned have they… I know “technicality!!” But doesn't change the facts or you only care able technicalities facts when it suits your narrative?

Finally, where's the info on the 2014 sanction? See you rambled on about rassie but didn't give any additional info or context for the supposed supersport or SARU sanction. Look I don't take issue with you stating opinion, but i do take issue with you slinging around nonsense under the pre tense “we all know” and “everyone understands” and that it's only saffas. If you're bias and bigoted that's cool… just stand behind your opinion rather than pretend to act as spokesperson for the rest of the world

Though I have criticized Razor for putting unnecessary pressure on him. He acts like “ahh were just giving him a chance to learn his craft” but he’s bs, he has an intense pressure increasing vibe about him. It’s possible that the environment rather than the opposition was doing it then.
