Comments on: England put away Scotland……Just! http://www.ruckingball.com/2011/10/england-put-away-scotland-just/ Rugby Development Thu, 14 Feb 2013 22:54:00 +0000 hourly 1 By: Georgie Cooper http://www.ruckingball.com/2011/10/england-put-away-scotland-just/comment-page-1/#comment-5668 Georgie Cooper Tue, 04 Oct 2011 08:09:00 +0000 http://www.ruckingball.com/?p=11822#comment-5668 I agree Haydn. Scotland were unlucky not to go through however I think they have paid for a lack of any consistent threat through scoring tries. If they get that right they will rise back up the rankings and be threat to any team. I would be wary of France. In the last World Cup France were pretty rubbish and the All Blacks sublime. However it was France who pulled out a great game, their only one of the tournament to proceed to the semi final. I would also add that I am sick of our press digging for "controversy" when there blatantly isn't any. The latest article on the BBC website says: Rugby World Cup 2011: Tuilagi fined for wearing sponsored gumshield This headline tries insintuates that he has been paid to wear a branded gumshield and that he has deliberalty broken the rules. They continue this line of thought for the first paragraph. However read a little further and you discover that actually it was his U18 England gum shield and he has just been wearing that one since then. No mailice or fore thought given. I think our journalists should be fined for making mountains out of mole hills and basically being d*cks on a continual basis. Wales Ireland is going to be a cracking match. Anyone got a prediction? Come on Cozza call your semi final berths! I agree Haydn. Scotland were unlucky not to go through however I think they have paid for a lack of any consistent threat through scoring tries.
