Incredible by south Africa. To lose 57-0 a year ago then beat England and win in New Zealand a year later is superb

Yep. When kiwi commentators notice it must be bad.

Argentina just won in Australia as well
Try of the season from Bath at the Stoop just now. Unbelievable finish from Cokanasiga!
What has happened to Australian rugby? Their national team is shite now

It’s only the fourth sport in oz.
RL, Aussie rules and cricket all way more popular.
The Aussie RFU is a basket case.

Joe Marler retires from England duty with immediate effect, aged 28.
Citing wanting to spend more time with his family as the reason.
Fair enough really. If he’s away from his family and his heart isn’t fully in it he’s wasting time that’s should be spent with them, and England aren’t getting the best of him so someone else should take his place.
Life’s too short not to spend time on your own priorities.

I always thought he was a complete Cheb end till I listened to the rugby pod podcast with Andy Goode and big Jim hamilton.
He’s quite a funny bloke tbf.
Prop wise (and I generally ignore the fat, talentless, meathead, smasher roles) he’s not the best and there’s several players who are much better than him who should be in the England setup
Yeah but most of them play for Exeter and none of them play for Harlequins, so they're not going to get picked for England

One them should get a ludicrous hair cut so that Eddie Jones mistakes them for Joe Ma... wait... oh.

Both Andy Goode and Ugo Monye have said the same thing this week in their podcasts.
It’s a joke that kvesic (sp) isn’t in

I liked his pop at Hask where he got Judo thrown. Very entertaining and deserved it.

Not like. He’s the Archbishop.
Let's be fair though, for Jones to get to Exeter, he'd have to drive past Bath to get there. So it's little wonder he picks so few of their players and insists on injuring ours instead

I just don’t get why he would pick players from a side who are going to be fighting relegation this seasonLet's be fair though, for Jones to get to Exeter, he'd have to drive past Bath to get there. So it's little wonder he picks so few of their players and insists on injuring ours instead
Awaits the bite.....

I said it after the six nations Jones needs to go.
Hopefully the RFU can be more progressive after the WC and get Baxter in and let him transform English rugby.
I doubt it like
Would Baxter even want the job though? What he's achieved and is continuing to achieve at Exeter, why would he want to chuck that all in for the ridiculous media scrutiny he would come under with England where the only way he could be considered a success would be to win the World Cup?
