6 Nations: England V France

Recommended Posts

England suck. Full stop.
It is and will always be about the AllBlacks.
We just let you play our game so you guys can embarras yourself.


I think England is the only team that has won the world cup and NOT been in the top three of the rankings let alone the top ranked team.

England is useless. They have had one good year when their palyers had been with the squad for years and every other nation had a young squad.

I can't imagine a brit will ever admit that though.


The only reason i bet on it was because of one single player that can kick a ball who returned to the team..


I wonder who will injure him for the world cup?:P

How many games has england won in th4e last 4 years? Something like 3 out of 20?

I can not seem to find anything on the net in relation to that

There are three teams on 6 pts:

Team     Diff   Last Opponent

France +42 Scotland
Ireland +38 Italy
England +13 Wales


Now, you'd expect all three top teams to win their last games, but England need to win by 29pts more than the French and 25pts more than the Irish.

Achievable? Yes.

Easy? Ummm...

Dude, what the hell have you been smoking?

England were the number one team in the world the year we won the world cup. It was the greatest year ever for English rugby - we won the 6 nations Grand Slam, were undefeated on our summer tour down under beating the NZ Mauri, the All Blacks and the Wallabies twice and we won the world cup without dropping a single game as well. The only game we lost that entire year was when we fielded a B side in a world cup warm up game against France. Until then we'd been on a record breaking string of consecutive victories.
Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Sorry i was wrong there, was looking at the rankings of the wrong year. You are correct, you were number 1 by 3.9 points.

I am going on the IRB rankings there.
