He should be relegated to some non-league matches for a while! :)

Scotland always find greater motivation when playing England... they need to find that same level for all games.

I tend to find this is the case for all home nations sporting teams, up the game like a world cup final to play England, then they go limp playing other teams it makes no sense but can be applied to Football etc.
 
Anyone trying for RWC 2023 tickets today?
I got 2 x Nantes city pack and 2 x Lyon city pack on Monday.

Hoping to get 2 x Nice city packs now. 15% progress in the queue to get on the site :/

I was at work on Monday but been queueing since about 16:50 today. Got through one queue, selected the England pack and now sat at 19% in what appears to be a second queue.

Yes I am exactly the same in terms of times. I selected Nice city pack and got put into another queue, currently sat at 56%
 
This totally passed me by :(

Fond memories of France. I drove to Paris for the semi-final with a mate and walked around asking anyone in a rugby shirt until we found some kiwis willing to sell their tickets.

Knocking the French out of their own world cup, high up in the stands at the Stade De France....glorious.

But back to now, I'm trying to find out what the deal is with the local side. Moved back to the UK just before Covid nonsense and moved to a new area, don't know anyone here. I'm more into climbing these days but there's a great combined footie/cricket/tennis/rugby sports club here so I'm gonna drag my 40-year arse to get knocked about on the rugby pitch and get to know some locals....sure there won't be any shortage of boozy socials!
 
Took me 55 minutes in the queue and when it asked for my logon, I started to type and it kicked me out...to start queuing again
From what hellarda says I didn’t lose out, but I was as mad as hell yesterday
I left the pc on and finally finished queuing for the second time at around 21:25, but by that time it was more out of interest about how long it would take more than anything else
 
Yeah England packs had sold out by the time I got through the queue at about 9:10. I then dithered for about 5 minutes about whether to go for a Nice/Marseille pack instead and by the time I decided to go for it they'd also sold out. Dufus.
 
It appears the Nice city pack sell out first as I have got in twice and each time they are all gone, while the other packs seem to have some availability.

The second time round it appeared that most tickets were snapped up quite quickly as I had a look to see if I could get another Lyon pack to find that the Wales vs Australia tickets were all gone.

I am not really optimistic for the general sale on the 6th as demand will be greater due to opening up for all which will increase the volume of traffic.
But I will still give it a try as I really want The Nice city pack!
 
Not surehow I feel about Daly at 13 for today. When he broke on the scee with Wasps he played there a lot and that was where I actually wanted to see him play. But his defence in the last few years hasn't looked good enough and outside centre can be mighty exposed to think he might be defending Bundi Akee worries me.

As long as we never see Daly at fullback again i think we'll be alright... but he just can't tackle at all.
 
How did Mako Vunipola get picked again today for England? He keeps giving away penalties at the scrum. Not surprised he was taken off at half time.

Ireland are playing very well at the moment, hope they can keep it up for this half, they have faded in the second half in each game so far. And England are well capable of scoring 4 or 5 tries in a half.
