ok lads simmer down....

interesting to see that Wigglesworth has been called up i personally thought that Dan Robson was going to be chosen but as Eddie Jones said, we make the call not you.
will be good to see if Care starts or wether he is on the bench

No simmering down required! I merely asked Jem to clarify what he meant and he's done that. I was obviously misreading the meaning of his post and I wanted to know what he meant.... simple! :thumb:

AshBailey you're really looking for trouble.... :ninja:

i reckon it'll be close but i don't think that Wales are on form enough to be able to come out on top. i know Scotland were a walkover but England might be a harder nut to crack.

looking forward to it tho :thumbs:

ONCE IN A LIFETIME OFFER

England v Ireland March 17 St Patrick’s Day Twickenham

A friend of mine has two tickets in a corporate box for England v Ireland 17th Mar. He paid £300 each, but he didn't realise when he bought them months ago that it was going to be the same day as his wedding.

If you are interested, he is looking for someone to take his place.

It's at Marylebone Registry Office, at 4.30pm. The bride's name is Nicole -- she's 5'4", about 8 stone, quite pretty, has her own income and is a really good cook.

Let me know!

I'm a little late in reading this thread so I might have missed out.

Can you please PM a photo of the young lass? My wife said that I could look but not touch :'(

It might be just me being my usual grump but as a full time viewer of rugby football I reckon that soccer "diving" has crept into one or two teams. Also, too many players are shouting at the ref not letting the captain make the point.

Jem60. Have you considered making the tea for your wife in the kitchen? I tried your method and found that the pillows became soggy.

We should get some cracking games this weekend and Southern Hemisphere rugby is due to start. It was only a chill factor of freezing yesterday, the days are getting lighter and the air show days are soooon.

Have fun :roll:

Why TWO anthems for the Irish team?

You could try Google like I did!
At matches played in the Republic, both "Amhrán na bhFiann" (as the anthem of the Republic of Ireland) and "Ireland's Call" (as the anthem of the home team) are sung. Elsewhere, "Ireland's Call" is the only anthem used, in recognition of the need for a unifying anthem.
