Now that the dust has settled
First topic message reminder :
Right I think I speak for most of us here.
It was a brave effort from all teams at the weekend against the BIG three SH teams but once again it has ended in three defeats. OK these guys did have home advantage and yes they are ranked higher than all of us in the IRB rankings (not that they are relevant! For the time being anyway ) but I'm beginning to get fed up with the NH teams failing to beat these guys.
Wales should have won, Ireland were so close to pulling it off and England still make stupid mistakes that cost them time and time again so it's hard to say if we are improving or not.
So I ask the 606vs public to voice their opinions on what we need to do to beat these guys.
IMO I don't think we believe in ourselves enough, the SH guys always seem to have a slight swagger about them.

Oh it is..it is, my precious. Moral of the mirage is that if you're down to your last tongueful of salty sweat and see pain in the distance with his phrase book and his smile.............. well, crawl the other way. It's a trick.
I must remember that, crawl away from the

Wales up by 1, 20 to go Aus down due to a yellow card, on the verge of a famous victory and what does any SH team do in that situation? Go for the jugular! What did Wales do? Try to close the game out, bring on one of their best broken play runners and he's told to boxkick the ball away!!
didn't watch the match, but that makes for painful reading. Adam Jones wasn't too impressed either
