I don't know very much about rugby but I know enough to realise that the English rugby team are the ultimate one man team.Quote:

You're quite right - you don't know very much about rugby and you only watched one eighth of the game so why comment?Quote:

It was certainly a game that only those that revel in the more defensive or forward driven aspects can enjoy, definitely not one for the neutrals.Quote:

Had England not had Wilkinson then they had a more than able deputy, and actually a better tactical kicker and more accurate goal kicker in Toby Flood.

80 minutes watching 30-odd steroid-pumped neanderthals sticking their heads up one another's backsides, and every time somebody actually had the ball he just booted it up the park for someone else to boot it straight back at him....
And people travelled to Paris and paid loadsa money to watch it?
And the commentary team was appalling.
Wilkinson will probably be knighted if they win the final:brickwall
Because I've seen England play quite a few times and Wilkinson seems to be about the only person who actually puts a serious amount of points on the board unless they're playing diddy teams like Japan and Portugal etc.Quote:

He's the stand off, that's his job had he not been there to kick the penalties then Toby Flood would have, it's a bit like saying that Scotland are a one man team because Paterson is the only person who seems to put serious points on the board. What you are either forgetting or don't understand is the amount of work that the forwards and fringe defence carry out to force the opposition to concede penalties within a kicking range.Quote:
