Gallows Pole being constructed for Sam Burgess.

Wonder who'll get pilloried this week?

Getting beaten easily England and it's mainly down to the English forwards.

Will be the coach always the coach.

Problem is England lost it in the last 10 minutes when Burgess went off against Wales. England were better than Wales.

Its funny boy this is going to be fun in the papers tomorrow.

At least 90% of the population can go back to their lives and stop pretending they're rugby union fans!

On the plus side, it might be less busy in Manchester on Saturday.

I just hope they do enough for Burgess to decide he's better off back in Rugby league, which is where he belongs and free from all the twisted bu!!54it that is union.

At the time the game ended, I turn over to see the score and was amazed to hear one of the pundits making the excuse that the Coach was in the process of building a team and Inverdale mystified on why Australia could win the scrum better than England.

Well, from what bit I have seen of them, they have got a long way to go as you cannot win games solely on penalty kicks which seems to be the case with England teams when they played the better nations.

Hopefully a telling example for League players that switching to Union has some huge negatives.

Personally, I am deeply offended that Union players past not fit to lick Sam Bs boots en-mass cast negative judgement on his ability.

Hit the nail on the head CP. I liken it to Donkeys From the Donkey Derby criticising Arabian thouroughbreds

Utter garbage.

Sounds to me that he is a bit peeved that Sam is more well known than himself.

The only Darcy I have ever heard of is a character in a well known book.

I think I've gleaned from post s that you support Latics so you surely haven't forgotten Arnold Darcey A winger I believe
