Didn't know we had a flanker called M. Owen!! Why is he retained? Is there any objective decision making at the WRU?

The reason Owen been put at 6 (and hasn't been dropped) is because we're playing the pod system. Popham and Delve have never played the pod system at international level. Welcome to a very boring game from us on Saturday.

Scott Johnson doesn't give a damn does he!?

Congratulations Alix! What's the idea of Shane Williams on the wing and Henson still in the squad??? And where's Barry Davies!? How much does he have to prove himself????

Disgraceful!

good riddance to johnson who has proved he hasn't got the bottle to drop out of form players. furthermore i thought the pod system ended when henry left, the only pod system i can see now is unfit players caught out of position slowing play down.

I know and I [beep]ing agree with you! SJ's experimenting badly with the forwards; he doesn't have a clue what goes on with them. Remember the Lions tour? Pod system was played too. Scott's thinking of chucking our forwards against the French? Must be having a laugh, either that or having an attitude of 'Well I'm [beep]ing off back to Oz in a couple of weeks, who cares?'.
'Sexy rugby' Scott? Well if you think that being buggered is...

About time we had a hard player with plenty of 'dog'. Owen's soft hands are just that.

Owen probably not dropped as they rarely drop the captain.

Daf Jones to come on when ScottJ finally realises Owen is the worst blinside flanker to play rugby. Has he ever played blinside? What a joke.

I think we'll see Daf James marking Rougerie, well i hope we do, or as someone said, he'll bulldoze shane.

Oh, and Luscombe will never be able to cope with Fritz, i hope he proves me wrong, but i've been saying that for the last 5 matches!

That'll be on the 79th minute when were are 30 points down then

The localised condition of planetary atmospheric condensation caused a malfunction in the visual orientation circuits...

Or to put it another way, we got lost in the fog.
