Get in well done England! 

[FoxyPV]

Fk

 

England deserved to win.

 

Ireland were good enough

Obviously not as good as Johnny Wilkinson but still brilliant. 

[PhillippaT]

Who doesn't love a drop-goal finish to win it?  

[MPH]

Great game!

[Tinman]

Swing low

[leicsmac]

That last attack earned the win by itself.

 

Excellently done.

[Super_horns]

Excellent win for England .

 

Dramatic 

[SpacedX]

Disrupted the ruck and defended well, but also, the best attacking rugby of the Borthwick era. Title contenders. Astonishing. 

[Dr Marco]

Immensely proud! Get In! 

"...playing rugby, the Borthwick way..."

We didnt turn up.

 

England deserved to win and played very well.

[BKLFox]

Great win and deserved I thought and Ford left 7 out there so we could have stopped them from gaining the bonus but hey best team in the world and we asked Qu’s which they haven’t been asked for a while. 

[BKLFox]

It’s funny reading the 1st couple of pages of this thread, people shooting their bolt so early without really checking the runners.
 

[RonnieTodger]

Forgot it was on due to Hull. What a win!

[westernpark]

Didn’t realise Danny Care played with the goat at Sheff Wed.

[PhillippaT]

Looks like it's the wooden spoon for Wales, then...

[foxes_rule1978]

Wales could end up losing all 5 Italy have improved and it wouldn’t surprise me if they get their second win against Wales

Shame, but it’ll take a few years of getting beaten for developing nations to improve. 
 

Hopefully Wales can take inspiration from Italy.

From an Irish perspective its a bit of a back handed compliment on how far Irish rugby has come that Boks and AB fans are gloating over an England's win against us. It wasnt that long ago we werent even in the top table conversation though I'm aware things can changes quickly and we might not be there for much longer.

 

Stringer and Healsip need binning to history for their cringey pre match arrogance.

[Super_horns]

Another Welsh stalwart retiring from International rugby .

 

George North .

 

Generally been an excellent player for Wales.

A great player at his peak, considering the amount of concussions he's had over the years its an acheivement that he's lasted this long.

[PhillippaT]

Go Italy...

[Nalis]

Wolves Coventry ending timed well with the start of this.

 

Italy starting where they left last week, that try look far too easy a walk in though.

[foxes_rule1978]

Italy really have improved a lot

Which is exactly what they were hoping for when they joined the 5->6 Nations...  It worked
