@IrishTimesSport I don’t know who Matt Williams is and I haven’t read the article but he is talking nonsense. What I do know is that Sale are sending their strongest team possible to face Ireland, given current injuries with at least 5 England internationals out injured.

@PlanetRugby Sale are actually sending their strongest team possible with current injuries 🤷🏻‍♂️

One of our followers reminded me we haven’t don’t three word reviews for ages. I am therefore cautiously asking for them 😂. Please keep it civil. TM

@JYHYCN Don’t think so🤔 Running in tries far from the posts would give more points for conversions Better game mgmt at the end, not kicking the ball back with 2 minutes to go🤔 When we did recover the ball Pollock throwing it away aimlessly players need to focus on what they can control

Rugby as a whole would benefit massively if people came out after this game and were honest about how utterly farcical that refereeing performance was and how much of an influence he had on the result. He was the reason France won and there is no doubt about it. #FRAVENG

@SBarnesRugby Sad thing is, Italy didn’t need to be at their best. England were poor, the kick chase lottery is not suitable for the talented squad that England have. They need to play rugby 🤷🏻‍♂️

What few English fans don't want to hear. Italy were nowhere near their best....it wasn't some glory glory Italy performance. Nice to get that first win but hey, it wasn't the Springboks

@RoyP123 this is my opinion, but i think they should for the same reasons russia is currently banned, or have the Israeli athletes compete under a neutral flag like we saw in paris 2024 with Russian and Belarusian athletes

@AlexEthers We did this at Leinster a few seasons ago, went man for man most of the game & we’re not disgraced. Let the lads play.

@garfster2609 Really? We’ve signed Marchant, a first class prop. You don’t know what else. Trust the board, Raffi has been AWOL for most of this contract. He won’t get through the next two games without getting injured. Good luck to him on 4G, it kills my hips 😩

@ajsrugby His fitness is questionable, Sale had the best of him originally but he’s had injury after injury & can rarely play 2 consecutive matches any more.

@RoyP123 Unimaginative attack and increased missed tackles is not due to injuries, lineouts too. Scrums are an issue when Asher and Rodd come off later in games, that's why they tend to go 60mins+

@RoyP123 Unimaginative attack, can't go more than 3 phases before kicking, which without Roebuck has been poorly chased (poorly box kicked too). Our miss tackles have sky rocketed this season. Scrum penalties double without Asher and Rodd. Lineout has been overall poor (easy to read)

@RoyP123 Only 5 of them start for Scotland, 3 more potentially get into a 23. We were 14 nil up and then conceded 26 unanswered points. Similar to vs Exeter. I know we have injuries but there's deeper lying issues

@knypevale I don’t suppose you want to hear this but ‘it’s a marathon not a sprint’ The club should be judged on its season long performance on & off the pitch. It’s difficult right now but there are opportunities ahead.

@Entragian6 @stephenjones9 This was not a mistake! He went for the eye, connected with the eye & then went back for more. The intent is clear, as is the expression on his face.

Eben Etzebeth is a fantastic player. Maybe one of best five locks in history. Being harsh and aggressive is never an offence. But eye-gouging is arguably the worst offence in the game. Any suspension shorter than six months would be a joke

@AndyGoode10 Ford was the driver behind the momentum of the England team today. He has become a classy international player. To suggest that he is a defensive liability is a bit harsh!

@tomdabs I’d have had different centres (Ojomoh & Laurence 😉) but if you’re picking Dingwall and freeman why aren’t you picking Finn Smith?

@knypevale @SaleSharksRugby That’s a rather ill informed comment. I am a season ticket holder of 30 years. You’re entitled to your opinion, I just don’t agree with it.

@RoyP123 @SaleSharksRugby You have low expectations Roy - top coach would get a lot more out of these players. Only those who go week in week out know . All these comments come from the armchair. God you can’t criticise in r u . This game is doomed
