Oh, Scotland.

Not sure who 'we' is, but if you mean the oak-hearted chaps of an English nature, they did ok against the notoriously unbeatable boks at the weekend, beaten only by two missed penalties and a freak-bobble try. Not trying to pretend it was a triumph, but hardly the basis of a 'not worth bothering' write-off. Nor let's not forget how 'in development' the current crop are.

And what, for that matter, is that nonsense about 'having France as a backup team'? France (*spit*) are the ENEMY! Let no true-born Englishman forget it.

1066 took care of your "true born Englisman". A vast majority of English people have French blood in them and the English language is 45% French. Your Royals are from German descent too. Need I say more!

Nope. I'm pretty sure I have no French in me. Possibly German but it's a very, very, very long way back if it is.

Just the kind of piffle one would expect from a fellow who has voluntarily chosen to adopt the nom de plume (pardon my French) 'gavroche', live in Wales, and use a signature from that unspeakable scoundrel Descartes. Pah!

Think you could put all the home nations on the same pitch against the All Blacks and they would still come second ! Must be the best NZ team ever. Mind that punch from behind was a cheap shot!

Blimey, you really got it in for the French! But I forgive you anyway as I am a peace loving person and understand that one can't please everybody.
