A lot of comments about the price of tickets - but you can pick them up from ยฃ30 for an adult ticket which is pretty similar to the cost in 2016. The trouble is, the ticket prices have been so consistently high recently that people assume it costs ยฃ100+ and don't bother.
@EnglandRugby
Decent looking side, will need to be on form against a strong Argentinian 23. The last 4 weeks don't matter now - come on boys!! ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ
@TightFive_Rugby
Firstly, this is something that has been reported by a NZ website, so it's not exactly gospel at this point. Secondly, regardless of when it happened, the ball was knocked on so it shouldn't be a try (a fundamental of the game & the rule on this is bobbins).
@abadabus
Already have, just having a bit of fun in the twitter verse... (should probably be X verse now I guess?). Gutted about the result, of course- but well aware that these things happen. Have no issue with SA at all. Enjoying the ride though!
@JoeMarler
Small margins Joe, heroic effort yesterday. Gave us a reason to be proud and you proved a lot of people wrong. We'll be cheering you on in Paris on Friday!
@RuckedOver
Does nothing to clarify the position for either player, either. RFU seem livid that Curry doesn't get to put evidence across which leaves a cloud over Mbonambi, Curry getting more grief and being called on for an apology. Another mess.

Wasn't it a public vote? You can argue who should/shouldn't have been on the shortlist (which is subjective btw), but the public chose the winner - so who is the rant aimed at, exactly?

some SA Rugby "fans" showing their class on Twitter/X again by trolling this post - shame they don't have the class that their Skipper does.

Will Borthwick kowtow to the pressures of the press? No.
Or will he remain resolute behind Smith? maybe - but if he does, that'll have nothing to do with "the pressures of the press".
You don't need to know much about SB to know that this question is irrelevant.
Dear Great British Bake Off producers,
Next year, how about giving the contestants adequate time for what youre asking them to bake, so we get proper showstoppers... another year where the best bakers end up half arseing the presentation as they've run out of time.

*NZ press reporting.... being the key phrase for now.
Yesterday's news and a ridiculous rule anyway. If it's forward, then it should be ruled out - a fundamental of the game. Time to move on.
Ok then,

There is that, of course - but he also slotted a DG from half way. Small margins and the SA bench was the difference. Fair play to them.
With Ashy retired, Jimmy G moving on, we need some new members of Dad's Army to keep Mike Brown company - plus Chessum, Martin, Henderson all possibly on WC duty for the start of the season, Callum Green going....

@BathBytes
Can only imagine that's due to the constraints of only being able to make 5 changes. Would have liked to see Ollie Lawrence and Ted Hill in there.
Always a few people ready to have a pop, but 127 caps and being picked by 4 different England managers says it all. Class act - on and off the field. Hope you smash it on Friday Lenny!
We donโt mind doing it the tough way! Together.
Thank You to all those who were in the stands tonight in London or cheering on from back in Leicester.

Leicester Tigers back rower Hanro Liebenberg has revealed to us he asked head coach Richard Wigglesworth to be taken off captaincy duties at the start of the year.
In an exclusive conversation, he said it was a "tough" call, but fully backs new captain Julian Montoya.

@RuckedOver
Exactly the point I made to someone - a few iffy games but who wouldn't in 126 appearances? Had loads of outstanding ones too. Magnificent player.
@ugomonye
I mean, I don't have one, but the Ninja Foodi dual zone is the correct answer. Go for any with the 2 compartments to be honest, but the MAX version of the Ninja is in the prime day sale...
@RuckedOver
I've seen the clip of Watson's try a dozen times at least (and I'm not complaining about that, btw) - would love to see a clip of that hit again though...
Wiggy gets Brown, Steward and Watson on the pitch at the same time... decent bit of impact off the bench in the pack too. Will need to be on top form for that Leinster side though.. ๐ฏ๐ฏ๐ฏ

Is there an equivalent to "tackle school" for refs for these decisions? If a player gets it wrong, he is more or less required (ok, strongly encouraged) to show that he's working on getting it right next time. Shouldn't it be the same for refs?
@1_Dickie
Ridiculous red card, and that's from a Tigers fan. I get Baxter's viewpoint here, feels a bit like this result should have an asterisk next to it now.
@FromLe2
Very thoughtful of the club to make all these announcements on a week where there's no game just so you and Mike have enough material for the pod next week.. ๐คฃ
@premrugby
ยฃ100 a ticket to sit anywhere near the half way line on lower & middle, ยฃ55 to sit behind the sticks... before the season has even started. No thanks.

Utterly gutted for you and everyone involved with the club. It's heartbreaking. The PRL is worse off today. Hopefully something will rise from the ashes. Well done Dimes for everything you did for WW.
@FromLe2
I wonder how many occasions where matches like Eng V Fiji pre RWC and the Prem Final (when there were loads of empty seats) it will take to re-think that statement.

@gloucesterrugby
Not a great day/time for most, I suspect. This will rule out a lot of fans who have a bit of a journey to/from MWWR. Travelling Gloucester fans face the prospect of a drive home some time after 5pm on Christmas Eve.
@SquidgeRugby
@MajorTomSavage
A churlish statement born out of the frustration of a last minute defeat snatched from the jaws of victory. Not representative of the vast majority of Tigers fans, I'd suggest! It's actually pretty funny - the nerve of Ospreys trying to win! ๐คฃ๐คฃ
The couple sat next to us in the pub ordered a sharing plate of camembert and ciabatta which my wife and I stared at longingly while they ate. They left 2 breadsticks and a 3rd of the cheese, then asked if we wanted it. It still remains untouched, crippled by our own britishness.
@rollingmaulpod
Watched a load of these today but this one really drives the point home. If Warriors pull through this, it would be nice to think that opposition team's fans would make an effort to support the away games at Sixways and make those a sellout. I've got the end of Jan pencilled in.
@RugbyCollective
P*ss poor form from the Gloucester fans in the shed for Farrell's place kicks, though - felt a bit karma-ish for me and I have no love for Sarries at all!
@BathBytes
@BathSupporters
Only Crossan knows the full situation and he's obviously sunk a lot of money into the club in the last decade. At least he hasn't had a swipe at the players and fans, unlike the shower of sh*t at WW...
@FromLe2
Fully agree. He's been at a consistently high standard, quietly getting on with his job - awesome in defense, dangerous going forward. Well in the 8 out of 10 club.

Taking this one in on the commute over a couple of days or so, did the first half hour this morning. Love Elliott's line when listing why he's happy about Dan Cole's selection - "a. It annoys all the right people.." ๐คฃ

@Saracens
exactly that. 20 wins out of 24 this season should give SB enough credit that he has picked the best side available to take on Sarries at Twickenham. "best side available", "sarries" and "twickenham" all being key variables.
