Good God, I cant believe this is still being debated as we are just a few days from the crunch game for England.. and not just on this thread, the Aus v Eng thread has deteriorated into Eng v Wal, even the Wal v Fiji thread has comments on Eng v Wal, not to mention all the other threads about Robshaw, etc..

Well here's my last word on the matter...

England on they're day can beat anyone... it just wasn't their day last Saturday

Biting the Ferris hand that was fish-hooking him seems rather mild to me. He should have put Ferris on his arris.

It'd be the last time he'd try that stunt.  Ferris would have pile driven him into the turf and paid for the headstone out of his own pocket

But then Ferris would have been serving the ban and not Hartley. He used to be very good at winding up the opposition and getting them to have a pop, they got yellow carded, he just laughed.

Its been done to death anyway

And I agree, Hartley trying to take on Ferris would have been amusing, and I actually like Hartley as a player!

I don't condone violence. No matter the nationality.

This coming from the person who posted that Chris Ashton deserved to get glassed in the face.

I really wouldn't condone a player taking to the pitch with a glass. I mean where would he stash it?

This is the Ferris that ran to the Ref stuck his hand in the poor guy's face saying (in a quavering voice) 'Sir Sir he bit me....

Yeah, that's the very one, lost.

And now that you know you've got the right guy - that's the Ferris that would have buried school-yard Menace Hartley in the dirt had baby-faced prankster Hartley tried to put him on his arris.

Glad that's sorted

I don't think there are any winners in that game but being history and all we can have some fun with the incident.

Jesus. I was going to sweep up, turn out the lights and lock the doors but it seems that this thread is still going.

Please PLEASE PLEASE

Sweep up and turn the lights out on this tread... Anyone left in here.. Lock them in..

I thought I got lucky in the dark, I found a skirt and put my hand up it... HE was Scottish

I'm impressed you can identify nationality.
