*********************************************************************
With England now being "OUT" OF THE RUGBY WORLD CUP. They clearly have nothing too lose.

SO all the players in the 31 who have not played a game yet should be given their chance.

The likes of Danny Care starting at 9 and Wigglworth on the bench.

Easter and Kruse, Slade etc etc.

what do you think.

What have they got too lose?

Nothing.

Was the conversion Farrell just missed from about the same area he would have had that late penalty chance against Wales?

Nice to hear had we gone for the kick vs Wales and drew the game we would have just qualified for the QF. Grrrr

a diet won't make a difference, he hasn't been right since his neck problems.

Our forwards are no bigger than any other team.

Haskell still can't make any gorund even against part timers .

Why are you watching, you sound like you are in pain! lol

Just realised Uruguay still have a man in the sin bin. It wasn't apparent from the flow of the game. How depressing.

Umm yes they are but they don't use their weight well as they have poor technique in the scrums, clearing out and mauls.

Is Robshaw playing?

Haskell what a gym monkey!

Concrete hands on our flanks today.

I think I'd rather be having another bone marrow biopsy for my leukaemia than watching England screw this wc up

how about we learn to catch...

Haskell what a donkey!

But other than that they're great! Apart from in the loose...

Haskell's main problem is having the hand-eye coordination of a seven-year-old. For a guy with no skill whatever, he's nowhere near as physical as he should be.

Poor old Haskell, I think he's just done enough...to be dropped

haskell again....

Yet again Haskell can't catch then gives away a penalty!

Yeah - not entirely sure he could catch a cold.

From a great height!

Well done slade

Let's build this side around Slade. Please.

Hmmm Slade or Burgess on the bench vs AUS!!!!

Makes me wonder how Haskell takes a selfie!!??

Ironically enough...

slade, joseph, ford, brown

If Lancaster was impressed by Slade why wasn't he picked???!!!!

He goes through three sometimes four dozen phones in a month.

Well played Nowell

greenandpleasantland wrote:If Lancaster was impressed by Slade why wasn't he picked???!!!!

Because Andy Farrell didn't rate him!

Haha! Liked that!

Brilliant!
Hmmm Goode Care and Nowell and Slade...common thread us?

Cyril wrote:Let's build this side around Slade. Please.

This will be interesting albeit against a weaker side - Slade and Joseph in the midfield.

Slade and JJ, yes please

a new look combination in the centres. Where have i heard that before..

Easter again. This isn't half bad now.

What a party atmos this could have been!

Well done Robshaw.

This one might work!

Well played England - it was a potential banana skin. Nick Easter - one for the future. Where is Slamming Sam? BTW fab commentary by whatever bell end boobie from ITV FFS!

Breaking news Haskell the donkey has been destroyed!

So has SL.

We're in trouble now - Cole & Haskell off. What is SL thinking off?

Go Uruguay...they deserve a score here

What's the chances that Haskell went to hi-five Wood as he came off, and missed.

TightHEAD wrote:Breaking news Haskell the donkey has been destroyed!

On our commentary they said he did a fetlock, his catching one.

2 trys from Mike Brown minimum

goode off!

pleeeease!

He'll be spot on later when he bangs Madley.
