British referee for a British team?
But yeah, I said Ireland could beat NZ, I said Wales could, and I said England could.
Nothing has changed my mind.
We need to write a astrix beside Joe Schmidt's name *Never got a performance out of Ireland unless the schedule was lucky to Ireland. |

New Zealand had the perfect game against us....they fell apart today
England had the perfect game today...they won't play as well in the final.
I can see wakes winning tomorrow....and probably the final |

Well yeah you can have the perfect game when there is no pressure put on you. England just showed that with pressure NZ cant play a perfect game.
England were far from perfect today, they did the same game they have been playing all year, they just didnt fall apart like Ireland, they are mentally stronger than Ireland.
Ireland can cross their fingers that the six nations will give them their hardest game on St Patricks day at home in Dublin, and they might win the next six nations.
Saying that, I am not fond of England player Owen Farrell going down holding his head every game to get a free, like a soccer game but never getting head trauma assessment.

"Nigel Owens is Welsh"
Exactly so he is British. His passport says British just like an English persons.
Rugby allowing Wales to enter a team does not mean welsh people are a different nationality to English people. They are the same. Its why Oympics needs a team GB. |

"I lived in wales, they are very happy being British first and foremost, any sporting rivalry is just sporting.
Thats all I will be saying on it."
I lived in Wales too and the people I know saw themselves as Welsh first and foremost and hardly thought of themselves as British most only spoke English when they had to. So maybe the Welsh you knew were not nationalistic Welsh people ?? |

As an Englishman I'm happy great performance. I don't think you can critisise Nigel Owens for being biased as a previous contributor implied and he did disallow 2 tries
As for Wales, they wouldn't do the English any favours in the rugby |

Nothing against England but we've matched them over the years and here they are in a third final I think and we've never even got to the semi final. Same goes for Wales and France. Something is very wrong somewhere. |

I’ve been watching English rugby for almost 50 years. No they weren’t perfect today . But ffs; NZ were never in the game and their only points on the board was due to a rather silly English mistake; not due to any NZ brilliance. It was by far and away the best English performance I’ve seen |
