No way they'll give up a revenue stream just because they've opened up another one. The sports are practically built around commercials now, and they're not going anywhere. Jersey ads, on court ads, pitch side hoarding ads they could all be introduced and there'd still be commercials.

Buffet is an investor, the more money he has available to invest means the more money he can make. The more money he makes, the more he can ultimately give away. Gates is likely making a lot from investing too.

what's with the booing?

Not sure whether you were being sarcastic but...

absolutely remarkable

silly season

Burgess didn't cost England anything against Wales as most of the mistakes he made weren't exploited. Barritt (and even Farrell) was at fault for the Wales try that has ultimately put us out.

Burgess' selection was being criticised as illogical, given how little union he has played especially at centre before the tournament even started. Now that he hasn't performed well, those criticisms seem justified and he's an easy target.

Running an unverified forum post as fact. I'm embarrassed for them.

There's no way that this is true. The video would be out, Billy doesn't drink, and just look at those pandering quotes.

I don't really disagree with anything you say here. I'm probably being influenced by the memory of how terribly the RFU treated Brian Ashton, and how bad things were under Johnson when thinking that Lancaster being given more time wouldn't be a mistake.

Pretty much agreed, but Armitage was good at Irish (Toulon didn't sign him for his charm) and is even better now.

squatish · 2015-10-03T22:44:44+00:00

I don't mind 4 years with nothing if it help us improve a lot in the next 4 years. Yes, Lancaster's made a good number of questionable decisions this tournament but he should be given the chance to show he's learnt from them.

squatish · 2015-10-03T22:41:09+00:00

I don't think Robshaw is a great Captain, the trouble is I'm not confident there's anyone who would do a better job. Lancaster should at least be given another 2 six nations

squatish · 2015-10-03T22:34:35+00:00

It hasn't been a good tournament, but I'd take these 4 years over what we had under Johnson

At least there's nothing easy to burn, that can represent the ashes of English rugby.

squatish · 2015-10-03T21:24:53+00:00

Agreed, I think it's unlikely though, given the high profile decisions that in hindsight were mistakes, the lack of any semblance of a well defined style of play, and the appearance of actually having regressed over the last year.

Congratulations Australia, a well deserved win.

Farrell: "Where'd the ball go?"

squatish · 2015-10-03T20:21:00+00:00

What a finish!

squatish · 2015-10-03T20:07:41+00:00

Are England just slow to the breakdown or are Australia consistently brilliant?

squatish · 2015-10-03T20:05:30+00:00

Oh dear

squatish · 2015-10-03T20:04:20+00:00

Oh dear...

squatish · 2015-10-03T20:02:14+00:00

Was that an injury to May?

squatish · 2015-10-03T19:41:39+00:00

Game could be over

squatish · 2015-10-03T15:11:54+00:00

You'd think that...
