I have to say I wasn't expecting yesterday's rugby result. I'm a dedicated England fan, but I had very low expectations going in to this tournament.
Now if we can just clone Ford and Steward, we might just get back to the top!

Signs of progress for #EnglandRugby in their final World Cup warmup match. At least they got through a match without anyone getting red-carded πππ #ENGvFIJ
This England performance does not bode well for the world cup at all. Not that I had any great hopes after the dismal performances in the autumn anyway.
Thank goodness I don't make photo bets on these games anymore π³
Really don't agree with fans booing #englandrugby off the pitch. They undoubtedly did their best and they will get better. Have these people forgotten 2003 (six Nations, Triple Crown and World Cup?).
Watching any team steamroller the opposition repeatedly gets boring. Even the All Blacks can't do it all the time (well, OK, most of the time).
Play really really well and you might get five minutes. Ten if we're losing by loads.

Good wins for Ireland and Scotland today. Will England turn up and win tomorrow? I think OFs days as captain are limited.

If #EnglandRugby commence this new era campaign conceding unnecessary penalties, then itβs time the whole squad take a trip to Infantry Battle School Brecon to learn about on & off the field discipline. Seriously. #IBSB #SixNations #EngWales

Following the departure of Eddie Jones, a few rugby peeps are claiming England has the talent in their squad to win the World Cup. A wee heads-up, they don't. Not by a long way.
Breaking:
As expected, Eddie Jones has been sacked as England head coach.
The Aussie leaves with 3 Six Nations, a World Cup finalist and the best winning record, even with a woeful final two years.
Former Leicester and Edinburgh head coach Richard Cockerill to take charge in the interim
Thoroughly disappointing England V Saffa match.
Eddie Jones needs to go - the team only gel when there's enough pressure for them to go rogue.

That England game was really good. Fair play to #EnglandRugby for having such a great game. Next, the main feature #IrelandRugby vs #AustraliaRugby. This should be one hell of a game.

Not sure I'm a fan of the #EnglandRugby team's new tactic of not actually bothering to play until the last nine minutes
Wow!! Way to go #EnglandRugby! Excellent comeback against the #AllBlack to tie the match π π #rugby #ENGvNZL
