I was at Twickenham… It was a great atmosphere and we all had a good time but….jeez… it was a couple of ropey teams ( and I’m an England boy )

Six Nations: Late penalty decides England-Wales thriller, Aussie ref in strife after denying Scots winning try against France

You’re right on both counts

'Get a grip': Broad fumes, cricket world erupts as Poms cop hugely controversial wicket in U19 World Cup

Oh no, you literally are ALL going there. What has happened to this once great sporting nation of Oz?
Everybody hiding behind , “ oooh, it’s the rules , the umpires are just enforcing them”
The ball had stopped?!
Obstruction? fFS
Sorry state of affairs

'Get a grip': Broad fumes, cricket world erupts as Poms cop hugely controversial wicket in U19 World Cup

Do you genuinely believe this or are you just saying this on the internet.
I mean is your GENUINE opinion ….”yeah, what a stupid batsmen,he should’ve asked the fielding side “

(To pick up and pass the motionless ball to the fielder)

'Get a grip': Broad fumes, cricket world erupts as Poms cop hugely controversial wicket in U19 World Cup

Yeah, well done you. You’re probably chuckling to yourself for your clever comment on the internet. 👍

Is this really what you think ?

😂
Australia have beaten India, in India , after a record first innings deficit 30 times?

Wow, they really are the greatest 😂

Bazball won’t save Test cricket - but it’s time to give ‘whingeing Poms’ overdue credit for dramatic turnaround

Finally , the Roar editors do a brilliant headline….
( I will credit you with that Dan 😊 j

'Shafique's willingness to drop Warner means he can never be an Australian selector': The Liebke Report Card

I will tell you now.. I’m gutted about this result 😊

THE GREATEST! Boks beat All Blacks in instant classic to claim record FOURTH RWC in controversial, dramatic final

'An absolute disgrace': Broad lifts lid on fiery Cummins clash over Bairstow incident - and how the Aussie captain bit back

😂 Literally….what are you talking about?? This hasn’t been mentioned at all , the summer was long ago

No

Sacré bleu! Is Ligue 1 the most underrated league in world football?

This comes up time and again. I really need the definitive answer. SURELY, it’s not up to some random TV producer what pics the TMO gets?? The TMO gets everything?! …. What if the producer was REALLY one eyed and just gave one lame angle? What would World Rugby say??
I simply can’t get on board with this oft repeated conspiracy theory that some nefarious fan producer hides some pivotal replay angle to try and get the decision.
I simply don’t buy it

'Not good enough': England in disarray as Fiji pull off historic win to emerge as World Cup's darkest horse

Yes definitely, I saw the news Stokes was in but didn’t realise Brook was left out for him, big mistake.

'Me, me, me': Tim Paine slams Ben Stokes' World Cup un-retirement as star left out of warm-up series

I would def want Harry Brook in the squad but I’m well happy Stokes is in.
It may be some sort of selective memory bias, but in my mind he is the absolute epitome of ‘cometh the hour, cometh the man’
So many times (in my head) in recent memory he’s played the situation and not only got us out of a hole but basically won it for us.

Who would be the replacement opener for Warner in the squad ?

Head's heroic half-ton gives Aussies fighting chance as England quicks make hay in seam-bowling heaven

I too am a random on the internet 👍

SevenTEENth heaven: Warner Broad's bunny again as Smith, Marnus brain fades leave Ashes in Marsh's hands

😂 DRS was brought in to overrule the absolute howler. ..in people’s heads it’s now to check the absolute TRUTH and it’s a tactical appeal .if some randoms on the internet (you!) see it clipping the stump on ball tracking and are aghast then you’re all idiots. 😂

SevenTEENth heaven: Warner Broad's bunny again as Smith, Marnus brain fades leave Ashes in Marsh's hands

Why do you keep bringing this up….. apart from Gilchrist, in recent memory, no batsman walks, and on that day when he edged to the keeper neither did Broad. You might say it was a thickish edge so he should’ve walked but then who draws the line, you?
“Rich-Daddys Snicko Scale When it’s Acceptable to stand your ground”
“If it’s more than a 5,sorry mate you gotta walk but below that,crack on,stand yer ground it’s fine”

UK View: 'He didn't look like a leader. He looked pathetic' - Cummins caned but Poms also skewer 'dozy' Bairstow

I’ll be honest , as an England fan I’m feeling good. Obviously the entirety of the Roar are crowing about the win but it easily could’ve gone the other way and suddenly…..England should panic?? Have you not been listening to Stokes and McCullum all year? … they’ll be going all in ! 😂
As detailed above ,most of the team didn’t play great…… 1,2,3 didn’t fire, Jonny messed up a fair bit , Jimmy was off and our spinner had a knackered finger…and they still nearly won!
I’m excited for Lords…. They may get skittled by an innings but I’m loving it 🏏 😊

Ashes 2nd Test burning questions: Selection dramas, runs at what cost?

'I was a joke when appointed': Ange leads Celtic to treble but refuses to commit his future with Spurs in the wings

I’m English but spent a fair bit of time in Oz , so no eurosnob because all the code war /football standard nonsense that is regurgitated daily on the Roar is not a thing for me.
I support a Championship team in UK but obvs watch EPL and lots of other football.
Up until the last few years England have been enormous underachievers..talented individuals but bad team, but definitely there’s positive feelings around this lot.

(And the Danes were awful)

How can anyone be satisfied with the performance of the APL?

I’m not sure why you claim the English national team sucks but, whatever it’s a common narrative spouted by true blue Aussies but what’s this “everyone talking about little old Oz”?
I know everyone on the Roar thought it was the greatest moment in sporting history but a couple of scabby wins parking the bus was hardly front page news across the world 😊 😊
