yeah, must confess I was surprised no penalty was awarded.
re Burrell, been really impressed with him. He's running some great angles and he has a really good passing game. Manu is a great player, but he's much more one dimensional in comparison to Burrell.

just because you do, doesn't mean you should.

And that's what a good centre does
There's a difference between doing it in the 73rd and the 3rd minute of any test match too.......
I think Manu will start at 14- he's played more first class games on the wing that at centre in point of fact. he may not quite have the gas but he brings a lot of other things to the table.

Trimble has been quite good all round I feel, safer bet than Zebo and co. I a a way he reminds me of Liam Williams, not the biggest guy but solid and hard to stop as they seem so awkward. Overall poor 6nations from Wales, top 2 deserved, we are lucky to get 3rd.

England boring to watch ? Scored enough tries, and Brown was electric along with Danny Care, top quality. Most boring team for me apart from last game was (and I hate to admit it) Wales.
It'll be interesting to see what Cotter will do with Scotland. There are some quality players there so they really could become a threat. At the same time, how long have we been saying that about Scotland? Hogg to 10? He needs to be on the ball more. He's a world class player. Gregor Townsend would have to be willing to play him there for Glasgow too.
Wales? I duuno. They could beat everybody next year. The mammoth contract given the Warren isn't looking too clever at the moment. Look at Eddie O'Sullivan and Ireland in 2007? One thing they did though was give me someone to hate. Liam Williams is a little bollox with his cheap shots.
Italy? They're better then the spoon suggests. They have backs now, and they are not so reliant on Sergio. The decision of the Treviso and Zebre to pull out of the Rabo is looking less smart now. Where are those players going to get quality opposition week on week?
Despite losing on Saturday France will be happy enough I suspect. They've a crapload of players to come back from injury (Fofana, Para, HairyDonkey, Clerc) and they've uncovered some young talent. PSA is the weakpoint, but he's probobly kept his spot past the world cup with Saturdays gameplan.
Loads of the UK press keep referring to the Irish squad as "aging". Such lazy journalism. We have some older players (BOD, Ross, Best, O'Connell) but the back bone of the squad like Heaslip, Kearney, Sexton, Murray, SOB, POM, Toner are all either young or in their mid to late late 20s. Just becuase the the England squad can't drink yet doesn't mean everybody else is old. And look at the Bench that was used? Cronin, Tommy O'Donnell, Jordi Murphy, Marty Moore, Iain Henderson, they're all young. And we've Bowe, Fitzgerald, Ferris and more coming back from injury.
England and Ireland are looking strong. A few tweaks to the gameplan, and more trust in Biggar or Hook and Wales will be there too. And France always have the ability to be France, as they showed on Saturday and on the first day.
I enjoyed the championship anyway!
