Chill out dude, it’s a World Cup final. Emotions run high.

I know, but it just pollutes ands bloats every match thread as soon as the paranoid self-pity pile-on begins.

[RayCee]

Wow, the skill in that try and England lead. Can they go on with it?

So, we have seen Wheelchair Rugby League trending on Twitter over the last few weeks. 

Now, Jack Brown, a Wheelchair Rugby League player is trending 6th on Twitter tonight. 

How good is that.

Talking of Twitter, could we convince Musk to buy Rugby Union

What a game, just been babysitting my 7 year old Grandson and he's never seen it before but was sat in the conservatory watching with me and was absolutely fascinated and cheering England on and was leaping about when they scored, he was gutted he had to go home!.

 

Go England !!!

Will I ever see a British journalist speaking French for an interview? 

 

No. Why would you?

Given his dirty apartheid money background, Musk probably is a RU fan. I can see the memo: "I want everyone to commit to a 12-hour match six days a week and if you don't agree in five minutes, you're fired."

Not only is this a good game, it *feels* like a big deal.

Thank god for it I say.

a test case !

I've discovered that the same cliches work for wheelchair RL as they do for the running game.

So many of them in the first half!

I alos discovered that the ex-wheelchair players know the rules and the ex-running players dont.

[JohnM]

The cheating French are using extra-sticky Velcro straps.

I must admit, i have wondered why sometimes it takes such effort to get them ripped off!

I actually had that thought too, our lads seem to have to really rag the French tags off.

Sharon said that earlier, are they using some sort of glue plus velcro

[Futtocks]

Nicolas Clausells has had a bit of a rough time this evening.

Brown is ridiculous...his tackle got the ball back then wriggles through for a try.
