    RWC 2011 SF2: Australia vs. New Zealand

    I wouldn't say totally shut down, he managed to get two turnovers I think.

    RWC 2011 SF1 - Wales v France

    I can't see why the tackled player would want to risk injury by making the tackle look worse? And isn't the impetus to keep the tackle in control on the tackled player?

    RWC 2011 SF1 - Wales v France

    RWC 2011 SF1 - Wales v France

    If I can remember correctly, they did say they were gonna be harsh on spear tackles like that (where the Frenchie basically landed on his neck, and Warburton drove through with the tackle). Don't blame the ref for accurately penalizing something which had the potential to cause a lot of harm.

    Marto: "the referee has hurt this game" No, Warburton hurt himself and his team with a foul tackle, don't attack the ref for making a tough, but fair call.

    He did drive through with the tackle so I can see why that was a red.

    It's all over. Go have a bath, soap dodgers.

    RWC QF2: England v France (W Pool B v RU Pool A)

    Yeah, I'm gonna call it now. England don't have the firepower to score tries, and they don't have the back-line defence to hold France on the fringes.

    RWC 2011 QF1: Ireland v Wales (W Pool C v RU Pool D)

    Very impressive stuff from Wales. Roberts is immense!

    RWC 2011 - Quarter final 3 : Springbokke v. Wallabies CLOSED

    You obviously missed his pre-injury form. I can remember one game against the Wallabies (perhaps someone can point to the specific one) where he was probably MOM for mine with his powerful runs.
