George is a brillant choice.
People in here saying.Maradona negative comments are sad.
This is the truth :
Shilton still crying. It was Maradona's sheer will to win the ball which far exceded Shiltons will to win the ball.
If anything Shilton should be ashamed that he didnt have the desire or the will to get to the ball first.
He (Shilton) cheated England. Maradona simply exposed him. Removed

No Maradona slot yet.I'm in my 60's+Football was brutal in his era,tackles 2mame flying round got a booking at worst In his prime for 3 or 4 years he was unplayable,look at the Utube footage of his artistry. Messi+Renaldo flopped at World cups largely.His acceleration from a standingstart was incredible,he was by u in a flash+yes he was one footed,but thighs like tree trunks.Messi+renaldo dream on

England only have 3 real men in their squad: B Vunipola, Slade and Earl. This could prove to be their Achilles heal.

I've never understood why a tiny principality off the M4 presumes to have a 'national anthem' anyway. It's embarrassing. Perhaps when the entire 'Welsh' team is English (by the next RWC at this rate) you'll change to a medley of Chas and Dave's greatest hits before the match.
That looks a good team! Ford good shout at 10, still don't understand JJ on wing but hey ho. Good to see Watson back and hopefully fit, hope he gets some time on pitch he is class.
That is also a rather tasty bench, packed with forwards as per but think they will test Wales in last 20 minutes for sure.
Liam Williams out for Wales so less chance of a fight breaking out now. *
* Joke alert.

Good to see Lloyd Williams get his place after he came on against Ireland. He is the only player from the Welsh team who would get in the England squad, but having said that , so would Gareth Davies and Rhys Webb.
As an Englishman I hope Wales give a good account of themselves for the memory of Ray Prosser a Pontypool and Welsh great. RIP Ray.

Your forgetting brimmers, steve d, bigbaddog and several other beauts out there.
I wouldn't call Vvales a troll - he often makes quite constructive posts (amongst all the banter). The others, yeah, waste of time reading them.
Don't forget Sportsbra. I think several be in play-offs with vvales and ABE in final and ABE winning due to brown envelope passing hands...
“Winston Churchill, Maggie Thatcher, Jimmy Saville, Gary Glitter, Fred West, Julian Clary, Timmy Mallet, Nigel Farage...your boys going to take one hell of a beating!”

1 Nice comments from Eddie on Wales, credit where it's due
2 That's an awesome Eng 15, even better looking bench
3 Loving the match-ups May v L R-Z the Glos team mates, Farrell v Williams the experienced capt v the comeback boy, Ford v Biggar both out to prove a point, Ball v Launch & finally Vunipola v Faletau cousins-in-arms
4 Bench players to watch L-C-D & Wainwright
Best of luck to both teams.

This is a must win by a massive score game for Eddie, career defining in many ways. He's picked his strongest squad and an up and coming 9. If these players let him down l think he will start picking players in their correct positions and drop all this domination, pass my leather tracksuit bottoms, nonsense. It won't just be heads that roll it could also be
Mate, this is not the time to fool around with complicated witticisms we are talking about Eddie’s career here. He won’t be bothered about my breath if he ends up leaving the Parc wearing a hat saying chump of the day on the front of it. Take it seriously, these are banana skin times.
Have it on good authority Amazon Prime have been pressuring the officials to ensure an England win thus an Eng v Fra playoff and therefore the biggest paying audience possible.
Expect lots of Farrell thuggery, offsides and English indiscipline to go unpunished.
It stinks. Removed

God your boring, are you as boring in real life?

Yep, he lives in London in a bedsit on his own as even the Welsh have had enough of him (even if he is actually Welsh!)

Never underestimate the Welsh on Wesh soil. But one area where they're edging it....the trolling. I have them a score ahead at the moment. Hopefully some of them will choose to engage in some objective rugby debate rather than the current yah, boo, sucks to you level
We have to put up with the likes of brimmers and bigbaddog. I bet they only qualify as English trolls on residency. If they had a second brain cell in their skulls it would die of loneliness. There are plenty of other English trolls too: you included.
Back on topic, I hope Wales give England a game. It will be a baptism of fire for the new lads. We're going to miss Tips etc. But that's sport. Removed

No HYS on the Itoje article, but imagine how good he will be in 5 years time. Already one of, if not the best second row in the world and still a kid in second row terms.
He could be around for 10 more years let alone 5 golden ones, and how many caps could he have then?
Nailed on for Lions capt. Removed

It’s interesting that no one really seemed to have a problem with Jones until he took charge of England. Perhaps that says something about some people’s prejudices.
Interesting that somebody has removed my Post about Itoje as off topic, not quite sure how a comment on a player likely to have a massive impact on tomorrow's game can be off topic.
We all know who is was.
Anyway, England should beat Wales comfortably, better in just about every position.
But Wales have not become a bad team overnight, and are due a win.

Bosnia doesnt seem to be a troll to me he often makes sensible and salient points in his posts.

There's a few on here who like dish it out, abusive, make sweeping statements without any basis of proof then run off to the mods when they are asked to prove their ludicrous claims, some even have the audacity to claim to have not run off to the mods when it's easy to prove they have.

When England finish runners up in the Autumn Nations next week, do they then become the greatest rugby team ever at that point?
I’m confused about it Eddie.
Do we have to wait until WC23?
Where even if England make the final then history shows they would be 75% likely to lose it?
The rugby world is waiting Eddie.

Wow another top drawer comment full of excellent talking points starting with a prophecy then flowing seamless into challenging questions and finishing with a flourish.
Or alternatively another load of howgwash about nothing from someone who is obviously craving attention, which because I am a kind human being I have given you. There now do you feel better, best you go and have a lie down. Removed

The thing is a certain someone likes to abuse & troll, (just see how many times it mentions my name in an abusive manner without me being even on the HYS site) but like all cowardly trolls he doesn't like people calling him up on it & he runs off to the mods, like he has on this particular part of this HYS.....you can see my reply deleted
