I am going to assume you didn't watch the game.

We took it as a training run which was disappointing. When you're playing the convicts then you take the points on offer not practice for chasing a game in the 6 Nations.

Still, I won't lose any sleep over the result in a non competetive match. After all 21 years since you beat us in a competetive game.

It was a competitive match, or didnt you see the trophy presentation through the post match tears?
PS - your only try was very dodgy

video ref disagrees, your only try was from a forward pass!

There's a trophy presentation after the charity shield but it's still a friendly. 4 times England went for the try instead of taking the 3 points. Do you think in a non friendly they would have done that?

EDIT! Make that 5, I forgot about the one in the first half.

You know there's a difference between "not allowed to express an opinion" - and being told your opinion is rubbish, right?

and which one is "u lost, get over it". It's hardly constructive and offering a different opinion is it?

No, but it's as good as you will get out of DAM, other than a copy and paste job from AdelaideNow.

From what I've been told, it was a one off with the kits being auctioned for "movember". However another source tells me, they're being worn for a year as the "change" kit.

One would think a change kit would be worn away from home if anything. I thought I heard a commentator saying something about respecting the royals, but wasnt sure if he was taking the piss as if that were true, wouldnt they wear royal blue?

I agree, unless it's in a world cup then we should always wear white at home!

Purple is the colour or regality!

A little research tells me that in the 70's England players wore purple blazers which they were given like "caps" when they represented England. The shirt is supposed to be a representation of that blazer.

It will be our "change" shirt. It was worn on saturday as that was the day we launched the new kit. However, we should always wear white where possible.

You should also remember that NZ whinged when we had a black change kit. To me our change kit should be red.

Wallabies win again (despite still being crap), and England lose again. Its fun.
