It was an absolute treat to watch the Ireland England game on Saturday!!!
Such passion in the Irish stadium, and the Irish team rose to the occaision making the English team look like rank amateurs.
It is not that I am against the English team... On the contrary, Having been born in England, they are one of the teams that I do support.
It was nice to see the teams clapping each other off the field at the end of the match!! You dont seem to see much of that any more do you?
It was nice NOt to hear the spectators booing the opposing team when it came to taking penalty kicks (in the minority, unlike some matches in Australia that I have watched lately!!)
Nice to see a rising Italian team, although in all fairness the luck did go with them in the beginning.
Lastly the Welsh side, played with pride and passion, but the French flair made one of its appearances, and the French ran out as deserving winners.
I really enjoyed my weekends rugby!!
How did you see the weekends matches?
