although the real rugby is happening further oop north, thought we might as well have a thread for the rah-magnet, 'oh my jonty smashed that hooker right proper' variety.

England/Australia at the weekend - only game on (aside from indie favourites Japan v New Zealand). Corbisiero's out, but don't see that as a terrible issue for this game. Wonder if Billy V will get a start.

In other news, Ireland's Conor Murray might miss a fair chunk of it as he's in front of the citing commission soon for an elbow. Mike Phillips has also been sacked by Bayonne. What affect will that have on him for Wales, if any?

Anyway, people who actually know about rugby, please talk.
