Subject: [NT] WCQ vs Brazil

I didn't say yours. ;)

Nicely done, now all we have to do is work on the humility ;)

Mine or Gibbages?

I was happy as we did definately deserve the win and I am happy to have beaten a top 10 side twice in the groups as I never managed it in the u21 tournaments. :)

Please tell me I was not coming across that way! :/

congrats matey, looking good for the world cup :)

Thanks I am happy that the qualifying campaign went well but I am nervous about the finals, I know we have done well in the past and I do not want mess things up. I feel we are starting to rise in the rankings but having seen the Israel players at younger age levels I am worried that we are not going to remain a force without some more structured training of our Juniors.

What do others feel?

Don't ask silly questions :P.

10 seasons time England will have a strong NT again.

Why in 10 seasons?

Tsk. Need I point out the many quality 18yos there are in England at the moment?

True but we need them all trained well don't we. ;)

I can help you on 2 levels there :

a) relegate to IV, park my team and just train Terence Raine.
b) sack my Israeli under 21 player.

a is fairly likely to happen anyway, b I might need some persuading on...
