Putting aside the depressing performances of the last six months and the player drain to France, is not the petulance shown by the English players of real concern? The team is obviously lacking in confidence and their play lacks a rythym that succesful sides develop but their individual reactions to decisions that go against them and in particular the receipt of yellow cards is totally unaccepable.

The very best part of rugby and especially at junior level is the absolute respect for authority, so the sight of players walking away from penalty decisions shaking their heads and mouthing obscenities needs to be stamped on by the manager and now before it gets copied in the junior game.
