So what's a more unprofessional performance.....

.... Burnley losing at home against a team with 10 men for 85 mins or England only managing to scrape a last second draw against Scotland, at home, having been leading 31-0?

At least they took the fight to Scotland to get a draw.

We played against 10 for over 90 minutes and had no idea.

Sorry, Fenwick - I should have thought on...

As for the morning after the night before....I'm still annoyed at how Burnley threw it away yesterday. Anyone can go behind against a team playing with 10 men, but to do that twice is almost unforgivable. Even a point would have been reasonably acceptable

As for England, I can only think they were just too arrogant and got what they deserved. At half time, Eddie Jones should have said, 'don't take your foot off the gas...absolutely crush them'. SImilar events with this England team have happened before...but they don't seem to learn.

These are meant to be players at the elite end of sport and I would expect them to be able to do their job.

All in all, deeply annoying/frustrating. Mind you, wtfdik!!!??
