Did it nip round you Michael with a gallic sidestep and show you a clean pair of frogs legs as it dived over the double yellow line for a try.

Fancy a frog at an Italian restaurant.

Maybe... but the best teams still manage to walk away with something even though they've been out-played.... tenacity, you could say. Had Wales got that late try, I'm sure they wouldn't have seen it as a hollow victory, but one that was hard-fought.
Contrast this game with the scrappy, dull Ireland England match. Also does irritate me immensely that Inverdale moves straight on to dissecting why England lost rather than praise Ireland for being the better side. He did exactly the same thing when Wales beat them. Getting a bit sick of the England Broadcasting Corporation being a licence paying Celt.
Most people are entertained by England being ruthlessly destoyed by the pundits. Besides that most viewers are English for a BBC broadcast - the same happens on BBC Wales where the Welsh are only interested in the talk about Wales win or lose.

    • Thanks ianr. Does everyone get the same Covid vaccine? Re your other things, I don't think the NHS records  are very joined up in various respects, despite (or because of?) the various NHS and GP apps. If you are in the vulnerable group for flu, and also for Covid, is there any reason why you are choosing to have one jab but not the other? Your choice of course, but as I understand it, both flu and Covid are expected to be very prevalent (can't think of the right word) in the UK this Winter?
    • So what you are saying is that shops encourage shoplifting as it is good for their business?  Rather a curious view. However.... for every stolen good there has to be a market, whether from a shop, burgled house, stolen bike so those buying knock off goods are guilty too.  As you infer. And one size doesn't fit all, petty shop lifting, kids being naughty, those desperate due to poverty - including addicts both to illegal substances and 'legal' including gambling, and those making a business out of it are very different.
