You can only admire the grit and heart of Wales And only despair that it has come to this, 43-0 in the supposed jewel of NH rugby

Crazy stuff at the Stade. Wales not even played that that badly and yet…28-0 ht. Record books at the ready. Dupont from another planet

Two Springbok tries, two lock forwards, two beautiful lines of running. So much for big, beastly Boks stereotype. Serious rugby players first and foremost

@colonelstewart @robkitson I’d have two bob on the ‘91 side. Campo, Horan, Little, Lynagh, Farr-Jones, Eales, Willie O… I could go on

So daft. Always going to happen once you start to differentiate. Go back to straight red and yellow

As for Sua’ali’i - quite something for a player to exceed hype.

How many new faffing about rulings can rugby come up with? Ridiculous waste of time that TMO review, even if technically correct

We are devastated to share that our great friend Steve Bale has passed away. A giant of our trade, he covered 400 Tests, seven World Cups and seven Lions tours for the Western Mail, Independent, Express and Sunday Times. We remember his talent, his warmth, and his singing.

A dear friend and great colleague, Baler was a stalwart of the rugby-writing community. Through the tears I’d better make sure my syntax is up to scratch in paying tribute or he would be on my case. Steve will be missed grievously by many.

The worst-news story, which will sadden people through rugby across the world. Steve Bale has lost his battle with illness; only saving grace is that Owen and Lara, who both live in the USA were with him together with Fleur. He wrote beautifully for a galaxy of newspapers, was dearly loved throught the sport and way beyond. My dear mate on decades of touring
