Which are the best seats at Twickenham?
David FitzGerald
is the best place to sit at Twickenham? Some grounds seem to have good
and bad sides, especially where sun in the eyes in concerned.
Ruling out the royal box, or any corporate hospitality seats which are
the best (regular) seats in the ground?
Many thanks,

in your pocket just incase. West is in the shade and can be bloody
cold but still great views.

Under the North Stand. Ground level. Follow the black arrows. Enter the
enclosure. Lower the black lid. On the back of the door you will see a
sign that says "Welcome to Wellington, we hope you enjoy your visit. To
help us provide you with a superior viewing experience, please take out
with you what you deposit here. Thankyou."

Don't bother stopping off in Australia. I did, and they won't let me
leave because I add too much class to the place.

I'm looking forward to England winning in the most boring fashion down
under. Just for the hell of it....
Hey Rick, say fish and chips for me mate....go on....

England will not win in Australia or New Zealand. No mater how boring
they are. All right, they might win in Austraia. Even the Springboks
can beat Australia.

I imagine Nik will have something to say about this.

Well that settles it then, eh? Quite a "balls out" prognostication
for a team over which there is still some doubt as to over the 1/2
back combination, midfield combination, full back and left winger.
And that's just the crew behind a mediocre scrum ... You also don't
haven't a really solid lineout on either island, have an undersized
tight five (without a hooker who has demonstrated an ability to find
his jumper at crunch time) and that has no real driving ball carrier
who can take up static ball among the entire eight.
In the light of the above, it's altogether remarkable that the bookies
believe you have a good chance of being right.. but I tend to doubt
it.. in June anyway. The ABS are a work in progress.
Cheers,

Yeah well, the bookies and me figure that if a third string
development team on a NH holiday can come within an ace of gutting
England at Fartress Twickers, then odds on a first string All Blacks
can at the very least return the compliment when the old hacks in
white come down here on their summer junket and play us in the prime
of our season on our home turf.
It's not exactly rocket surgery.
The ABs are a work in progress or otherwise I'd be expecting 15 points
or more, but as it stands, just a win would do. Although I'll be
hoping for a good old-fashioned hiding.

I guess it just proves that you are just as much as a convict as the rest of
Australians.

Times have moved on. They are more likely to be asylum seekers, refugees,
people with lots of money or Accountants on the run from Tel Aviv. Why send a
convict to Australia? Leave them in the UK.

You've obviously been unlucky.
