What difference does it make where they were educated anyway???????????????

Answer 8

Check to see which ones were enjoying the team celebrations in the bath a bit more than the others.

Answer 9

SMAC you deserve a smack for your incompetence at asking a question. As has been pointed out, there is no such thing as a UK rugby union team - it was England who played and won.

I assume that you are trying - albeit very clumsily - to make some point about the elitism of rugby in England. Well, you are about 10-15 years too late on that one. While it may have been true that the vast majority of the England squads of the 1980's and early 1990's had attended private school, that is no longer the case.

Does it matter anyway? Does anyone really care where the players went to school? It seems that the only people who do care are the old school socialists and arch-feminists who know nothing about the game but want to take a swing at it for any reason they can latch onto. Time to grow up, my lil commie friend.
