I kind of agree with you there. The Triple Crown is big. Our first one for 11 years I think?

Edit to add:....look what happened 11 years ago too!

Not according to Brian Moore - only Grand Slams or Six Nations titles count:

To be fair Brian Moore is a prick

I used to always love reading his stuff but recently have been getting a bit bored of him...unlike me, he can't always be right, can he?

As I watch through the iPlayer he usually commentates on the England games, (not sure what commentary you get watching it through Bellend Sports) but I like him as a commentator, he's honest in his opinions and says it how it is. He can often be heard shouting in the background when there's a wayward pass or knock-on.

I do realise though that most people hate him.

I liked him as a player strangely enough, though I doubt he would survive with his own playing tactics in the professional era. Him and Martin Johnson were two love to hate players that you had to grudgingly admire.

I can't stand him as a commentator, plus as an 'expert' he gets a lot of his calls wrong. Fairly standard though for anyone who spent his playing days nose down in the mud or about to be nose down in the mud.

May I refer the honorable Gentleman to Richie McCaw.
