  "World Cup-winning captain Martin Johnson has agreed in principle to become England's new team manager, BBC Sport understands
 His appointment could be ratified by the RFU board by next Tuesday.
 "Initially he was worried it was just going to be a figurehead position and fairly meaningless, but he has insisted he will have to have all the power to run the whole of the England team," "

But is he up to the job?

London Irish through to the semis. A hard grinding match - Perpignan were crap - LI were slightly better.

I hate to say this, being a USAP supporter and all, but your right. Still we went to see Carcassonne play last night, brilliant rugby (especially after watching USAP) and they won, up to Federal 1 next year then. We (Quillan) have their last home match today against Agde and if we win we go up to Federal 2. So a bumper weekend of rugby with the exception USAP.

As for LI they have to get their act together for the semi's because I don't think, based on their performance against USAP, that they will go further but I wish them well.

I don't think that many of us Shedheads were that surprised by our defeat. We are short of grunt and muscle in the pack, especially second row. I hope we don't fold for the rest of the season. I didn't give USAP a chance, but neither did I Sarries. Ospreys seemed to think that they had a divine right to win the HC this season. I also think Toulouse are beatable and would now put Munster as favourites.

Yes, Toulouse looked shakey sometimes yesterday, despite the high score at the end. Against a solid team I think they will fold up.

Morning all - Munster will be hard to beat and Toulouse can be more than shakey as raindog describes them. I have oft noticed that an early score against Toulouse sends them off the wall.

RE Ashton - will he be doing anything at all then or become another Andrew - easy money man.

Ashton says he will resign if Johnno has total power.

Yes, Munster to lift the cup.
