Cipriani: Enough is enough

I liked this guy one year ago. He looked like a real promise, a project of a player. A good player. But we have been fed Cipriani for breakfast, Cipriani for lunch and Cipriani for tea, dinner, supper and even during slumb.

And the guy does not deserve it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He cannot behave, he cannot kick, he cannot lead England and he simply WILL NEVER BE a good rugby player.

The last news from him is that he might be better looking for some aid for his kicking in the NFL.

Oh, please, do not make me laugh. Hundreds of players in South Africa and New Zealand are just younger, better and no one pays any attention to them. They make it their own way and no whole country will give them any advise for him to eventually become the fucking national hero. Much unlike Cipriani.

He's only 21 and he's already burnt out.

Please, do not talk to me about Cipriani again unless he scores a hat trick against the Springboks or the All Blacks. I just can't stand it.

Cipriani axed

The pearl of the english rugby has been excluded from the english national side by coach Brian Ashton.

The reason? He's been found by some journalist during a night out.

I am no seer but a side with so many "accidents" is not to win a tournament like the 6 Nations. Focus on the tournament is a must.

England were supposed to win a Grand Slam this year. Everybody was expecting it. Now, it is not sure whom they are actually fighting.

Danny Cipriani does not want to commit himself to rugby discipline, while perhaps Julian Huxley won't be able to play again.

Danny Cipriani at the 6 Nations?

I am not going to say nothing new about Danny Cipriani. Recently, a glimpse to what the 2008 would bring on Planet-Rugby predicted him to be the most notorious thing to happen in Engand's rugby during this year.

Just three days earlier I watched the London Wasps vs Bath game, featuring him as the real star of the match. Just 30 seconds would have passed before the umpire conceded a penalty to the Wasps on their own field. Danny would take the ball and kick to goal and before I could sit down the score was 3-0. London Wasps never looked back.

From that moment on, he would be scoring from every part of the field, penalties and conversions until the very last moment that he would miss a conversion. Not bad.

He's got what is today needed for a first five eighths: phisically talented, fast and superb kicking skills. And he is just 20.

Why now? Will he be included in the 32 named by England's coach this week to represent England in the 6 nations? Will Jonny Wilkinson be the monster that took his side to triumph last Sunday just by kicking penalties and drop goals or will he start any game on the bench?

(Oh! how much we do miss Super 14 games!!!!!!)
