Its good to see such pride in England rugby from the groundsmen to the coaches to the players. Its definitely our winning formula.

[@o2sports]

Couldn't agree more Andrew Sayers. All set up for a great World Cup challenge in 2015.

[@Keiphton27]

This was brilliant.

[@berniebrookes122]

great insight into the pitch and the tremendous work those guys put in to give us the best pitch possible...should have kept the formula a secret though!!!! lol...

Twickenham is like what croke park in dublin would be like if it was built all round and of course aviva too

[@captainexistence]

Yeah true, unfortunately though we can't add on to hill16 in Croke Park or onto the Aviva, because the smaller ends of those grounds have railway lines and housing right behind them both. Twickenham looks gorgeous, a credit to the grounds keeper and staff.
