I predicted yesterday that England would get a red card.

Reversion to the mean and other simple statistics are almost as powerful in the, nomen omen, field. Ask this guy: nate silver - Google Search

Mostly historical data and ill-discipline. The French are similar.

Actually, my algorithm was not trained for yellow cards, of which England got one.

Gaël Fickou did a beautiful judo throw against Wales .. it is illegal. I remember it happening to me in a competition. And that's after the arm was put back into  place.. (actually, we practised it last Monday for fun only :-))
In rugby the danger is a broken neck/head. The Kiwis love the spear tackle when they want to remove an opponent, see my post of feb 15.

I shudda done training set on the under-20 Grand Slam. Like father, like son?

England's cause was not helped with a red card and a yellow in the second period.
