    Glad Wales seem to have stopped falling off tackles like the first 15 minutes!

    How immense is Faletau?! 😀

    Bit of a dodgy looking tackle by England on 20 minutes too 😕

    Cracking game!

    Looks like the ref is a big fan of League, tackle made, only the attacking side are allowed to be near the ball afterwards.

    Why not go and ask him that yourself! 😉

    Ford is really worrying me. He looks like a rabbit in the headlights at the moment. How the rest of the back line are supposed to play around that is beyond me.

    Vunipola totally neutralised so far.

    Ford is looking shaky, I’d agree.

    But…..Waaay too early to call still!

    Yes, but the knock-on uncertainty in the centres in particular could be costly.

    Classy drop goal.

    Well played Wales.

    I had Wales for 19 points on the predictor game at work. That’s at risk at this rate.

    England look more dangerous. Wales settled line up playing to advantage. If wales score first it will be a big ask for england.

    England need to get the ball, get down field and stick around. There are scrum penalties to be had here. The problem for me is that I’m not sure Ford is the right fly half to maneuver England into the money areas.

    England being quite cute running warburton meaning he cant jackel. Makes tackle monkey Lydiate redundant too.

    One thing about being harsh on Ford, though. His time is cut down by Youngs. He always, always takes a step to pass. I hate it when scrum halves don’t whip the pass arms only sometimes, when an extra half yard could make the difference.

    Lots of egg chasing but not much skill. The one moment was that clipped pass thru for the England try. Oh hang on that was footbalish!

    Ref having a mare for me, penalising england for not rolling away, but not penalising wales, surely consistency is a given at this level

    Alas you’re right CFH

    Not a great start to the campaign. England forwards excellent.

    I hope the ref isn’t going to win the match. That would be a travesty.

    Big HT team talk, but agree with Sir C about subs.

    Really don’t like captains (or other players) saying, “Ref, ref, look at the replay!”

    Regardless of what side they’re on, by the way.

    Cap’n I was thinking exactly the same. That and the constant appealing for infringements

    Novice question, why do tacklers sometimes try to hold up the ball carrier?
