Surprised at how few caps and only one try for Strettle! It comes down to the injuries he has had but really thought he had more than that

Strettle fell out of favour as well - not big enough or something. Banahan stole his caps.

Oh no, Brian Moore commentating (when will they give these games to Sky?). I'll bet a tenner that he moans about crooked scrum put ins at least 3 times in the first half

Because he's right, agent! He knows his scrum-onions.

That was a brutal passage of play. Great defending by England, but must be draining!

england defence looks pretty strong but they cant keep that up for 80 mins!

Dont think corbisero is going to have a good day against adam jones

seems odd that you can still get a penalty after a half-arsed attempt at drop goal

Could be a very long day for the welsh centres if Manu gets a lot of ball!

Good to hear comments on the 9-standing-on-the-ball-for-hours-at-the-back-of-a-ruck-gate! ๐Ÿ™‚

Good game. The standing around the back of the ruck with the 9 in the england 22 is getting annoying though

Since when did it become acceptable to slow play down so much.

Maybe. But tactically the right thing to do in the 40th minute.

This is good. Still Wales to win though. Really wouldn't want to try to put down Tuilagi. He's big yes, but so strong!

Yeh I can understand that but it has happened every time England have had the ball in their own 22.

I think Dickson might get pinged for that second half. He is having a great game though, SO much quicker than youngs when we're in an attacking position. That was a first half of two halves, no? Still think Wales will wear us down then score tries late on though. Still, v. happy with the performance so far.

And Manu clearly wins the battle with Roberts ๐Ÿ™‚

Good game so far. Wide open, which is great for us spectators. Encouraging signs from England. Still a bit rough but certainly an improvement. Big question mark over Botha though; he looks completely out of his depth.
I think Roberts has had enough!

He is going off. He looked like he struggled not his best game

Well I'm not sure Wales will be doing the hanging around at the back of the ruck again!

Have England been practising charge downs? ๐Ÿ˜•

We're going to lose. ๐Ÿ™

What was that about slowing it down in the ruck?

...or maybe not now after getting penalised for it.

England are starting to look a bit tired and raggedy.

Can't believe the amount of time that is being wasted. Years ago this would never have been allowed.
