Thats wrong. Ref decides short, is influenced by welsh players to go to the video. Shame on the ref.

I'm not a rugby expert so i'm probably talking nonsense but why do wales always seem to kick the ball back to England so cheaply,england look the much more athletic team,surely that's a losing strategy over an 80minute match.

Liking AWJ as captain - good chat with ref, not arguing.

If it's short, it doesn't matter - game stopped anyway - best to check it.

Let's just say the breakdowns are being contested 'enthusiastically'. 😯

Why did Ford kick that with time out?? Drive a few yds for a pen at least.

Good half! Flashed by. Brilliant move off the scrum for Wales' try.
No idea who's gonna win this one!

Well played wales. I though England's strength would be too much at one stage but good pressure and great try

Excellent match. Heart is pumping!!

Wales have avoided kicks to touch for years. They want a high ball in play time as they back their fitness and defence...rightly or wrongly.

The dogs have stopped coming over for a stroke as I tend to grab hold of anything nearby when it gets exciting 🙂

A good half. More of the same please

Yep great stuff!!! As long as England can keep Wales at 5-7 points ahead, I'm still hopeful that our bench will see us to a slim victory! Not convinced though.....very tense!

Yeah Wales need to put the game to bed by 55 mins if they are to stand a chance.

I think Wales will sneak this; AWJ looked massively fired up for the anthems.

Wales seem to be much better at the breakdown than us.

Thought England were going to start running away with it after that try. So glad we managed that try, should have kicked those extra points though.

Moriarty has been immense. Wales work in the rucks etc is killing us currently.

Worried about our #10 channel

Hope Rhys is ok, Ford has a big pinkie and that must have really hurt

Wales' defence is better and I think that'll edge them this tight and bloody thrilling game.

When we play well we are better, but it's too infrequent. Still we can make tow late tries......(hope springs eternal)

I need my HRM to check the stress levels !

All the high tackles have been innocuous today, so good common sense

Agree about the ref, great game. There's been serious competition for the ball in almost every single ruck and he's managed it brilliantly. 2 point game. Jeez!

Hope there are no silly yellow cards to decide this.

Great fun
