I don’t think I have ever seen an international with so many errors
Wales now above Scotchland in World Rankings!!!
I always said they were a great barometer of a teams excellence!!
Wales team to play Pumas on saturday. Surprised with starting props as the two on the bench are better. Obviously a big test for Wyn Jones and Lewis. Would also be stronger with Bradley Davies at lock and Ellis Jenkins at 7.
<b>Wales:</b> Hallam Amos; Josh Adams, Scott Williams, Hadleigh Parkes, George North; Rhys Patchell, Gareth Davies; Wyn Jones, Elliot Dee, Dillon Lewis, Adam Beard, Cory Hill (capt), Seb Davies, James Davies, Ross Moriarty.
<i>Replacements:</i> Ryan Elias, Rob Evans, Tomas Francis, Josh Turnbull, Aaron Wainwright, Aled Davies, Gareth Anscombe, Owen Watkin
Phil Mitchell on wing for Englandshire again!! 😠

So he and May are the two best wings England have available? At least he won't be called upon to pass the ball being the last man in the line.
Apart from being pish, Brown was badly exposed for pace against the BaaBaas. May is a headless chicken who couldn't tackle a fish supper - albeit a fast one.
The ABs LEFT OUT Waisake Naholo, Ben Lam and Julian Savea but England have these two clowns.
Why bother taking Cipriani but leaving him out altogether?
Phil Mitchell would be quicker !!
Watched the 1st episode of All or Nothing: New Zealand All Blacks. Available on Amazon Prime and all good torrent sites.
Pretty good. Quite watchable. Nothing groundbreaking but about a million times better than that awful Lions Uncovered which was a fine example of technical film making and editing but was also incredibly boring and contrived at times. Not to mention showing none of the action either.
Strange England team for Saturday. Rather than having too many second rows, now have too few, why Piers Francis and why Brown - please tell me!!! Robshaw will go - probably by Shields. At least Daley is playing in the right position and the pack is generally ok. Shame for Launchbury

Weird isn't is. Not much bulk in the centres, Mike Brown on the Wing, 2.5 Locks against a very physical SA side. I'm willing to bet Ford will get smashed, and I reckon we'll see a Farrell/Cips partnership in the second game. Looks like creativity over bulk, although thats not really our strong point.

Aye right you ruddy windup merchant of a pot noodle miner! 😉

God knows why Brown is on the wing; it’s been done before and didn’t work and he’s lost some of the little pace he had too. Eddie seems to very much be slipping into the same trap as previous coaches of picking players no matter how bad their form is (Ford, Robshaw and Brown spring to mind) or how shagged they are (Mako and Itoje).
Struggling to see the point in taking Cipriani if you’re not going to at least give him a spin off the bench.
Paddy Jackson to Perpignan.
Interesting screline in NZ
Normal service resumed 😂
SPOILER ALERT......
Getting less interesting now it's turned into a thrashing. Shame, Les Bleus were looking promising into half time. Dodgy try to finish off too.
Japan beat Italy
Yellow card France

Pen NZ

Should have been 2 blacks in the bin on that, ref said just a penalty as the French player was already going down !!!!
Always rated Brown as a winger!! 😀
Lively stuff, to put it mildly. Not sure either coach is going to come away from this looking forward to the WC.
England imploding
Did England’s opening salvo make them overconfident? or did SA just start playing.
What a game.
That NZ thuggery is just typical of them, see also their U20s.
While the rest of rugby is trying to help with player's welfare around concussion etc, the arrogant asshats keep on doing it, and keep on getting away with it.
They play sublime rugby, but so many nasty, cheap shots go either unnoticed or unpunished.
Great game that!
It's not really news to anyone that England are absolute shite at present. Not surprising really.
A wing at full back.
A full back at wing.
A fly half at centre.
A number 8 at flanker.
A flanker at lock.
I wonder why it's not going to plan?!?
Maybe, just maybe, Eddie ain't all that...
Robshaws form has dropped off a cliff too and Itoje has become brain dead.
Still you can all laugh when Wales lose to the Jaguares tonight!
It's been a disaster for NH rugby so far. It's all resting on you now!
Anybody seen Jones confrontation on a mobile phone somewhere?
Cant see this weak Wales team winning tbh
Don't suppose anyone has a link to the EJ post match interview?
Any thoughts on playing at altitude adding to Englands woes? I haven't seen the match just the try highlights.
