For me personally, I beieve England have a powerful game and finally have a back line which is not in disarrey and have found several star players.
But, they don't have the wining ability of say, the AB's. Teams have worked out there game up front, have been a bit surprised about the ability at the back in the 6N but hey aren't making teams worry about losing. They need confidence and time on the ball through a winning streak IMO now, but they don't have it.
Can't see SA or the AB's being too worried about them unless they allow themselves to be sucked into England's game plan. And even then...
They're almost becoming a bit French in their 'ability' to leave their heads in bed instead of bringing them to the game with them.
Phew, some quality finally after 20 mins. Good try Wales.

Ref stood watching Castro binding on the arm and pings rob evans! Its no wonder scrums are such a mess with such inconsistent refs.
ach, the Italian pack have earned the "bias". Ive said all month that I reckon the Italian pack will embarrass Wales. ANd I was expecting parisse to be doing it and hes not even on the pitch.
Have you really? Did you know we would lose at least 4 props to injury. Who are you mystic meg?
check out my balls.
Who is the commentator and why is he so retarded that he can't discern the difference between George North and Liam Williams?
Last week Eddie Butler couldn't cope with the fact that North was playing on the right either and kept mixing the two up - and now this numpty.
For the BBC Welsh Wingers Recognition Chart:
George North: Big lunk and all round hero.
Liam Williams: Long streak of piss with a nasty attitude.
If that fails, try reading the numbers on their backs and matching them with the team sheet.....

Ha, I was ranting about the same. This was after Castro bored in on Evans and Evans collapsed. 2 illegal moves by Castro give Italy the penalty. The ref is confirming my hatred of the morons who spoil games. Wales can do that without any help or hindrance!

Andy Nicol as upbeat as ever, bless him!
Why all the Irish pessimism? They have to be fav's......

Ireland are favourites to win it though they should kick themselves for losing in Cardiff after such a dominant performance against England. If England nick it there shouldn't be much celebrating as with the RWC coming they need to improve some more from here.
@Kryton, nice choice. I gave up my tickets too, will watch in Paris on TV. Expecting a dull low scoring game ending in an Engkand victory and second place in the Championship,
Jarvis binding on the arm now.
Any dropped passes and try butchering yet! Is the "English" disease contagious ? 😉
"Someone with shaggy hair" it really is the c team with the commentators.

Getting exciting now!
North failing to deliver still.
North failing to deliver still.
Agreed.
He should have at least four......
Bet the teams in white and green are getting very nervous now!
This is genuinely exciting and I'm ****ing loving it - more Welsh tries please! 😛
OMG!!! I thought better of Italy.
😯
Bloody hell look at the score. That's sunk England IMO.
Bloody hell
Aaaahhhhh sh*t!!! 😆
Looks like a trophy should be on its way to Rome, that could be egg on the face of the organisers!
Italy are utterly clueless at the moment. I'm giving the tournament to Wales.
OMFG
Good stuff by Wales.
This means Ireland can't win the 6N by kicking it in the air and running after and England can't win it unless they do something special - which they won't.
Come on Wales!
Bloody hell look at the score. That's sunk England IMO.
Agreed, an England win isn't a formality by any means and will be by a small margin in the event of a victory. Championship depends which Irish and Scottish teams turn up. Hard to believe it was 13-14 at half time.
Just splibbed in my pants 😆
Just lead to an interesting afternoon now, both Ireland and England are going to have to go balls out to catch them at point difference! Ireland will actually have to chase tries!
BH Wales - brilliant show. Looks like they took the two trophies to the wrong place!
This is killing the afternoon quite effectively!
EDIT: That's more like it.
Arses.
Well, that sets up the afternoon!!
And that definitely was a try too.
Well that Italian score may just be the most vital score of the Championship!
Wow. Who cares about "winning the game first" now. It's tries tries tries for all. Going to a good few hours!
So, putting Ireland to one side for one moment, do England have to beat the points difference or match it to win the championship? Does the England vs Wales result count?
C'mon Scotland & France! 😉
Ok that's us done over to you lot now
That was brilliant to watch, good work Wales
England have to win by more than 16, Ireland by more than 20 points.
Big ask from both teams & Scotland won't want a big woods spoon so will be tough to beat in Edinburgh.
Not been this tight for years I think!
Just told the wife Im walking to the pub. I may be there for some time. Dont let the kids see me when I get in.
🙂
brilliant. Now the 6N champs have to have really gone out and won it today. What drama!!!
Why are we sending pro rugby players out holding kids hands. It's rugby...???
Lots of props in the Irish team! but why have the numbers the wrong way round??
