**** me, 12-0 at half time to England!

Indeed! Looking at the text on the Beeb, sounds as if England are playing quite the game! Hope they can keep it up!

Wales look inventive and exciting when they can, but again, the breakdown is key here. Some lovely lines being run, though.

Its going to be a different AB's that come out of the tunnel, lets hope England can keep the pressure up and don't do anything stupid.

Superb stuff from England! Sounds like it was very well deserved!

Now, let's see if Wales can hang on and make it a Northern Hemisphere sort of day...!

Not a good way to end. Let's hope it's not too serious.
A bloody good game for Ha'penny too.
EDIT: Agree on the MOTM too. 😀

I have been watching school sport but couldn't resist looking at the scores as expected to get thumped. Then it became addictive. Roll on the highlights at 7:00! When we heard that the AB had scored tow quick tries it looked ominous. Heard Matt Dawnos say that England had a magic 15 mins.

Bad luck Wales, I thought you had got that too. Hope halfpenny is ok and you bounce back.

Well I predicted a 30-40pt hammering - and I was right.

Just got the teams wrong. 🙂

I somehow wasn't surprised when Wales snatched defeat from the jaws of victory (again).

This doesn't make England world beaters but at least they've finally made some progress. The forwards were pretty decent.

well what a performance from eng... shame Wales couldnt match it. Could anyone explain why Eng weren't as fierce in the tackle and breakdown in the previous two games? freddie looked v good tho, but can he do that when the 4wrds aren't as dominant?

Mu interpretation is that they were told to go an get the ball from the AB's, rather than waiting for the ball to come to them. The AB's can't play with a ball they don't have, although suprisingly the stats show pretty close on the possession front.

Very very pleased with that. Best ever margin against the all blacks. Senna I know as little about rugby as the rest of the pundits!
What was good is that England actually worked hard and creates GE win, it wasn't a lucky try (as per their loss last week), it was creating and taking the chances. Even Manus interception was due to NZ having to chase the game so trying passes that we're never on.
Really enjoyed, bring on the six nations.

in my experience surely "getting the ball" is vital as if you havent got it then you wont score? but they did seem more up for it today, intensity was more apparent. what needs to be realised was that they still gave away two tries, in my IMO the subs needed to come on 5 mins earlier.

With a second row pairing of Ryan Jones and Lou Reed it wasnt suprising. Lack of bench and lack of composure killed Wales.

Dont forget our bet Wrecker!!!!

Watching Wales today was like watching the Scarlets, good work in the backs (like running the ball from your own try line under pressure) which fills you with false optimism but with little going on up front... plus you always have the feeling the game was 10-15 minutes too long for them. Perhaps not surprising given the number of Scarlets playing. Ospreys and Blues need to get some form in to strengthen Wales before the six nations and the doc really needs to find his best magic sponge
