This 6N has been written off and it's basically a trial match

Indeed, focusing on 2027 now. Oh God, I’ll be nearly 80 if I’m spared.

Laughing at Faletau winning a clean turnover but looking at the ref for a penalty.

Fair play, you usually get the penalty.

Zammit would not look out of place on a 1930’s cigarette card.

Which is madness. He had clean ball and actually stopped to look at the ref, allowing the English to grab it. It's like they have lost all sense that they are competing for the ball and not a penalty.

Thought we'd stuffed that for a second but good hands.

Posted: **Sat Feb 25, 2023 5:05 pm**

Nice try, run good lines and move the ball quickly through the hands and bingo - it's a simple game really

Posted: **Sat Feb 25, 2023 5:06 pm**

England actually, apart from some rusty moments, looking quite good. But you have to take into account the opposition.

Moral victory for Wales will be a 20 point loss.
Nope I despise both sides equaly
No worries, I for one will be supporting you whenever you play England.

Nice try.

Then gie the 3 points away grr

I hadn’t considered the entertainment value of Wales getting an utter shoeing at home.

England looking decent, but think it’s difficult to overstate how bad Wales are

We know they do.

Not sure if i'm being harsh but this is a poor match and spectacle so far.

Posted: **Sat Feb 25, 2023 5:19 pm**

The Welsh scrum is really shoddy, the heights are all different and there is space between the players, they are not a tight unit.

Last match was much better. But since i was within 7 points on that one and did not predict a try fest here I have allowed myself something to be interested in it.

Not the intensity you normally get in this fixture

Tipuric doesn't look fit

Posted: **Sat Feb 25, 2023 5:26 pm**

A couple of years ago, Wales would have scored there.

Posted: **Sat Feb 25, 2023 5:27 pm**

Everything Wales do is laboured, or the timing is slightly off, or the wrong option, it’s really poor. Just seem to have no real plan

Posted: **Sat Feb 25, 2023 5:27 pm**

This is dire.

England have played well in parts but 8 points is a poor return

I think Reffell would be more useful considering the type of match being played but not sure if he is fully fit.

Game summarised in 2 FBs:

- 1/2p was finished as a club player when he was at Toulon.
- Steward is good at one thing: catching a ball. So Wales spend an entire half kicking the ball to him.

Posted: **Sat Feb 25, 2023 5:29 pm**

For all the chat about how poor Wales are..England could very easily be behind

I've already wiped that first half from my memory.

Backrow sooooooo slow to every breakdown and Wales then compound it by one out runners who would struggle to get support at the best of times.
