I'm not watching this and I'm glad. Sitting in the Pleasance Courtyard, Edinburgh Festival, lovely sunny afternoon, pint, red arrows just flew over.

Saw a comment on line that Twickenham had a better atmosphere during covid.
And are there two g’s in Bugger Off?

I fail to understand how fully professional players who've been in camp for two months can be so lacking in cohesion or capability. The number of handling errors is unacceptable.

Seems harsh to carry a penalty warning indefinitely, particularly over half time

Nah. I'd like to see more of it. Why should you get the slate wiped just because of a break? Just encourages cheating.

It's been a trait for a while now, anything decent just ruined by a botched pass.

All Wales need to do is pile into defence for three or four phases and wait for the badly chased kick or the inevitable bodged offload.

Yellow was harsh and not sure the warning should have carried over to that situation, but he properly braces himself on the ground beyond the ball first before turning that over.

With those kicking timers, do the kickers have visibility of them?

Superb attacking talent. It is good England decide to be more attacking with Farrell while telling Smith and Ford to kick everything. Really gets the best out of them.

I know he got binned, but are you really going to take Arundell off without passing him the ball once?

Am I right in thinking that's not the first time Steward's done that? I feel like I've seen him do that before to someone who's beaten him in the air.

I think that's a yellow. Comes down on his side. Penalty try too.
His lack of pace/acceleration an issue.

Doesn't matter if a try is scored. If they think Adams would score in a better position it's a PT.

Seems appropriate. Now Eng can claim to have an excuse for playing league.
