      Totally deserving of the lead.

      Great defence.

      We need to use the ball better.

          Wales win 18-11. 13 wins out of 13 and a shot at the Grand Slam next week.

          Forgettable sort of game, not helped by the Murrayfield crowd being so passive.

            Played the Get Out of Jail Card
            Tremendous defensive effort

              The most interesting thing about this game is eavesdropping on the young English lad near me educating his obviously brand new girlfriend on the rules of rugby.
              I'm going to invent a word for his method... “mansplaining”.
              Eng 31 Ita 7

              Edit... gonna change that new word/term to “idiotsplaining”.

                              @sparky still born and raised in England, pretty harsh to label him Dutch not English. English mum, too.

                                  Wasn't being harsh.

                                  They have all qualified for England and identity with England so they are the England Rugby team as far as I am concerned.

                                    Not really sure what Eddie found out in that game that he didn’t already know. The score looks good but IMO a limited and pretty dull England performance, Cockanasiga aside. Tuilagi looked good going forward but shown up a bit in defence.

                                        He’s growing into it but IMO is a step or two behind Wilson.

                                          @Catogrande He really should have started a few more second stringers, No 9 for a start. Basically you can bash a very poor team (see ABs B team last year) with a big back line. But apart from that?? I agree this was a wasted 'learnings' opportunity, but maybe Eddie wants confidence more than 'learnings'
