    Looking forward to Wales v England and seeing if England can keep playing this very impressive style of rugby. I really hope Wales can make a game of it, I am sure Gatland has some strategies on how to counter it. Will largely depend which version of Anscombe comes to play as he was pretty dire last time.

    What is the feeling in Wales in regards to their chances?

    what does Hadleigh Parkes bring to the table that Jamie Roberts doesn't?

      Huget having a massive game. Fatbarstadeau organising defence really well and showing some flashes of skill.

      Scotland look dire and lacking any nous or penetration in the backs. Forwards doing OK though with some great defence.

        @Victor-Meldrew Oops France let in a consolation try at the death, but this version of Scotland is horrible.

            What a farcical end to a game.
            Yet also... a big fuck you to the boring fluffybunnies who resisted the bonus point system for so long.

              That's ridiculous. Player drops short, own player drives the opposition off, opposition pulls player over, definite try. Tmo calls double movement.

              Justice as they get the try anyway. What idiot called France by ten?

              Scotland manage to make the Blues look like silky geniuses with amazing vision.

                    Taff loose forwards being pawned by the Poms back 3. Welsh lineout its usual rubbish self.

                    Some great defence from Liam Williams - class act.

                      @Victor-Meldrew I think this could blow out,I sense Wales are hanging by a thread..First half impressions dominant England defence close in and also getting defenders in amongst Wales backline attack

                        Has Gatland not watched the previous 2 Pom games?
                        Exact same shit, kicking in behind time after time, but no tactics to defuse it.

                          I cannot fathom how Hadleigh Parkes makes the Welsh team. The Welsh must really have a midfield deficit if he nis considered good enough. Bloody hell poor guy, he must be about 45 by now. And Anscombe, well...Wales have only yhemselves to blame.
                          Seriously though, England's dominant D is and should be of real concern to Shag and everyone else.

                            @ShadowTrooper you would definitely have to look at taking them on through the middle or around the fringes..it’s does bother me if anyone knows how an All Black Team operates it’s an ex All Black coach and in John Mitchell he’s got England’s defence humming ..been the feature of 6 nations,agree about Parkes always considered him a cart horse

                                  @ShadowTrooper not everyone that heads overseas carries on being the same player they were in a different league several years ago. Parkes has been good for Wales.

                                  How dumb was that by Tuilagi, surely grabbing someone by the throat like that ends in a ban.

                                    Now Sinckler. Gee I hope England keep him as a starter.

                                      @Bones I was about to say the same thing about Sinckler,he’s one you get under the skin..Wales staying in the fight even though they looked toast at halftime

                                        England team warning. Sinckler gives away 2 penalties in a row for foul play and only gets a individual warning. Weak Peyper.

                                          It's not often you see a guy subbed in rugby because his coach is worried he's going to get carded. What a liability.
