The weather was poor but even factoring in that the kicking by wales was very poor , it was a ball up your jumper day today but they couldn't even get that right

ENGLAND WIN THE CALCUTTA CUP!!!!
:shrug:
It will be he Severn nations soon with South Africa joining , instead of playing in the southern hemisphere competion .
Ireland's record in World Cups gives you the true story of their abilities - they're over rated.
They were there for the taking after their nervy win last week, but Wales started so poorly and allowed Ireland to build momentum, we showed more inventiveness than under Gatland and scored a classy first try, but we were way below Gatland standards when it came to the physical confrontation.
Do you mean underrated?
Think the two following quotes show what we're looking at over next couple of years:
Quote:
26 minutes of poor rugby. 1 of minute almost perfect rugby. Wales in the lead. Welcome to the Pivac era.

We'll have to wait and see but I fear that Wales have aimed to become a successful version of what Scotland have been doing over past couple of years whereas Ireland yesterday showed what we could have been with Shaun Edwards as head coach, and were much better for it. Four years is a long time and ultimately it will be the next World Cup that says which 6 Nations team has got new appointment right.Quote:
Wales made 16 offloads today. That’s a pretty radical change. It’s going to take time for the Pivac-Jones attacking game-plan to bed in, as it did at the Scarlets. It’s worth showing patience with. But, in the mean time, the defence needs to be better.
