  • Wales v England

    Anyone think we stand a chance today?

    England have been pretty poor but so have we. I'm going for Wales by 5.

    Yes I know some of you don't like the egg - please try not to get too upset by the post.

    England are crap at the moment

    Indeed considering how many players and clubs they have to choose from , they are a let down full stop

    Wales should win this , by 15 I reckon

    Bluebirds !

      Re: Wales v England

      Too close to call on paper.
      England have been awful so far and Wales have had the rub of the green in their two matches .
      If the England pack rediscover their rolling maul then Wales will struggle. Alternatively, if Wales deal with Youngs/ Farrel hoofing the ball down the pitch then England will be chasing their tails.
      No arguments about the roof mean that it doesn’t feel the same.
      Bookies are giving Wales a 6 point head start. Frankly, I would put a tenner on that.

        England's main strength recently has been attacking kicking game and Wales' main weakness recently has been in the kicking game.

        Think it will be similar to last 6 Nations game where Wales can score quickly but England will dominate most of the match. A lot will depend on whether the improving Welsh defence can keep England's score low or not.

          One question -
          noboozed up fans allowed, so why do they have to play in the biggest stadium in Wales?
          They could easily play at one of the regional grounds, or even Llanrumney playing fields.

            Why not though? Why aren’t our games played at Jenner Park?

              Sadly in this instance I think the bookies are about right. I think they will have too much for us up front unless we get to play 14 men for an hour again

                Exactly, ridiculous point.

                Can't really call this one, we've been lucky our first two games. The line-out will need to be working today and it's been weak for ages.

                I'll go for a draw 😜

                  Wales have struggled to win against 14 men in the 2 previous games and if England finish this game with a full complement I think a defeat may be on the cards.

                    Been pissing down for weeks, council couldn't mark the pitches so park games are off!

                    If its 15 v 15 we might struggle.
                    Hope Wales win obvs.

                      I think it will be very very close. Wales by 3

                        How thoughtful of the RFU to arrange the KO for 4.45pm so as not to clash with the City game.

                          Strongest team Wales have had fit since the WC. I think we'll nick this one.

                          Sosban fach!

                              Too close to call. But always pessimistic against their lump of a pack.
