Oh yeah :)
 
Lost it in the first half, but well done England <cough>
 
:police::police::police:

Closest I could find to crowns!!!
 
Not sure I like a) celebrating "winning" penalties or b) obstruction being the norm these days.

Too close for comfort in the end (and that finger raking should have been a yellow at least IMO.)
 
Once again England prove thay can only play for 60 minutes.

really? did you notice it other than when it was played back in slow-mo? I doubt it. Best side on the day won, no arguments there though.

Ha ha ha, England did'nt need to play for any more than 60 mins, we ( Wales) only managed to play rugby for 10 minutes, the other 10 were spent thinking about it....get over it, we were beaten by a side who played a better game.

So it doesn't count then....
Didn't realise there was a time limit on cups won.
 
Yep, a worrying second half. Well done Wales for the scary bits!

Anyhow, "Come on Scotland" :banana:
 
When are Wales going to turn up for the start of the game. They have the game to beat any of the Northern Hemisphere side but they always five them selves too much too do. England worked them out in the first half and deserved to win. Wales need an alternative to Plan A. I'd like to see PriestlNd and Rhys Webb start against Italy because I think they inject more snap into the Welsh game. All this crap about was George North in touch or was his disallowed try good doesn't address the main issue, Wales have got to start better. So many missed tackles which is so unlike Wales.

Finally, nice to see Mike Brown cementing his reputation as the worlds worst loser and worlds worst winner. What a dick.
 
Saying it was nice to beat them because of there being a rivalry is being a bad winner? Something that Welsh players and coaches have been saying since time immemorial

Some people really are precious :hug:

I think Wales should stop being so generous, and giving the opposition a head start in the first half....

...and that's from a Wales fan by the way :runaway:

He's a dick. Most disliked player in world rugby. And that's from the English press.

His interview after the world cup game against Wales was priceless. I don't think I've ever seen a rugby player display such petulance.
 
Looks like Joe Marler could be in some trouble not only for striking Rob Evans in the face but possibly for comments made to Samson Lee during the match. Think Eddie Jones might have a bit more trouble explaining this one away than he did defending Mike Browns use of the boot against the Irish or will he say that if your head is on the ground it's ok to put your forearm into it? Tomas Francis could also be heading for a lengthy ban for his efforts which did not look good on the video. I know it's in the heat of the battle but why would you want to strike someone who can't defend himself?

A few things going on now - investigations into 'racial'abuse against Samson Lee, a forearm 'smash' - Marler on Rob Evans and eye gouging by Tomas Francis on Dan Cole.

EDIT: Already mentioned above!

Apparently Marler has apologised to Samson Lee. Looks like he will miss the grand slam decider as he could also be cited for the forearm in the face incident as well.

Shame but the authorities need to set an example and ensure that these type of incidents are stamped out.
 
Come on Scotland :banana:
 
Good job by Scotland. Great of them to help us English out :-)

I agree. If I was being kind I'd put it down, in part, to new coaches in England and France but it just looks dull.

I could have had tickets to England/Wales yesterday but it's the first time I remember thinking just not worth the cash
 
Hats off to England! Well done lads....Ireland have put in a miserable attempt this year....but alas st paddys day is upon me and I have started early....
