  • Englanv Wales

    major concern is if Jones's inexperienced back row having not picked his best team for the start and they don't perform well enough to hold the Welsh in the first thirty minutes and he has to substitute a few early instead of like last week keeping them till the end if he gets a few injuries he could well end up with a short team on the field at the end, going to be one hell of a match.

    as I said one hell of a match and a great spectacle, all my son said after the match and I agree with him was PHEW some great performances from the players on both sides

      Defo a cracker Alan. Not sure we deserved it... Again. I think Cuthbert made a MASSIVE mistake at the end and allowed Daley far too much room on the outside. Cuthbert is a winger and probably though he had pace enough to allow Daley that room... Problem is, Cuthbert isn't that quick for a wing and Daley is pretty darn quick! Finding a way to win again but as you say, I'm not convinced over that back row set up. Roll on the next game!

        Great game, Wales didn't so much throw it away, as kick it away! England have more "get out of jail cards free" than a monopoly game!

          initially it was Davies poor kick that let England in for the last gasp winner buy Daley inst Cuthbert only one winner. Don' know what was going on in the back row Itoje picked at blindside but Lawes played there.

            Yeah seemed a bit odd. Both pretty mobile and athletic guys so I guess Jones views them as interchangeable.

            One or two bad decision cost you games at that level. Thoroughly entertaining stuff though! Much better than the football!

                what I couldn't understand was, Lawes tackled and tackled and got up and tackled some more, which Jones noticed and commented on and said that he had ice packs allover, yet when the stats came out for most tackles he wasn't mentioned, to me he was way ahead in the tackles made count

                  I'm not sure how they count Alan. Maybe the first guy making contact gets credited the tackle. If lawes was second man in to 50 tackles he wouldn't get a single one to his name despite putting in a hell of a shift. Not sure to be honest.

                      watched it in costa tequise alan, very dissapointed.
                      a better team will hammer us.

                        we've played two good teams that should of beaten us and we won, we should beat Italy very convincingly but still have Scotland and Ireland to come two teams that have showed great improvement and capable of beating anyone, going to be tight

                          the italy game should be easy alan, but you never know.
                          then the 2 big team's, however, we've played poor and still won, so maybe thing's can only get better.

                            the worry is we could play well and get beat, Italy should be a doddle
