Things looking grim for Wales. If this continues and they lose, is Gatland likely to resign/be sacked or will he be there for the full tournament? I don't know what rugby is like on that front.

I’m not sure a new coach would do much, At International level that is the best players they have at the moment, just shows you if there is a blip in the conveyor belt, the quality just isn’t there for Wales at the moment.

Well it was coming

England been under a lot of pressure and then when they have had the chance to put their own pressure on have been poor in execution

 

[Arthur Wedge]

And then that how the heck did they manufacture that

 

[Lord Tyrion]

More of the same please

France are lovely to watch though.

 

[Arthur Wedge]

Sometimes it would be good for Marcus Smith to just do the simple option - very lucky there

And another poor line out

 

[Arthur Wedge]

Not been a great game for M Smith

Fin Smith on the other hand has been very good this half

 

[Arthur Wedge]

That’s horrific

 

[BrianM]

England really miss Farrell in my opinion, he is a quality 10 and kicking superb.

 

[Arthur Wedge]

That’s brilliant from Baxter - been excellent since he come on

Give the kick to F Smith

 

[Arthur Wedge]

One quality pass from Duponte there just opened up the whole pitch

 

[Arthur Wedge]

Get in there !!!!

 

[Arthur Wedge]

Finally they get the win and this time from behind

Don’t see a Grand Slam this year now

 

[AmandaJR]

Wowza

I felt we got ahead and suddenly tried not to lose. Same in the Autumn. This time we had time to come back at them. We needed that result.

Nice weekend to be an Englishman living in Wales

Had my Welsh mate text me saying he was supporting England. I told him we don’t need glory hunters.

Got tickets for the Wales game, I’ll meet him for a few beers before and bring the text up

No, we don't want him back. Apart from bombing out over in France, he is a liability on the pitch.

Absolute garbage, he is a quality player and a great kicker, that’s from a Scotsman as well
