Ireland cruises past Italy as expected but Argentina v South Africa tonight should be interesting. Rugger is far more interesting with a strong Argentinian team. Live on Sky Sports.
Big game today psychologically. Just hope we dont pick up any serious injuries in the next 4 games. (Very) Warm weather training in Portugal between the england and ireland games. Its all about being in the best place we can be physically and mentally when we land in japan.
I found a really ****ty feed which is just about watchable but it's behind real time... so I'd better stop reading this thread because of spoilers! At least I could look forward to that score Great score by Gareth Davies.
Sounds like englands pack have hit their straps quickly. Wales making a lot of unforced errors. Only listening on Radio Wales. Lets see if, as in the 6 nations, wales come on strong in the last 20.
A **** first 15 mins, we just kicked our possession straight back to England and deserved to be 14 points down. We did well to get back into the game but the try before halftime was poor. Both sides look rusty but we’re making the most mistakes at the moment. We can still win this though.....
I am up in Rumney Cardiff watching this in a local pub, England are looking good for the money fair play, though we are gifting them points, that last lineout was shocking consideting were it was, we need to get our act together second half.......
Not too concerned about the result but the way the games being played much more concerned about potential injuries,we do look disjointed with little fluency with the ball losing it in the tackle or misplaced passing is making us look poor ,hopefully a better second half if only to raise the confidence levels
Given the ‘scratch’ team that Eddie selected, Wales were the favourites. That first half may be just what was needed to give them a kick up the backside....
