Fair call by the TMO. Questionable if it had been properly grounded.

Ahhh I would have called that a try. Tough luck for Wales. Tmo said England touched it first?

The Welsh player didn't have enough control of the ball for it to be grounding (according to the TMO).

That was cynical by England. Hartley clearly infringed there to kill Welsh momentum. A referee worth a poo poo would bin him.

Edit: It’s Garces, so of course he won’t.

Welsh attack reminds me of their efforts v 13 man Australia in the world cup, it's all bosh, bosh, bosh and then they make a mistake.

They keep relying on one-off runners, which forces them into a mistake, or they resort to a rushed and poor box kick.

Garces is poo poo. Wales boxkicking directly into Brown's arms 500 times is also poo poo.

Same old Wales.

If they have time they can look like world beaters. Put them on the back foot and its just warrenball and crabbing

Yeah, like they did against 13 man OZ. And when they do try and get it wide the ball is so slow that practically every pass ends up being man and ball for the receivers. English defence has been great and they've finished off two try really well. Not sure how Wales can come back into this, considering they seem to want to kick it to Brown most of the time neither do they.

I don't mind them kicking, I don't like them kicking badly. The plan looks a lot like it was designed for Halfpenny being on the field and they've just not changed it.

To be fair, even Halfpenny couldn't make the Welsh jumpers less poo poo in the air against Brown.

They did last week, I think that was all the token input they're going to do this year.

All the put ins have been straight. Straight into the second row.

I dunno why modern rugby bothers with scrums at this point. Just make all the forwards hug for two minutes and then give a penalty decided by a coin toss.

Why the gently caress did Shingler attempt a grubber? It’s a complete lack of awareness. The commentators are furiously fellating him for that run, but guess what? It meant gently caress all, because England are back on attack and in the Welsh half.

No it's not good enough but the Welsh plan is to kick so when someone makes a break the Welsh support is confused as all gently caress. Welcome to Welsh rugby.
