Wales need half time to come ten mins early

It was so much easier to blame Them. It was bleakly depressing to think They were Us. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

Well, the ball is bouncing just right for France. The little things are all going France's way.

Hamstring apparently. If so, out for the game at least.

Yeah, that was a gorgeous, textbook tackle from Josh Adams there. Now that's a tackle you can set your watch to!

Probably next week too, assuming Wales win this one.

Bit of an odd one, cause you'd have to say by the letter of the law it's a clear red card - direct contact to the head, with force, no mitigating factors. Technically it's a poor decision to only give a yellow. But I agree with you that, on the feel of the tackle and the actual levels of danger involved, it was just a yellow.

Clear obstruction there.
Good defence however whilst under the cosh.

You get the feeling that France will regret only being 9 points up at the break. They've left at least 7 points out there and this Welsh team doesn't need to be given second chances.

Can’t see us creating anything .

Controversially , I’d get Patchell on at 12 and move Parkes out .

We need to change this up a bit. Don’t kick to them loosely and get them guessing in defence. Patch on ASAP.

Defence is the main worry, I don't see how replacing Parkes with Patch helps that. Replacing Biggar makes more sense, whose kicking out of hand has been crap.

Yep, a player who isn't particularly flashy bar monster hand offs, but Wales play alot better and look alot more solid with him in the team.

12 offloads to nil. Wales has missed 18 tackles. Interesting.

Our breakdown is a disaster. Slow ball or turnovers.
