Re: Wales vs England - Saturday 5.30pm
largely been a glorified fitness session for the backs so far, as they just chase kick after kick.
Coka is going to need to do some fairly explosive stuff at some point to make up for not being able to catch.

Wales backrow a bit underpowered as a unit Wainwright’s a good player but they badly miss Falatau at 8

Think we're just going to have to put this one down to rustiness and a scratch side and hope next week is a bit better structured.

Am I imagining it, or did we just use Dombrandt for what he's good at, rather than just a Billy stand in, twice in a couple of minutes.

Well we're playing plenty of rugby in the Welsh half. Far easier on the eye now we've abandoned the "pressure" kicks inside the 22.
Just far to inaccurate from England so far. Dominating the Welsh side but not showing it on the scoreboard.

Only Coka and Martin? I'd be sending most of them that way, most the forwards have dropped a ball by this point.
That second drop by Martin was a hospital pass from Care, the first one was really shoddy though.

For the dropped pass from Marchant alone.
The one just gone was Halfpenny playing the ball having not released. Had the ref been closer would have been a penalty.

The prescription on those Tiger tinted spectacles has been strengthened, I see.
If it calms you down, Steward seems to have added some speed in both a straight line and laterally.

Can be Andy Goode's last game commentating?

Taking into account the skewed view Scrumpy Barrellscraper seems to have of him.
Would have been harsh to punish North for that as a deliberate knock on, when he really should have caught it but was too clumsy.
