Seems to have gone pear shaped since subs started coming on?

This is dreadful - not exactly looking forward to the World Cup at this rate

Re: Wales vs England - Saturday 5.30pm
Ref has made a right mess of the scrums. Has no clue what he's doing or how to keep control.
Handling has been ridiculously shit. Don't know what we've been doing in training, but it's apparently not included a rugby ball as so many players have seemed startled when one has come near them.

Even Freddie ‘safe hands’ Steward is knocking it on…

Given the sheer amount of kicking we do, you'd expect us to be better at it.

This has been about as bad as I can remember us playing. Fair enough it's not the first XV, but still terrible.

What the actual shit England. We appear to have given up on the idea of winning the match with accepting box-kicking duels, and then, when we do have the ball in hand for once, we spill it in the tackle. Fuck's sake.

Willis did well off that scrum (while JVP was running backwards in an offside position?) and a good touch to keep play alive there.
That's about all I've got.

Several are quickly ruling themselves out.
How that wasn't an England penalty at the scrum I have no idea.

Phillips tuntiett (sp) are calling this the best Welsh performance in a long time.
Our feed froze with Theo Dan taking the ball with a run up. We said he will do his best Guy Porter impression and then when the feed resumed he knocked on.... Par for England these days....

Pearson and Ludlum have run around .a lot, but there's not been much in the way of breakdown skills.
What the fuck is the TMO looking at, he's clearly slapped that forward, then landed on it.

Martin at tighthead with Hill on the left. I guess it says something that seems interesting.

Joy Neville really is a terrible TMO
Having to be guided through making a decision by the referee is ridiculous. Absolutely zero faith in her making a decision

Absolutely agree. Rodd got very low borderline too low but got himself back up and their tight head lost control

So, who’s impressed? Marchant and Steward?

Another good carry from Willis.
I think Ludlum has been ok but the back row as a unit is not functioning. Precious little is.

Maybe our lot have booked Autumn breaks or something. The East Med stays pretty warm until almost November.
