[2020 Autumn Nations Cup] Wales vs England (28/11/20)

[TommiG88]

Why are we still taking the points against Tier 2 opponents?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

EJ T-posing in the stands to assert his dominance

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Dem skillz by 22

 

[Grizwald]

Farrell generally in the worst form I can remember him being in. Be interesting to see what not playing at a high level week in week out will do for him.

Should be going for the corners on the penalties with a 11 point lead.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

It's funny you have Farrell who is a better kicker from hand, but Ford is doing all of them.
and you have Ford who is a better goal kicker but you have Farrell doing it.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Shocking game

 

[MattGaff]

Poor Game. Score flattered Wales. We showed absolutely nothing again.
Can't see any positives from this.

Well, apart from the pasting that never came. Happy about that I suppose

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

It's a smart move by Eddie

Gives Pivac enough credit that the welsh won't sack him.
Very smart

 

[Reiser99]

Not a great performance. We need to stop lowering our standards to the level of our opposition.

 

[Not Mike Brown's Sock]

Let's just move on and forget about that.

 

[Goodey]

When was the last time England won in Wales by more than a score?

Wales +14 at even odds is a bargain.

FTR I knew that England would win by 11 with Farrell missing 3 kicks. Took that into account.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

France will tear us a new one based on the autumn tests so far. We haven't faced a side that keeps the ball alive and our defence is built around breakdowns and fanning across the field.

 

[Grizwald]

Meh England lacked a lot of the intensity they showed last weekend. Wales gave a decent account of themselves.

Not if they put out a team similar to their one for Italy - FFR may have screwed themselves

Nah it's very much the other way around under most circumstances. Farrell is just having a mare right now in general.

 

[McTallshort]

Good to beat Wales but thought they were unlucky with the ref. Not like Ireland were moaning about the other week but properly unlucky

 

[Jimbo]

Does youngs have to be injured before we give another SH any time, atleast you had Care at one point with some actual international experiance, beyond a joke.

 

[Ospervat]

Wholly unsatisfactory on so many levels.

 

[TommiG88]

Good to beat Wales but thought they were unlucky with the ref. Not like Ireland were moaning about the other week but properly unlucky

Wales got more decisions in the 2nd half, so I don't feel you're quite right.

Is it?
In the league Farrell hasn't gotten a better strike rate to Ford since Ford moved to Tigers
