[QUOTE="Jashay, post: 1077242, member: 78812"] I think England have easily got the firepower to win this, and home advantage too. My concerns would be our perennial discipline issues, and Ben Youngs starting. Not in just my usual 'why are we still playing Youngs?' way; his main point of difference is his kicking, but the Welsh backs are traditionally really, really good in the air so we rarely get much from it. As well, Wales have been hard to bash through recently; their weakness seems to be on the wing, with quick ball to the outside exploiting a narrowed defence. And since Youngs can't give quick ball to save his life, I think starting him will make things needlessly difficult for us. [/QUOTE]
