And I hope to the gods above you are right!!! I'll be there fancying it up, I would love to be wrong, I would love for players like Dee, Anscombe, Rowlands, Willgriff, Tompkins and Co to become the world class players they have rarely threatened to be...

England aren't good, let's be honest. It's the weakest England squad I've seen for a few decades, it's lacking rounded tight 5 players, half backs who can manage a game, or settled centre pairings, and lacking a great 15. But their power, intensity, breakdown work and defence will be too much for us.

If we beat them tomorrow, and there is no red card, no clear ref bias (like 2013) and we beat them through performance I will 100% acknowledge it.

You keep talking about not being able to compete with Italy, but Italy have better players than us, in a combined team Italy would take at least 9 of the spots IMHO.

Also I've seen people talk about Wales getting back to where they were, I don't think that's reality, I think our next GS is a long way away, but I hope I see another in my life time. Wales are where they deserve based on how the WRU have run the game in Wales
