[QUOTE="Thingimubob, post: 173581"] Nah it was Duncan Jones who knocked it on after the ball popped out of the ruck (likely from the boot of an Englishman trying to ruck the ball). Gareth Edwards said on Scrum V yesterday that the last 5 minuites of driving it up through the forwards gave him a bit of pleasure, because even though he doesn't like that kind of play, if you think about it - it's the way England like to play, so it was nice seeing Wales do it to them for once. I think they'd have passed the ball to Hook for a DG, after something like one or two more pick up and drives, because there was about 1 minuite left, but Duncan knocked it on. Not teh end of the world, would have been if England scored, but lucky for us, they didn't. Don't think Phillips was selfish, he just gave the forwards a hand. Sure Warren Gatland, Shaun Edwards and Rob Howley will look at it, and tell the team itr was a good way to run down the clock, but we should have hammered the nail home, and put the game to rest.
