BUT we won the most important one and knocked you out of your world cup and won the 3 previous times to 2014 too
Lancaster era. Doesn't count.

how many world cups have you won?
Don't forget all, Wales never lose, the opposition just score more points
lol where the heck do you get 5? The world cup was just over 2 years ago? with many of the same playersSo you count a game where Lancaster completely bottled it and changed the entire team setup and a series of games from 5+ years ago as proof that Wales are currently a superior side? Wales have lost as many games in the last year as England have in the last 5. The current England squad hold every single NH team record. By what metric are Wales better? 2 wins in 5 years against England?

Which 5? You have beaten us 2 times in 5 years (the world cup and 2013). Wales have lost 6 games in the last year, England have lost 6 games in 4 years so counted that a bit wrong. Similar players for Wales but not for England. Of the 23 players in that game, 9 have little to no presence in the England squad any more. If we say how many of the England squad started in the same position in 2018 as 2015 world cup you get 5 players out of 15. Some started both games but in a different position (Farrell and Lawes). You have an extremely broad definition of "the same".

I don't know the question used but how is "it should have been a try because the referee asked the wrong question" the same as "it should have been a try"? We have evidence there was a knock on therefore it should never have been a try. We could then go and whinge to the WR saying the TMO should be investigated for not spotting the knock on. Literally EXACTLY what Wales have done.
Just to point out this is now the 3rd year in a row in which Welsh fans have claimed the entire reason England won was down to a single decision (either by players or officials) and tbh it is pretty arrogant.
2016 - North not being in touch (fair enough) but following up with the claim it was a guaranteed try afterwards when Webb had just run down a dead end facing 2 English forwards 2m from the side lines with no room to maneuver.
2017 - JD2's clearance kick. Again little credit to England for the counter attack and the claim that if it had gone straight out it was a Wales win.
2018 - A 50/50 try early in the game that alone wouldn't have been enough to change the result anyway being used to claim Wales would have gone on to win.
This of course ignoring Wales getting an illegal try and the whole stupid tunnel situation in 2015 and the roof nonsense in 2017. Every single year we are getting this idiotic behaviour coming from Wales in this fixture and it's wearing extremely thin. Oh add to that Biggar *****ing like crazy and more whinging about a try decision in the game before England went to Australia and Wales to New Zealand. Just one year I'd like a Wales - England game where the only drama is the rugby result and not the petulant behaviour we have seen in recent years.
