I hate to say I told you so... ALRIGHT!!!
haha for all those Welsh fans and Justin Marshall who said Wales would be a major force in rugby after the 6 Nations victory, THINK AGAIN. Beating SH teams is the measure of a team, not winning a tournament which is noted for its lottery factor.

I know I sound like a prick and I hate to gloat, but really I had it up to here when Wales won the 6 nations and none of them would listen to me when i said they weren't that great a team.
Excuse me all the Welsh fans who were a bit more realistic, I don't mean to rub it in for you

SA have been lucky, yes they are better than us but nowhere near this much better, MAYBE 10 points at the most. Stoddart is shitehouse.

Oh sod off. You're basically telling us that we should never be optimistic and that winning the 6N meant nothing at all. Seriously, iI figured any Brit with sense would support a fellow British team, but I guess you are, obviously, lacking any sense whatsoever as that was quite the twattish post. Regardless, I'll be supporting England against NZ anyway.
Get f**ked.
Your friendly neighbourhood Welshman,

It's Dave Pearson. <_< 'nuff said.

God what an almighty disaster. Next saturday is going to be really depressing all night if England and Ireland can't get their acts together.

Yeah, this ISN'T the team that won the Grandslam. We don't have Henson, who is a superb all-round player, and we've really missed his defensive capability's in mid-field. The Parker - Shanklin combination just doesn't work... We're missing BOTH our best Scrum-Halves, as well as our 3rd choice one (Andy Williams is miles better than Cooper), and tbh, it's Phillip's physicality around the breakdown that we're missing the most. Lee Byrne, the probably the best fullback in this years Six Nations is out, so we're having to play our youngsters their. Martyn Williams, well, he's just superb, so it's kinda obvious why the South Africans have had the upper hand in the breakdown.

Yeh, its quite obvious that the umpteen errors Wales made had no influence on the final score.

they SA were better, but the score would have been a lot closer if Wales had a full strength team. SA would still have beaten us, they were just so clinical today, but it probably would have been more like 23 - 17 than 43 -17.

They were better, what game were you watching? they also butchered 4 line breaks in the second half.

come on! would you call that a full strength Wales squad? I think not, not saying we lost because of that, just saying it would have have been a closer game. I mean, Cooper is ****, Staddard is ****, Parker has too many **** games, and doesn't really do much when it's he's 12 and Shanklins 13 (Bishop should definately start at 12 next week). I won't give in to ******* Sky...

Pearson missed a 2m knock on for Montgomery's try, and 5 penalties didn't help. I'm still optimistic about the 2nd test, as long and Stoddart, Parker, but most importantly Pearson aren't on the pitch.

Oh God, Gatland looks totally ****** off. It's as if he'll bite someone's head off if they make any sudden movements. :c
Also, rep point for anyone who makes a GIF of Shane's try; slow-motion for the part where he completely skims Habana.

Nope, but also it was not anything like the full strength SA team. They had to go back to the old laws,new coach,Burger,Fourie,Du Preez missing..

I must say, Bolla didn't play half bad, and all the new guys (especially Luke and Bekker) were AWESOME. Lukie -made- 2 tries.
