Wales vs England - 13/08/2011 - RWC Warm Up

[j-dawg]

If Ashton, Tuilagi and Flutey were playing, theres a good chance we could be 3 tries up. If Wilko was playing, we'd be knee deep in penalty points.

Regarding that Tindall break, not only did the Welsh backline catch up with him, they overtook him, tackling him and turned the ball over. He should not be starting no matter who he marries.

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

i wonder too. Flutey did not look quite there last week but he just needs more time! bearing in mind the circumstances I'd be tempted to bring on armitage to replace hape but i'd be worried of damaging armitage's confidence when hes just coming back into form. Playing him out of position (i know he plays 12 sometimes but still) would maybe do just that.

I dont really have a problem with tindall, as you said more the Hape combination, i also think flood doesnt really help and makes some really poor decision. However i cannot stand Banahan, for a 6"7 18 Stone man he doesnt break the gain line enough, (how he didnt score that try i dont know) and just limits us in other ways.

North to Full back??? some have been saying that for a while.

WTF jamie roberts yellow carded??

 

[TNT88]

Rolland please be consistent with people diving over the top of the ruck, seems Wales are getting pinged for it and England are getting away with it.

Wales are getting treated pretty harshly at the ruck. I thought 1 or 2 of those would go to Wales for England not releasing. But at the same time Wales don't look great once they get the ball so it is hard to complain. Towards the end of the half he started picking England for not releasing, Wales do seem only to go for the turnovers when the England player is isolated. So they should be getting a few more penalties there, at least i'd guess that for the 2nd half.

 

[Getofmeland]

Roberts is in the BIN!

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

jamie roberts sin binned. nows our time.

 

[TNT88]

lol saying that, definitely yellow card. Sorry 13, can't pick it up in the ruck contest.

 

[SelimNiai]

Consistency?

We wish, Bananaman should be in the bin if Roberts is.

 

[james10mgs]

Lucky Lucky Banahan!

 

[TVH11]

did i just hear Shane at 15??? WTF

Rolland has just bricked it, Banahan committed worse than Roberts :O :O

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Ah fair play Rolland bottling it there sunshine.

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

hape ripped of the ball...dear god man please get him out of here. ref could have done us a service by binning bananaman

 

[Getofmeland]

The Pitch is awful, just cutting up under any pressure

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

great work there by Fourie. he's been awesome.

 

[SelimNiai]

It's terrible, said in first half the pitch has been relain 25 times in 10 years.

 

[TNT88]

That probably should have been a yellow. England will probably get one eventually though, especially if they commit another blatant penalty like that.

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Im going to poke my eyes out with Rolland officiating with the scrums.

 

[Getofmeland]

It's terrible, said in first half the pitch has been relain 25 times in 10 years.

Yeah I heard that... not good, questions need to be asked about it...

 

[TRF_Olyy]

When's this game over?
