Wales vs England - 16/03/2013

Quickest half of rugby ever.

England were hanging on with their fingertips in that half. Wales dominant in a lot of aspects.
 
Hibbard surely leading the race for the Lions 2 shirt?

Brown finally winning me round, still would prefer him at 15 though. Robshaw booked his place on the plane this 6N and maybe even the Lions 23.

Great game, intense, physical and end to end.

Shame Farrell threw the ball into Tuilagi's face at the start because at that angle, there is not a chance Cuthbert would have stopped Manu.
 
That's what I'm talkin about. No team really going wide but a quality game. A few knockons and silly penalties, but that's ok. If every 6N match was like this or even half this quality and suspense this year I wouldn't have been wappin.
Wales have a real go at winning the tournament again !!! I wish I could speak welsh right now...uhmm....Go Cymru ?!

Farrell's penalty wide but still finds the goal, what crazy luck...and the Welsh drop going ever so slightly wide at the end of the half.....

But Wales look like last year's team, or at least good shades of that. Very pleasant to watch, what redemption to their fans for their earlier slide the past year.

And uhm.....DAT SCRUM.
I'm sorry, but my final conclusion: France and Wales have the best scrums in the world.

Absolutely hands down. Best has done himself no favours this Six Nations whereas Hibbard is playing brilliantly.

Good impact from Vinupola in defence.

Edit. Ashton should have been penalised there for over use of the boot. Roberts had moved as much as he could.

Welsh 16 off his feet for that turnover.
Literally lying on the ruck. Walsh is am embarrassment.

Alex Goode needs to start running that ball those kicks are leading to nothing but Wales possessions.

Great try from Cuthbert, nobody can deny that he can find the touchline
 
Surely that's hands in the ruck?
Wasn't supporting his weight and ruck was formed...

I don't think Owens actually made the turnover. He went in, but let go, then England lost control of the ball and it spilled out.

Edit. Farrell missed again.

Edit. Great work from Phillips to hold up Vinupola. Phillips has been great once again. He really does step up for the big games.
 
Jesus Christ, its not a bloody maul if the ball carrier is lying on the floor.


Edit: Christ Walsh, just go and jump off the Severn bridge.
