Big Al Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 The best team did win - despite Dylan Hartley's best efforts to muck it up. Sadly, Wales looked bereft of ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoggysreels Posted March 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 My wifes poor vat returns cost "me" dearly, but thats another story Think England had done its homework ... at every level they competed, matched and ultimately took over .. enjoyable game. l liked it when the camera went onto the croud, after the first try ... it shown a guy dressed as a Knight, he was stabbing a red Dragon ... both of them were laughing.... thats what good supporters do .. enjoy the banter ... "Good supporters as in the English and Welsh .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick miller Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 That's the beauty of rugby, it's good sport on the pitch and in the terraces. Not sure what happened to Wales in the first half, it's as if they were lost for ideas, if it weren't for England conceding so many penalties the score would have been awful for Wales.

JDog Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Great game. However I believe that we need the French to beat Ireland heavily for England to stand a chance of being crowned champions. The Triple Crown is simply not good enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old rooster Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Next door neighbour had his mates round to watch, their cars soon disappeared at the final whistle! He's Welsh and was sure they would whoop us. Looked close at times, that first try must have naffed them orf a bit! Our under 20's gave them a good sorting out earlier in the week.

Llanshooter Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 If it wasn't for the penalties both sides gave away ( well Wales and Dylan Hartley) there wouldn't have been too much to talk about apart from Danny Care catching the Welsh asleep. Still, enjoyed it. I am English living in Wales, My son claims to be Welsh but is at Uni in England. Needless to say sympathetic, fatherly texts ensued Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fletcher1004 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Fantastic game!! I even liked the comments the two footballing types had at half time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonker Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 (edited) Great game, But the Welsh wouldn't have scored a point if it wasn't for giving stupid penalties away. you have to admire Halfpennies kicking though. Best team on the day won, England had more intensity, Lawes was outstanding Edited March 9, 2014 by tonker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDAV Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 An amazing day ! I was fortunate enough to get a ticket! E bland showed some creativity for once! And it paid off much better day out than last year!!!! If only they could stop giving away silly penalties, if it wasn't for care being creative with that first penalty it could have been very different! BTW I'm English! Just lived in Wales for a few years.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainBeaky Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Need to have the French beat Ireland narrowly, or for England to put a cricket score past Italy. Or both Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul223 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Ireland surely And I'm sorry guys whilst England did play well (inspirational) at times, there were plenty of missed opportunities where Wales should have took them, I think you were lucky! Once again we looked like the beer got the better of us. Come on Ireland !!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoggysreels Posted March 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Which game were you watching ... lol England controlled Wales ... they played as best as the English allowed them to ... luck? ... as in a welsh team standing there like lemons as Danny Care nips over the line ... luck ? ... no excuses, they were beaten by a better side.

Paul223 Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 (edited) Ha I was watching a game where England should have conceded a try or two, the opportunities were there we spent long enough sat around your 5 yard The England team are getting better, even so they were lucky that for whatever reason Wales seemed, once again, to turn up but not switch on Edited March 10, 2014 by Paul223 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old rooster Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Need to have the French beat Ireland narrowly, or for England to put a cricket score past Italy. Or both Not beyond the realms of possibility, the French have played badly and not got their fast game together for ages, just needs that to get sorted and they are in with a good chance. We should beat Italy convincingly but then again we should have whooped Wales this time last year so who knows. I guess that is all part of the attraction with the 6 nations!! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
