They were saying after the game that next weeks game Vs Italy is Wales biggest game for years, imagine that 😳😬 2 hours ago, Rim Fire said: Very fast 🤣 First 15 mins I was thinking it might be OK, then France kicked it up a gear and Wales had nothing else, some good defence but nothing going forwards 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedward Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 Looking more and more like rugby league, what happened to hit the space not the man ? - or am I living in a time warp ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your supposed to hit the space in league as well, 'run at spaces not faces' But the defenses these days are so good you don't see many spaces, certainly not when the forwards ( or Welsh backs 🤭) are trying to blast through at the ruck because they've ran out of ideas. The French ran at space and offloaded great last night, that's why they won so easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sussexboy Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 I may not be the most experienced rugby viewer, but why can’t England defend without often giving away penalties? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JKD Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 (edited) Well it's pretty much an equal match, despite England up 10-5. A bit scrappy but some good play by both sides. Edited February 1 by JKD Correction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperGoose75 Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 Not much to separate the teams at half time! England's defence is looking pretty solid. Ireland failed to make hay with an extra man for ten minutes. All to play for in the 2nd half Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKD Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 Playing a similar game ? Entertaining, but certainly no classic 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ireland failed to make hay with an extra man for ten minutes. All to play for in the 2nd half 100% can't split them. Really happy with England, need some more lines like the one Earl ran.

It's very fine lines, under massive pressure you get caught offside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mice! Posted February 1 Author Report Share Posted February 1 Ref killed us there, he'd said 'any more players running in will be off' clear penalty to Ireland being tackled in the air, not dangerous just a second too early, Ireland pile in after the whistle and he did nothing, I expected him to reverse the decision which would have given us an advantage 😥 Itoje getting penalised at the line out when he's done nothing 🤷♂️ Great game though, I'd say Ireland deserved the win, some brilliant lines ran, much better passing, foolish English errors that shouldn't happen at this level, the England 11 on his debut had a very mixed bag. For me you can't rely on kicking the ball high to put pressure on the opposition, Ireland got it right, Parks Lowe and Aki * had a great game. *thought Aki had retired from international Rugby?
