    It’s going to be an interesting one tomorrow - are there some on here who who’ll be struggling to support a team where several are 1st/2nd/3rd generation immigrants who have come to England and taken jobs away from English people?
    …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

        Wish I was watching this rather than getting score updates on my phone. Sadly it's looking too much for Wales to come back from now.

          Looks like they're getting their arse handed to them on a plate.

                Not got the benefit of TV since they were switched off last month due to some whiner.

                Judging from bbc it looks like a blackwash....

                  Now, I was actually looking at how this could be pinned on the English, is there nothing more recent you can hang it on?

                    It’s frenetic.

                    ABs having a bit more luck (although I think of Gary Player who may have said “The more I practice the luckier I get”)
                    Some of the ABs handling has been amazing and perhaps the score doesn’t reflect the play, but that might be my NH bias.

                      All credit to the ABs, they payed superb rugby at dazzling speed. So did Wales, but without quite as much speed. For me the main difference was that the ABs always had a man at their shoulder; a lot of those little short passes were played blind, knowing their guy was on hand so they kept the momentum and denied Wales (or anyone else) time to reform the defence properly.

                      Great and entertaining match of rugby though. Main takeaway for me was the strength of the young Welsh players coming through the system. Next year will be interesting.
