Can we laugh at Wales?

I don't think they will win, but putting up a spirited performance considering they lost 62-20 (or thereabouts) to Wales last year.

I shall disown my Welsh half if we do not pull it back! :D


The Canadians are not that bad. They regularly trounce USA and beat Argentina now and again.

It was on the cards. Wales had a gear or two to step up and the Canadians have more holes in their defence than a block of Eda....swiss cheese.

Stephen Jones has made a huge difference as well. :bowdown:

I think out of the two (England and Wales) I'd rather be Wales. Both started badly but at least Wales raised their game and looked like scoring tries. I'm off to Paris on Friday for the Springbok game and I am much less confident than before. Surely England can't play that bad again.

Hmm Wales comfortably beat what is probably the strongest of the minnows, while England struggled against the considerably weaker USA ... and we're meant to laugh at Wales?

I still think Wales will have to be at their best to match Australia but, as SONZ points out, England have rather more to worry about.

In fact, given that Ireland have got to pay a strong Argentina and a wounded France and Scotland looked less than fluent against Portugal (by far the weakest of the minnows), I'd say that Wales had probably the best weekend (or the least bad) of all the home nations.

Yeah, where is the 'laugh at Ireland' thread? Their performance was truly shocking and they may be as good as out of the tournament already. They will have to improve astronomically if they are to get out of the group. 32-17 against a team that South Africa put more than 100 past recently? And they only got to 32 thanks to a penalty try and a try that should have been disallowed as the player lost the ball before crossing the line.
