My optimism was partially misguided!
Indeed. Certainly in the right direction.
I thought Dickson was abysmal. So slow to spread it our and/or make a decision and the Welsh had an easy job closing us down. I would not have put money on Lawes being the man to hand over the ball so weakly...
I have a feeling in my aching bones that it is going to be a vintage performance by England and a crackerjack of a contest (It has to happen sooner or later, right?).
