England v Wales ..a game where players don't throw themselves to the ground...

[wehatepalace]

It's also a game where there are plenty of nasty little digs, stamps and eye gouges... the sooner everyone remembers they don't care about rugby the better

Having played rugby for most of my life and at a decent level too, I have only had my eye gouged once, the referee saw it gave him a straight red, and as he trudged off even his own team mates were disgusted and having a pop at him. It's very much a thing of the past,

Wales r playing crap but just 5 points behind...doesn't bode we'll for the second half

We have gifted them all of their points....sloppy play.....

We should have this game won already but the usual poor discipline is costing us. You cannot give away any penalties in your half or Halfpenny will punish you. Hence they have 15 points! Stupid forwards keep going off their feet in the rucks.

Always the discipline!

What an odd penalty. The welsh bloke jumped into the tackle more than anything!

 

[Geestar]

Is this the best team we have had since winning the world cup? Very promising!

We've still got oodles of talent waiting in the wings as well. Yarde and Tuilagi, for example, will soon be pushing for places. Very exciting indeed.

I love it when England play Wales. I can't lose.

 

[LamieRobertson]

How they get the ball back on the right side when some of those tackles goes on always amazes me

Also Tom Croft

And they still dont roll around for 10mins

 

[nwgull]

Thanks for that Steve Walsh; a nice spot. I still think you're a dick though.

 

[Geestar]

Big win!

 

[Barrel of Fun]

An excellent performance bar giving away too many silly penalties.

We'll play worse and win by more points.

Difficult to pick a MotM as there were many candidates, but I would be pressed to give it to Care with Farrell hot on his heels (his kicking was near flawless).

Triple Crown!!

This England team will be even better when the World Cup comes around, we were much better than a Wales team who beat us with ease last year. Exciting times for England rugby fans. I love the way we are now moving the ball.

Lawes, Launchbury, Morgan & co were powerhouses, positive in their play and make the hard yards. The team were not overawed or psyched-out by a Wales team that made up most of the brilliant winning Lions, and who'd made tedious anti-english comments in the build up.

Stuart Lancaster is doing a great job.

Triple Crown!!

Hard to pick one player, both of these played really well,Courtney Lawes got it and that's fair enough but I thought that Brown and Burrell were outstanding also Twelvetrees had his best game for England

Is it significant that that the last time we won the triple crown was 2003?

 

[BLOCK F]

England thoroughly deserved to win,but Wales were pretty poor today.
I speak as a Scotland supporter and it was a shame about yesterday.Should have won!
