6N 2025, Wales v England

[sparky]

Wales so frustrating to watch. They score a try to get back in it and to send their fans into rapture, but then they concede another almost straight away.

[sparky]

And Wales concede again. They're fucked.

[sparky]

England have lots of ball carriers and a lot of power, but casual Welsh defence is making their life easy.

All but over by half time.

Wales 7 England 28.

[sparky]

England in for a 5th, but did Itoje knock that on?

[sparky]

They are checking it.

[Bones]

That's hilarious, Itoje walks away this time, knowing he fucked up.

Gets lucky.

[Victor Meldrew]

England's kicking game has been excellent. I blame Borthwick.

[sparky]

Interesting one. He touched it for sure. But did it go clearly and obviously forward?

[Bones]

Oh come on, if it's not knock on, it's at the very least accidental offside.

No.

[sparky]

Try given.

Wales 7 England 33.

Second half could get very, very ugly. England impressive, but Wales making it easy for them.

No.

Itoje tried to handle it, a player on the ground in front of him had to catch/steady it. If that's not clear enough then just go with one of the other two issues I reckon.

Not that it matters, but come on, that shouldn't have been given.

Martin Johnson pointing out the bleeding obvious to Gabby Logan. "It's tries scored that the crucial statistic there."

I'm with Nigel Owens. It didn't obvious go forward so no knock on.

[pooler fan]

Awful half from us even if England have had a few lucky breaks.
They're far too powerful all round.

Which is fine, but they get given a knock on every week lol.

[sparky]

Appalling goal line defence by Wales. The half-time replays make ugly viewing for their defence coach. Very soft tries.

[sparky]

I think England could score over 80 points here if they are ruthless. There's an opportunity to humiliate Wales and given them a record spanking at home.
