RWC warmup - England v Wales
-
@MiketheSnow Listening to the Rugby Podcast and Hamilton and Goode were frothing over the balance of the Welsh back row in last weeks game and talking about Tshuinza initially felt he was a bit quiet but then Hamiltaon asked whether that was the case or was it just that he seemed quiet compared to the other two?

Quiet IMHO
He's going to have to do something really special to get a look in

Taine Plumtree - from the Wellington bench to starting at Twickers in the 8 Jersey once worn by the great Mervyn Davies.
His form dropped off in 2022
The guy that was on the bench for Wellington was very different from the guy who was pushing Tom Robinson for a spot in the Blues earlier in the year
Seems to be back to his early Blues form now

That's England's best team with the exception of Curry
Let's see how it goes then
-
If we don't win this one, where the hell do we go?
-
Jonny Hill on the bench despite not being in the squad. I'm guessing neither Chessum nor Ribbans is fit and that Lawes is not going to play lock ever again.

That's a real left field selection and/or those boys won't make it and Hill is battled hardened

6-0 to England at halftime
Garland will be far happier than Borthwick
MOTM so far, the Georgian ref
Just one dubious call right at the end of the half when he awarded a penalty to Wales then to England when Wales was still on advantage
Amazing rate of improvement since his first test last year

No just me then. It was truly weird reffing.

And to compound it the YC to Reffell was bullshit

One for the team

Welsh lineout a bit shit.
Edit: Both teams look a bit shit across the field.

I get that if it was a penalty
But it was a legal turnover
-
Looks like England will have 3 in the bin
-
About time
Borthwick is in the shit
