Get outplayed for 65 minutes and this is what happens. Well played England fully deserved win but Gatland please learn the last 10-15 showed what is possible. I did have a Palace - Wales with the 6 point handicap as a double so my whole weekend isn't in the poo.

Until Youngs and Ford handed Biggar that try I honestly thought it was going to be a to nil result. What the hell happened to us after Dan Cole went off was worrying. At least it turned into a spectacle I suppose, but I'd rather we'd been a bit more comfortable!
Optimistic as ever |

I had that feeling as well, taking nothing away from England, who I thought played very well and showed some lovely skills, but we were woeful until the last 10-15 minutes. Capture that spirit and style of play and something good can come from the result for Wales.

Once you had a sniff of it you were a different team. Let's hope that team turns up from the start against New Zealand in the summer.

I'd like to see England beat France as I think you have improved through the competition and have been the best side.

I blame my Mrs for Wales comeback.... she's a jinx and normally banned from my TV room if Palace are playing, or England at any sport. At 22-0 she sat down after her shower and hair styling etc (we were going to a friends house for dinner later) and I forgot the effect she has..... After the 3rd try I told her to take the dog for a walk and we held on for victory. Seriously, I've been watching cricket all day before now and as she pulls up on the drive, our wickets start tumbling - she's a lovely lovely lady but a fcuking Jonah.... LOL

Until Cole went off there was only one team in it. It would appear wales can only play against 14 men, as when it was an even contest,, it was no contest.

very strange performance from wales as they were not lacking confidence going to Twickenham, A team of wales quality should of got some points on the board in the first half. if it was planned to soak up pressure and comeback from behind it was a foolish tactic as too many points were shipped 1st half and England were rampant for 60 minutes of the game and made wales look like a 3rd tier nation.

I don't think that was the plan. Reading what Gatland has said it seems he was shocked how lethargic and poor we were in the first half. He was thinking of making subs after 25 mins!!!
