What a cracking match this evening. Well played England. Wales unlucky. I thought both defences were immense. It'll take a very good team to beat England at present. Is that 15 or 16 on the spin?

Wales helped massively by a poor refereeing performance in their favour. Continuos offsides and infringements at the breakdown went unpunished plus a clear yellow for morriarty that was ignored for a tackle on Farrell that was so late it hasnt happened yet. Still class won out in the end. Btw if the roof is no big deal, why does the principality make such a fuss of it every match?

England stronger at the end than Wales in an excellent game. That's the thing about England there is so much sport you can always find England winning something.

Nice to see such sportsmanship is alive and kicking. t***.

I don't get it about the roof who cares if its open or shut. Great atmosphere notwithstanding looked like a win for Wales but England just had an extra bit of 'nous' in the last few minutes.

Wales care if its closed. They ask before every six nations if it can be closed for every home game, which has so far been rejected every year by the committee. Therefore they have to go by a game to game basis, asking each team if they can play with the roof closed. Both teams have to agree to it being closed. If it has no effect why the desperation to have it closed?

Being half English and half Welsh all I can say is that was a fantastic game of rugby. Wales had plenty of chances to win but England were clinical on capitalising on two defensive errors by Wales. 1st try...two Welsh players called the guard leaving a gaping hole through the middle of the ruck. 2nd try was a ridiculous decision not to kick to touch leaving the defence 50m to push up whilst closing any gaps. Wales were much better at the breakdown and always have players getting in the defences faces spoiling the quick ball. England need to do the same. England are great at set plays. Worrying lack of turnovers should be a concern. England definitely have at least the second best team in the world. Especially as we were missing the Pacific islanders. Wales are a team in transition but there are lots of positive for the future.

Even the welsh commentator that we are cursed with on the bbc claimed morriartys tackle was a magnificent hit, maybe a touch late. Eddie Buttler. t***. England won that despite not playing brilliantly and against a poor refereeing performance that favoured the home team. As for being half English whats the crack about the south sea islanders? "Toby" faletau? Where was George North born? Never thought i'd say this but ITVs coverage is a million miles in front of the beebs and much more neutral.

My perception that both teams played well and it was a cracking match. I think that is a fair description and gives credit to both sides. Something I fear you are incapable of.
