Wow 16-42 will be first Wales U20 win on English soil, 76 mins gone (Giles with an intercept try).

Ugh. Feel like crap. About to haul my ass to Twickers for another disappointment.

Enjoy the game, I don't know which way it's gonna go, but let's have no reffing controversy and a decent game win or lose.

Yeah, I do hope Wales come and scrum legally.

Their tatics are just ruining the game as a spectacle.

koneguitarist

I agree, we are not worthy of playing the saviours of attacking rugby in the spiritual home of the game. All I hope is we do not disgrace ourselves,,,,,,, oh and Roberts to run straight over the top of Farrell to wipe that spoilt child look off his face, and Liam Williams to discuss how foul play should really be done with Mike "I'm angry" Brown.

Illegal scrummaging is one of those irregular verb constructions isn't it?

Marler is crafty
Joubert is incompetent
Gethin is a cheat and should be prosecuted under World Rugby Law 20.3.

Somebody did not have a good nights sleep! Marler is not crafty, it's just that the white lines on the field are not distinguished by his one eye!

Gethins out injured. Interesting to see the first scrums, think you'll get the edge of the decisions, what with 70,000 scrum experts there today. God I hope we win.

Someone has been watching too much Yes (Prime) Minister

Focuses on the Wales v England game all week, not even seem the teams for the Ireland v Italy. Sure Ireland will do them, hopefully will see some Italian resistance that lasts 80mins.

lloyd

Is the Irish game not on first? Jesus...

tbm

I've brought the young fella swimming while the Ireland game is on so I can relax and watch the EngWal game later. It'll be a doozy!!!

eSully

I'm in the park with the kids. Getting Ireland updates on the phone. I had a choice which game to watch. Wales England all the way

lloyd

Ireland doing enough, not much sparkle but Italy defence not very strong. Gave you the first try on a plate, second came from some pressure. Parisse just hit Sexton late, 15-3. Should be a comfortable win.

eSully

Ireland for all our injuries and issues weren't that far off the pace in the other games. Should be a decent win. Might catch the last 20

Great try!

Toner, could quite easily have been carded then.

What did he do?

very poor reffing so far.

Just came flying into a maul, smashing into full back, no need for it at all.
