TEAMS:
Wales: Leigh Halfpenny; Alex Cuthbert, Jonathan Davies, Jamie Roberts, George North; Dan Biggar, Rhys Webb; Gethin Jenkins, Richard Hibbard, Samson Lee, Jake Ball, Alun Wyn Jones, Dan Lydiate, Sam Warburton, Taulupe Faletau. Replacements: Scott Baldwin, Paul James, Aaron Jarvis, Luke Charteris, Justin Tipuric, Mike Phillips, Rhys Priestland, Liam Williams. England: Mike Brown; Anthony Watson, Jonathan Joseph, Luther Burrell), Jonny May; George Ford, Ben Youngs; Joe Marler, Dylan Hartley, Dan Cole, Dave Attwood, George Kruis, James Haskell, Chris Robshaw, Billy Vunipola. Replacements: Tom Youngs, Mako Vunipola, Kieran Brookes, Nick Easter, Tom Croft, Richard Wigglesworth, Danny Cipriani, Billy Twelvetrees. KICK-OFF: Friday, 20.05 PAST THREE MEETINGS: England 29 Wales 18, Six Nations, March 2014 Wales 30 England 3, Six Nations, March 2013 England 12 Wales 19, February 2012 STATS: England have not won at the Millennium Stadium since February 2011 These countries have met 127 times, England have won 57 while Wales have won 56 Only four of Wales' starting XV did not start against England in 2013 (Dan Lydiate, Rhys Webb, Samson Lee and Jake Ball) My take is the heart ruling the head and to bet England with the 4.5 start and hoping we get away to a quick start as the evil, wicked Welsh will be champing at the bit to get stuck into our brave lads. Should be a cracker of a game. |

Only way i can see Wales fackin this up is by over confidence. Everyone knows of Engerlands injury woes, but that may just play in to the Red Rose's hands. I still think the midfield of Engerlands is weak, and they will get hit hard - and them some... So overall it's The Dragons by 10 -15 for me. |

evil wicked welsh....
 slip.head ruling the heart for me, few quid on the nasty english+4.5. Ideally we (wales) win by a point. Tho 30 would be so much better. |
|
By:
Can't wait. Having a few quid on England even though they're decimated with injuries. Interesting to see Cipriani back.
Freezing cold evening, pub, rugby  |

The roof is being kept open despite the Welsh coach Warren Gatland saying he wanted it closed. I'm not sure exactly what difference it makes either way but I agree with him in so far as it's their home stadium so they should be allowed to decide.
Anyway, good luck to all with their punting tonight and as long as England cover the handicap I'll be happy enough. An England outright win would be the gravy on top though. |

I will be keeping a close eye on 'Box-kick Youngs' If he hasn't lost that rather nasty habit it will be exposed fully by the taffs..
Good luck all. And let's have a nice hard - but fair game.. |

A most pleasing start. And ol' box-kick has had hold of the ball 3 times and PASSED all 3! They listen in the end..

Wales 16 England 15. It's well and truly game on.

I'm not normally in favour of public beheadings.. but we should be allowed the occasional exception at the MS.

Good evening Ivor, hope you are in good form.

Dreadful missed penalty by us there.

Fully deserved for Engerland. Wales asleep all second half.
A truly awful game, no cohesion, no flair. Engerlands 8 were magnifico. |

Wales 16 England 21. 1 minute left

What a great passage of play then we defended the halfway line like it was the try line, so worried were we of leigh halfpenny kicking.
|
|
By:
I love it, just love it when we beat the welsh. Well done boys, absolutely smashed them in the second half, gave them a proper lesson.
|
|
By:
Yeah I have to agree g2d, a totally deserved England win and the scrum were absolutely brilliant.
|
|
By:
Last two times I have been to Cardiff Wales won both times, this is sweet indeed.
|
|
By:
Yeah they have the basis of a very good side. I still worry about the midfields lack of power, but the young lads tonight played well enough. Did you see Twelvetrees when he came on? That's what they need.
And a word for the ref... For a frog ref that was a fantastic performance.. |

Not a Steve Walsh in sight.

That's just awful to read Ivor, my thoughts are with you mate. Always you have been one of the good guys on here and we have our rugby banter but that is just terrible to read your news.

As you get older all your pillars of support, family, friends, older teachers, guides in life, uncles, kind grandparents, people you look up to, all fkn die.
I hate it!!! |
|
By:
Ivor my thoughts exactly. My eldest finished at aber now - what a story to tell there alone.
I know you sneer at hairdresser cars - I have two!! If I hide them down at the harbour do you think I will get away with it?? Before we both die !!!! |
|
By:
I just think having a pub behind the buffers at Aber station is so cool (as my girls would say)!!!
|
|
By:
Ivor, I have met moisok and his missus, we spent quite a boozy afternoon in my brothers pub and he is as sound as a pound.
