Egg chasing today

[aberllefenni]

Still no mention of the rugby. Are we not feeling that confident?

[Beach Hut]

Wales will be too strong for us, shame the KO is 16:00 hrs

 

[Trigger]

Wales will win by at least 10 points.

 

[Hillian1]

Wales will win by at least 10 points.

I'm not so sure, Twickers is not a happy hunting ground for us Welshies. On paper it's a comfortable win but it will be close.

 

[The Fifth Column]

Who's playing?

 

[Icy Gull]

I'm happy for us to spend a year or two rebuilding, if we get a few thrashings along the way oh well. We have been playing "old guard" shit for way too long now, it's good to see fresh blood getting a go. Shame a football match is gonna get in the way of watching.

I expect us to lose quite heavily, if we run them close then we are gelling quicker than I would have expected, Wales are good.

Today will be my worst nightmare if (when) England lose!!! I have already had me daughter (born in wales) ringing me up an taking the piss!! least alone alot if our friends are welsh....if england do win i will cry with laughter sooooooooooooooo much........sadly i think i will just be crying

 

[Glawstergull]

I'm not confident, if Wales click we could be thumped.Don't think we have agame plan to beat them well but could sneek it. Watching the game at Kingsholm and then watch Glaws beat Harlequeens.An Albion 3-0 will finish the day off nicely.
I might have a Beer or three.

Just watching the Irish game. Botes of Italy must be the worst kicker in the history of international rugby.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

I have a feeling in my aching bones that it is going to be a vintage performance by England and a crackerjack of a contest (It has to happen sooner or later, right?).

I had a vintage car once. The engine was f***ed and although it was ok turning over you couldn't get it to run no matter what...............................

I got really pissed off with this last night, the Welsh media trying to underplay their superiority over us and you know its because they want to play the 'take that you arrogant English' after they've won......No, sorry YOU are the bloody favourites, you are not the down trodden little country, you should bloody well win.

I hate this time of year, you can't win!

I admire your optimism, but this Welsh side at a bit special. Opening 5 minutes and the Welsh could have scored two tries.

 

[TheBlueAndWhiteStrips]

Great game so far, Wales had the first 20 minutes but England back in this game. Could have had a try but for a good tackle.

 

[footychick]

Oh well. It'll please the MIL/FIL though.
England lost 12-19.

 

[TheBlueAndWhiteStrips]

Good game, England much improved from the last two games.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Good game, England much improved from the last two games.

My optimism was partially misguided!

Indeed. Certainly in the right direction.

I thought Dickson was abysmal. So slow to spread it our and/or make a decision and the Welsh had an easy job closing us down. I would not have put money on Lawes being the man to hand over the ball so weakly. Onwards and hopefully upwards.

THIS!!! God i hated yesterday!!

 

[Hillian1]

THIS!!! God i hated yesterday!!

I didn't, Brighton win 3-0, am told on the train that England are winning 12-9 and it's got just a few minutes left and when I get home Wales have won 12-19.

Happy days.
