Exactly. If he weren't dead, John Candy could prop.

Why won't America start playing rugby properly? Think how huge their team could be.

No, since NH teams do have better penalty kickers. This gives NH teams effectively a 12 point start against SH.

Well exactly. Steve Hansen could pick the same team for every match. Must wonder about Welsh preparation for there to be so many injuries.

No serious person can disagree with this. The RWC has proven it.

I just want to acknowledge the efforts of the Wallabies side - I say this sincerely. They've impressed me the entire tournament, and are worthy finalists in 2015. I'm sure the side will bounce back harder than ever next year, and with a bit more experience behind them, they will be even tougher to ...

Rugby needs NFL players to take up the sport so that we have better competition from USA & Canada.

Otherwise the Aussies and AB's are gonna keep dominating this sport.

The potential for USA rugby team is huge.

That mentality damages us. England are crap and beating them is no achievement nowadays. It would if that were the mentality. Our world cup was a par but only because injuries robbed us of any chance of progression. that string of results with a largely fit squad would have represented failure. A S...

yes they LOST. I no longer care about brave, close defeats. Nor should serious Wales fans tolerate this.

These fantasies are not helping.

Not interested in this man-hating thread.

In this RWC we've learned that the NH teams are nowhere near the four SH teams. Apart from the English in 2003, NH teams have not put up a proper challenge. As a Welshman, I wish we'd wake up. Yes we have world class penalty kickers who give us a 12 point start but we always lose. I'm glad we did no...

They could bring on Maradona now

big_bruv

ten minutes left! But you're probably right.

big_bruv

Facts: Gatland has a poor record against SH. Our defeats are only close as SH kickers miss out on 12-15 points against us.

? It was a great game, but did wales not choke? [/quote]

Yes we did. Perhaps we should have kicked a penalty early in the sin bin then go for the try.

big_bruv

I'm gutted. Such a missed opportunity. Why not even take a drop goal then get the try after?

Sour grapes. Show some respect.

I agree 100%.

Lefties are offended by everything, including themselves. So just ignore them.

I don't see how a draw was great for England? They were playing at Twickers for heavens sake, against us Welsh.

big_bruv

Potential world champions would go to touch. End of conversation.

big_bruv

It was a bad decision because it was a poor percentage play when scoring zero points was a disaster and scoring 3 points was almost as good as scoring 5/7 points, although without the congratulatory, but otherwise meaningless, headlines. Seriously, how can an English captain at Twickers go for 3 po...

big_bruv

Why can't Europe get back to being nations, sigh.

big_bruv

The question is, why couldn't you score from a lineout in the corner? Remember, you hammered Wales's lineout in the first half.

big_bruv

My question remains - which Royals support other nations of the 'commonwealth'?

big_bruv

I can't believe you're arguing for a 'possible' 3 point, which would have only got you a draw. Don't you want your team to go for the win?

big_bruv

You're only saying bad decision because England failed to score from the lineout, as Wales pushed them out. That was a bad lineout.

big_bruv

As far as I'm concerned it is an English monarchy that has Wales and Scotland as its territories due to historical reasons. The Royals are English, aren't they?

I seem to recall that he was, like Harry, a prominent England supporter in 2003, but when he became patron of the WRFU, he had to start showing support for Wales, as future prince of Wales and all that. Seems fair enough. This is why I say I feel sorry for these guys. They are English. But William ...

Especially me. Except when one annoys me.

No. He made a good decision. What's the point of a draw? A draw assumes the kicker would have nailed a penalty from the touchline anyway.
