On the train now looking forward to Wales getting one over England away. Plus Wales need to Smash England today if we have any chance against NZ!!!

If you have Sky, give him login details for your SkyGo.

Technology and Dad do not compute.

If it's radio or a website link for the game he will cope.

You can get Sky Sports through Now TV box, I use the month pass (mine runs out tonight though and not renewing as only use it for the football), just get the day pass and you get 24 hrs from when it begins L.

Now TV day pass sorted - quality is excellent! Messrs Greenwood and Quinell seem excited!

Should be a good game!

You could put a ton on England and you'd still get smashed by NZ

Ford is totally shot and doing his best not to get selected, bad season for Bath, bad season for him. Confidence player with zero confidence. He's in danger of becoming what Freddie Burns once was, a 10 who could bring a more rounded re: attacking game to England then imploded bit.

Youngs pass is fking slow and generally ste.

In comparison to Ford I watched Farrell yesterday and he's adding some skill to his game in addition to his reliable boot and good defensive work.

Shame we don't have more option at scrum half and 10. I'd take Cipriani over Ford at the moment 100%.

I was trying to be a little less abrasive - but yes, you are correct. The only thing GF has going for him at the moment is that the 2 squads have been named and I can't see Jones taking a backward step on that. IIRC one of the things that GF had/had over Cips was his goal-kicking... looking that that's been exposed.

I'm not one of Fazlet's biggest fans (far from it in fact) but he does seem to be doing really well at this point.

Biggar & Wyn-Jones behavior was pretty poor IMO. The ref's decision is final - we're pro-footballers

I feel in an abrasive sort of mood today wink

I forgot about his dad getting sacked too, can't be in a good place. He's missed some sitters today from the tee just not good enough at this level. It's a proper test today but against the Aussies if you leave that many points begging the rest of your team need to have a blinder to stand a cat in hells chance.

Missed this hehe

Jone's has decided to have a look at a few players where Gatland has put what looks close to a full strength side out. England with a half decent place kicker could be out of sight.

aye - I hate to say this but with Fazlet I could see all 11 extra points on the board, even with Cips I'd have expected to see 8 or 9 extra

I suspect that Wales will be stting themselves at this point - not a full England team vs a nearly full strength Wales side.... the AB's will be licking their chops

Easy win really, even with the try that shouldn't have been a try.

Would've been an embarrassing scoreline if George Ford hadn't forgotten how to kick
