    Delighted with the win , but not too happy with the performance against 14men..............Why the hell do some of them insist on kicking the ball away with some aimless kicking..........somebody should tell them that the opposition cannot score if you keep the bloody ball...................At times it seems some of them lack common sense.

    Do you reckon that welsh coach is really Jacks away in disguise Vic ? Coz he’s clearly a FTT with the idiotic tactics

    Underneath that face mask he wears, he could be anybody, ...... I notice that he sits completely on his own.....seems to keep at least double the social distancing from anybody....... and he has no lap top in front of him, perhaps he does not understand them,.........a bit like me...........but he does manage to applaud when Wales score. Where the bloody hell is Jacks away anyway,....we miss him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..

    Looks like we'll all have to eat our words when Pivac lifts the Grand Slam trophy.... obviously only dependent on a red card for England, two for France and at least 2 yellows for Italy <laugh>

    We played better but it was still another bullet dodged rather than playing well.

    Massive plus: Rees-Zammit - pace, skill and maturity! Nailed on starter.

    I must admit I wouldn't be crying if Farrell saw red for a high tackle

    I wonder what the odds are? :grin:

    France deserved winners, just. Great to see their running rugby. France still have that indiscipline in them though, so I would not be surprised if they saw red against us!

    I wonder what the odds are for everyone to get a red card against us in this year’s Six Nations <laugh>

    What's "shifting"? ("like in soccer").

    Fair appraisal though, for the layman <laugh> My sister-in-law is a mad Ireland and Munster supporter but has no clue about the rules <yikes>

    I love my rugby but I do tend to record everything and watch with a delay as my machine has a 30 second skip for scrums setting :grin:

    Are we excited or filled with dread? :emoticon-0107-sweat

    Whilst the prospect of a Grand Slam is real, the reality is that without consecutive red cards we'd most likely have lost both games.

    Have the two wins filled the squad with so much confidence that we have a chance? I don't think we can rely on Pivac!

    Very often losing a player can galvanise a team - both Ireland and Scotland appeared to gain extra motivation when they went down to 14 players.

    If rumours of the players telling Pivac his game plan didn’t work, and suddenly Wales developing a maul similar to Booth’s at the O’s seems to lend credence to these rumours, I’d guess that the players themselves know what to do to beat the English.

    I’m expecting Farrell, Sinkler and Genge to be targeted for ‘winding up’ treatment <cheers>
