Scotland Good. Wales Shite
Once Scotland took control of breakdown and had more attacking opportunities it was one way traffic .Now for England!
2 weeks in a row Wales have lost the 2nd half. Has their much publicised fitness no longer an edge.
Good match. Scotland look good. Am I the only one who finds Webb and Biggars antics tiresome and irritating. STFU.
I think we should cut out their tounges and gangbang them to teach them a lesson for their talking back and antics.
Totally agree!! They should be taken aside and spoken too. I can’t believe the coaches would tolerate it if they were refereeing, or if the opposition kept doing it. It is not in the spirit of the game and should be penalised!!!!
I miss the days when the referee would either reverse the decision or march a team back 10 meters for back talk like that.
Went to the gardens at the weekend and at one point the ref marched Worcester back 20m made me smile
Well done Scotland!
Is it just me or is Biggar the most whiney, irritating player in world rugby?
Rhys Webb runs him close
No it’s not just you Pablito. His appeal to the ref to get a penalty when Visser barely brushed against him was pathetic. There are quite a few of this current Welsh squad who seem to think that they know better than the ref though. Webb is to the forefront, but Warburton is nearly as bad. I have always enjoyed watching Wales get beaten and whinging about it but watching the current bunch of moaners it gives me particular pleasure.
Completely agree re Biggar and Webb. Football antics that should not be tolerated on a rugby pitch. In fact I thought that international refs had been given guidance this season to crack down on back talk? Certainly don’t seem to be following up on it.
I refer you to Lee Dickson. He’s held that title for a while.
Amen to that JK!!!! Seriously annoying whinging little shite! I know scrum halves are supposed to be a bit niggly, but the way he shouts instructions to referees assistants is totally unprofessional.
Brilliant from Scotland. I as a Wales fan enjoyed them teaching us a lesson in how to finish your opportunities and a what a good selection does for your team. John Barclay who joined Scarlets after being ridiculously overlooked in Scotland for years provided he’s a class act and he deserves his place in history as a winning captain debutant.
Howley is beyond help. Bringing on one trick pony Jamie Roberts for skills galore Scott Williams when your plenty of points down is idiotic. Chucking Sam Davies in when the games long gone and hoping for a miracle is detrimental to the young lads development.
Without the endless knock ons and self inflicted turnovers in attack Wales could’ve kept it tight but it really would’ve been papering over the cracks.
Wales desperately need a new coaching team with new ideas for the next generation of players or we face a decade of mediocrity.
Biggar tool it a step too far in this game and disrupted his own team. Confusing locking decisions and over ruling the captain. The guy needs dropping for a bit but there is no one to cover for him
What about Sam Davies? Pretty sure he has covered pretty well for him when, eventually, required?
Wales have plenty of talent, they just don’t have the coaching team to use it
Think that game has put another nail in the coffin of Lions hope for AWJ, Biggar, J Davies, North and Ha’penny.
opportunity to bring the scores level with ~10 minutes to go and AWJ chooses to kick to the corner and comes away with nothing. It’s a very similar decision as Robshaw against Wales in the RWC. I really hope he doesn’t get picked as Lions captain, I feel this proved he’s just not a capable of decision making under pressure
Gatland will still take them because they did the job four years ago.
I really hope so. Wales have contributed enough to the Lions over the last 8 years, and i’m really hoping none of the coaching staff come back afterwards.
I’d be delighted if no Welsh players toured. Give them all an extended break, as well as the quite obvious problem that none of them are no.1 in their position.
in fairness it it was actually a pretty good performance from J.Davies made some good break and was at the heart of most good things coming from the welsh backline. The other 4 thou were pretty dire
Russell redeemed himself and proved me wrong. His goal kicking was excellent and he has clearly learned from his mistakes. Despite that he made a few silly kicks down the field and conceded a couple of stupid penalties which annoyed me quite a bit, but on the most part he was brilliant. Despite that I have to give Tim Visser MOTM. A try, an assist, great takes, great runs. He was brilliant and showing why he should always be in the team.
Howley is a total joke and the sooner he is got rid of the better. He does not have a clue and has been appt as Lions Attack Coach. How on earth is that justified after what we have seen in the AI and after 60% of the 6n games? As usual the pro Cardiff WRU has let Wales and their dans down yet again
