just a simple question really,can we or can't we beat england at twickers this saturday?i believe wales can edge it,at the end of the day ,there's nothing to frightening in that england team in my opinion.that welsh back division has to start clicking however.i think its vital that wales get their world cup warm ups off to a great start.thoughts please?

I know I sound a bit 'if only'...bit I just think this Welsh front row is bench material at best (and what's in their slots on the bench is not really bringing any impact). England away is a tough venue regardless of players available , I fear it will be a (possibly very) comfortable win for England by 20-25pts.

Difficult as always to win at Twickenham but I'm quite confident we'll get a win on Saturday. The pack must achieve parity though and Bennett hit his man in the line out.

bennett isn't the 1st,and he'll be by no ways isn't going to be the last welsh hooker who can't find his man in the lineout.smiler isn't exactly 100% on his own throw ins is he?

Wasn't there a stat from either the beginning of last season or the season before about Ken Owens, not missing his jumper in the lineout on something like 17-18 consecutive throws??

I agree with Wil I think the Welsh front row looks very week, I think England will win by 20 points but I hope I am wrong.

As always itll depend on gatlands gameplan. If Wales run at the english from the very start as Ireland did in the 6 nations, then who knows?, but if we get involved in an armwrestle then weve no chance.

Matt Stevens is a class act but as far as I'm concerned the jury is out on the other two. The English midfield might find Stevo's game management a bit of a worry. Both have been known to turn in the style of the Q.E. II and there's no one better at exploiting that with the dink of the top!!! Foxy needs a big game- and he'll provide!!

One for JW, Maldwyn and Rap, decent English back row lads. Very combative at the breakdown?
