Only saw a few minutes near the start - Wales attacking less than 5m out - attempted one-handed interception knocks ball on - as clear a YC as you could wish to see, and almost certainly a penalty try. Decision? Knock-on and scrum.

From the scrum, Wales go through the phases - one boy gets isolated in the tackle, but the England jackal comes in at the side. Penalty - to England.

I quit after that.

That would be the hallmark of Byron Hayward, former Scarlets &  Wales Defence coach. Our young players have talent but there is no hope when talentless coaches are on the gravy train. If he's still in post after yet another poor campaign I'd advise everyone to take up another sport.
Wasn’t Byron part of the coaching team in our stuffing of Munster in Leinster’s B ground? Game over after 20 mins or so etc.

No one, coach/player etc, is perfect. However, Byron definitely deserves credit for his part in our best moment in rugby.

It takes money to develop our youngsters to their full potential.  Why do that when you can spend it on freebies, hotels and upgrading hospitality boxes at the Principality, much better use of our resources.Ouch

Didnt think much of the hype around our no.5. Didnt have any impact in going forward, and dont think he took one lineout against the throw. Lewis Morgan looked good when he came on, much better than the starting hooker

Terrible decision, clear shoulder to head from 2nd tackler. Apparently "rugby collision "!?

The 2 scarlets front rowers, morgan and pritchard have made a difference. Archie going well at 9. The 8 and 10 look good too
