Adams is not as good as he once was 
In 1972, Roy Bergiers scored that try and said "that was for you lofty"

Wales halfbacks awful.  The ruck speed with Ireland is far quicker, JGP gets the ball away in less than a second whilst Tomos Williams is taking at 3 seconds every ruck.  Edwards isn’t a patch on Sam at 10, his kicking from hand is poor and he’s playing too deep to worry the Irish defence

I must say, ITV’s director is doing an awful job. Too many pointless ultra slow-mo of head shots whilst things are going on on the pitch. For example, missing Tomos’ yellow card, a quick kick-off etc. Very poor.

We're going nowhere with Sherratt - the second playmaker at 12 is dross when your pack is so underpowered. James to 12 where he will excel with Hennessy/ Roberts/Grady outside him. Tomos has been disappointing but there is nobody else and blaming the 10 because he doesn't play for Scarlets/Ospreys/Cardiff (delete as applicable to your team) when the pack is struggling is just plain daft. 

There is more passion now but such a long way back.

You are right, there is finally some passion but passion won’t win you international matches alone.
The 9-12 axis just isn’t working, we desperately need Sam back at 10 and to move Eddie to 12.
How on earth was Dan Edwards one of the candidates for MOTM, were the pundits / sponsors watching a different game to the rest of us?

Did no one else see the forward pass on the lead up to their last try so obvious it’s ridiculous. Would have meant no try and no yellow card. 
Great effort by team Mann was indeed man of the match outstanding fair play 
She asks why i still can't answer. I guess its in the blood.

The combinations of forwards has improved and they all gave it 100% against Ireland - some stupendous defending/tackling. The second row combination of Carter/Jenkins is much more effective, and I thoughyt Carter had a really good game. The front row is the best we've got but the back row still isn't right because we need a bigger 6 (Wainwright of course but who plays 8?) to carry (like Conan or Doris). Mann for all his dog is too small. Botham didn't look like winning a turnover, Cracknell is just too ponderous and I just don't think Mcleod brings enough to be an international. Plumtree is a card machine. We miss Jac of course. The best I can see going forward woud be  a fit Tshiunza, Jac and Wainwright at 6,7,8. FWIW.

Tshiunza certainly is a physical specimen. But that abrasive go forward aggression I've never seen from him. Jac Morgan whilst physically smaller beats him hands down on that score.
