[QUOTE="Thingimubob, post: 689820, member: 20956"] That was one of the most frustrating games of rugby I have ever watched. Wales were by far the better team but just couldn't capitalize. Every time we started building/made a break, someone would drop the damn ball. Felt we played into Fiji's hands by letting the game get as loose as it did. Should have calmed things down and pinged for the corner as soon as it started getting scrappy. If this was the world cup game, I'd be relieved at the win, but damn disappointed not to get 4 tries. Should the two disallowed tries have been given? Couldn't really tell from the stands, and I haven't watched any highlights yet. Guy sat next to me was sure that Lydiate had grounded the ball from the maul? I was a bit baffled at the ref disallowing Faletau's one too, seemed to me like if anything it was a slight knock on, rather than Liam Williams being held? Interesting point though, we haven't kicked a penalty in 2 games, when was the last time that happened?! I don;t think we have even elected to go for the posts at any stage this AI's either? Assuming that has something to do with Priestland being pretty terrible at it. One of many reasons I'm praying for Biggar to be fit next week... [/QUOTE]
