[QUOTE="Not Eddie Jones, post: 990221, member: 81025"] The Welsh dominated rugby for a couple of decades from the mid-60s to mid-80s, but since that heyday, Wales have won just 3 of their last 20 visits to Twickers. Admittedly those wins were all under Gatland, but even taking into account the Gatland era only, Wales have won only 3 out of 10 at Twickers, so I wouldn't be exactly 'loving it' if I was Welsh, especially as they've lost the last 4 in a row (i.e. since Eddie took over). As for the other way around, they've won 9 of 18 in Cardiff over the same period, which is better, but probably more a plus for England (ie getting 50% wins away from home). In the Gatland era it's a bit better for Wales in Cardiff, having won 5 out of 8, bolstered by the 2 wins there in 2019, but that's still a pretty weak return for home matches. I've just jinxed us for the Wales game, haven't I? :( [/QUOTE]
