[QUOTE="MikeTheNative, post: 991560, member: 74084"] England comfortably the better side, much more than the scoreline suggested. England kicked a lot in possession and territory and it worked, complete to opposite to last year where Wales dealt with it very well. Good kicking got them into a good position then Wales were simply unable to stop them scoring points. Worryingly Wales seemed to be both narrow in defence and unable to slow the ball down, defensive tactics have been poor this 6 nations especially in the away games. In attack again Wales struggled, lack of tight ball carriers so they have to get creative to get quick ball and they seem to be struggling to get over the gain line. I didn't think kicking from hand was good either. With England's rush defence up so fast, Wales should be trying a few dinks over the top to get the England defensive line at least thinking about not rushing up to fast. This is something Anscombe did well last year and I'm surprised that they didn't try it a bit more. [/QUOTE]
