I'll need to see a few replays as I'll be seeing doubleAnother crazy suggestion, people at least watch one replay before posting claiming 'that should be a red card' or 'ref got it wrong'

For the first time ever, I think I agree with you. (I know, I'm as appalled as you are. Don't tell anyone. ) For the first time I can remember, I don't feel too bothered about us losing a game. It's not just that it should bring about changes as you say, but also the ***le will be gone and hopefully the team can then loosen up for the final two games. They've just seemed so uptight since the WC final, maybe because they've been constant favourites and England never seem to respond well to that? It would be nice to see them playing with a smile on their faces again, like they were in 2019.In a perverse kind of way I almost want us to lose this. We need change and if that's what it takes to bring it about, so be it.
talking of kicking I thought Wales kicking just gave the ball away to the opposition, now I know this is a so called tactic but, Scotland asked so many questions with their kicking game, wont England do the same, I just hope Wales play a better kicking game I have also learned that Ellis Jenkins has returned to playing hope all goes well for him as we really need a 7 of his calibre, I just hope his come back goes without incident.Another crazy suggestion, people at least watch one replay before posting claiming 'that should be a red card' or 'ref got it wrong'
I'm still unsure how crap/good Wales even are. They are definitely better than they were last Autumn but have been rather inconsistent and have too long spells where the opposition is controlling possession and territory. Will England actually try play a little? Or just kick a lot?
I would have said the same regarding Pivac before the Scotland game, but there was a glimmer of hope, our defence is much better,, Falutau has regained some form our front row have stood up well and we have some backs that will punish you given the opportunity, so a glimmerFor the first time ever, I think I agree with you.

Also, a loss by England will ensure Pivac keeps his job, and Wales can continue looking confused in all areas for years to come...
Having said all that, this time last year England went into round 3 having played terrible in the opener and lost it, albeit getting a losing bonus point, then put together an unspectacular win to follow it up. They were going into a match against an Ireland team that had won their first two games of the tournament, and everyone was complaining that Lawes should not be picked again at 6 and Eddie had clearly lost the plot. Lawes proceeded to get MOTM as England tonked Ireland with a dominant performance. So if history repeats itself, I will deny this post was ever written.
not sure if Ellis will make this tourney, at all , the kicking by wales improved when Davies and Biggar went off , well to me it looked like that .talking of kicking I thought Wales kicking just gave the ball away to the opposition, now I know this is a so called tactic but, Scotland asked so many questions with their kicking game, wont England do the same, I just hope Wales play a better kicking game I have also learned that Ellis Jenkins has returned to playing hope all goes well for him as we really need a 7 of his calibre, I just hope his come back goes without incident.

I think Davies is too slow around the breakdown as for bigger what you see is what you have, but definitely there was an improvement overall when the two half backs were replaced. but I'm not sure if they would be good enough to start.not sure if Ellis will make this tourney, at all , the kicking by wales improved when Davies and Biggar went off , well to me it looked like that .
