[QUOTE="MikeTheNative, post: 1018425, member: 74084"] A win is a win I suppose..... There's still a lot of issues that haven't really been addressed from the Autumn. While the scrum was good, line out is still woeful. While the defence was a bit better, it was against 14 men and Ireland who aren't the most creative with runners in attack, quite worried about Scotland next week. While Wales did reasonably soak up the attacks, it's worrying that 14 men were able to control that much of the game. Wales really struggled to impose themselves in defence, they struggled to slow down ball and get many turnover. Attack is still a mixed bag, Tipuric and Faletau do look dangerous in the wide channels, however that tight 5 isn't that good at carrying and struggle to create quick ball for Faletau and Tipruic to feed off. Wales also picked up 4 injuries which isn't too great. Amos will not really be missed to be honest, Liam Williams returning is a massive step up. Lydiate is a shame but Navidi is the more rounded player. Johnny Williams and definitely Tomos Williams is a loss though. [/QUOTE]
