It looks like he might be too hot to wear it. Poor lads sweating a bit out there.

Oh good, Liam Williams - he is in my fantasy team.

His come on in leaps and bounds since he moved to Sarries.

24C and 74% humidity at present. Cannot see if the roof has been shut - which coudl actually make it worse.

Pardon?

He has, matured him and made him a better player.

Apparently the roofs been broken for years

He has most definitely improved at Sarries, but he was pretty damned good when he joined them.

Whatever..! He’s been injured or out of position most of the time.

Why the bitterness and abrupt comments?

seems like you are gunning for me Mae?

So about Georgia joining the six nations....?

I only found out because there was an article about it the other day when the rain was forecast. Obviously as Georgia are famed for their world class scrum. The journalist was noting that with rain and obvious increased likelihood of knocking the ball forward that the match could be a scrum-fest that Georgia would win.

Lol good one, I think they might have to wait a bit longer, but then again are they any worse than Italy?

Per the radio commentary the stadium owners can't afford to get it fixed.

Can't wait for them to move to the shoe free room on ITV.

Yes that’s correct. I read that too.

Is Anscombe from the posh part of Cardiff?

Good solid performance from Wales as expected.

Georgia, dreadful just dreadful. was expecting a little bit more from them in the forwards to be honest.


We have switched off TightHERSH and BamBam until the game is over so the welsh can enjoy the game in peace

MikeyD no need to interact

Most of your comments are posted with the intent of antagonising, and both the mods in here have said something. If I were you I'd just listen.

Oh the irony

Thats better.

Think thats a try to be fair.

Thats what I was expecting from Georgia, 1 for the forwards.

What was the previous penalty for, it seems Wales legally stopped it.

Williams has improved a lot since the Lions tour where he was shall we say pretty poor under the high ball but always a threat with ball in hand, he's now become the most complete full back in the NH for me.

I would say Williams has improved, now he is playing for Wales in his favoured position.

Be interesting to see how our scrum goes, now Lewis is on.

Penalty try that. Hard to see how that's stopping before the line, without the illegal pull down.

There are defenders around, they're not engaged into the maul.

Very poor passages of play from Wales. AWJ and North don't look like they're trying.

And this contributes to the thread how? Not amusing and seems intended only to WUM. Take this as a final warning.

I’d be happy to get the subs on quick smart

Is the TMO going to call that challenge then?

That looks like a clear block on Liam Williams. Not sure it comes under the remit of what the TMO can call back though, as Williams never managed to get in the air. Bad miss by on pitch officials  though.

It’s all a bit scrappy now. I guess a conscious effort to avoid injury but the goal is achieved a BP win

Jake Balls has his tusks trimmed

Don't need to show anything else. Just need to move the Georgians around now and then we should score a couple more in the last 15.

It was a really strong first 20 - after that similarish to England v Tonga to be honest.

Replacement SH for Georgia looks lively

LondonTiger wrote:Replacement SH for Georgia looks lively

Yeah great work at the line out there.

Wales have emptied the bench now.. except for Patchell

Georgia coudl develop into a decent side, but need competition with the better teams more often.

It’s still the first game there’s still a lot of rugby ahead in this tournament

Exactly they would benefit from playing on the six Nations Championship

Lovely chip by North

I love how excited front rows get when they win a scrum penalty. The Georgian TH did drive in and a clear penalty, which was stupid as the Welsh LH was already buckling.

Tomos Williams did look in front of the kicker there.

The size on that Georgian tighthead 18 he is huge

Not as big as Tameifina yesterday. That boy is huge (and fat)

Great dart from the replacement SH. Some good offloads and a well worked try.
