We're up & running in Cardiff. I expect this to be a great contest.

Wonder if england will get a red card in this match now too keep the welsh streak going

Great seeing Itoje get penalised but the English offline is continuously offside, every single time.

almostover · 27-02-2021 5:51pm

Itoje with 2 penalties already. How he avoids yellow cards is beyond me. Great player but a penalty machine.

dublinman1990 · 27-02-2021 5:52pm

Wales 3 England 0

really thought England had been poor so far and wales well I guess they are hoping for a red card.
england gifted wales 3 points there

dublinman1990 · 27-02-2021 5:53pm

That was a close call from LW.

[Deleted User] · 27-02-2021 5:53pm

Itoje some athlete all the same.

Quantum Baloney · 27-02-2021 5:54pm

bit more physical than the last game!

PTH2009 · 27-02-2021 5:57pm

Was going to ask why Eddie Jones was singing GSTQ but remembered Australia is a commonwealth country

Its scary to think George North is only 28. Have a feeling this could be a draw

3 penalties after 13 minutes, if it was a drinking game you'd be p*ssed by HT

AdamD · 27-02-2021 6:01pm

Three pens against Itoje already, surely should get a warning.

RugbyLover123 · 27-02-2021 6:02pm

Surely there should be a law brought in about 1 players committing a certain amount of penalties regardless of what they are is a yellow? 3 against Itoje now inside 14 mins.

Josh adams is on the board for Wales.

Sympathy for farrell me hole

ednwireland · 27-02-2021 6:05pm

oops

jammiedodgers · 27-02-2021 6:05pm

you love to see it

Great heads up stuff - regardless of the questionable refereeing decision

Larbre34 · 27-02-2021 6:06pm

Forget Farrell. If that happened against Ireland we'd be tearing down the wallpaper.

Not a sporting situation I would say.

Interested Observer · 27-02-2021 6:06pm

Not sure about that tbh.

Podge_irl · 27-02-2021 6:06pm

That is poor form from the ref.

aloooof · 27-02-2021 6:06pm

I' m not a massive Farrell fan, but he had a point there...

The penalty itself was very very soft.

Clegg · 27-02-2021 6:07pm

Itoje is playing similar to 2018 where England had their mini meltdown. He plays on the bleeding edge of legality and if he's the slightest bit off his game he concedes truck loads of penalties.

Shelby Foote · 27-02-2021 6:07pm

Wales having a lucky campaign so far

RugbyLover123 · 27-02-2021 6:07pm

England or not that is very poor from the ref

KH25 · 27-02-2021 6:07pm

That’s baffling from the ref.

We did something like that against South Africa once iirc.

It was, but how is it that these decisions always, always, always, always seem to go in Wales' direction down the years?

It's clearly not some magical bias and likely is just smarts and knowing how to play the ref, but going in to any game you're almost guaranteed to see Wales benefit from refereeing calls far more than their opposition.

[Deleted User] · 27-02-2021 6:08pm

Les francais n'aiment pas les anglais.

bilston · 27-02-2021 6:08pm

Terrible from the referee. Fair enough he says time on, but he has to allow England time to reset.

Absolute nonsesne

Wales vs England
