Only watched the first 25 mins as had to go out but from the bit I saw FairPlay , Wales were up for it n England were shit end of, no arguments, well done Wales.
I saw one chap wearing a jumper with a print of the welsh flag on after wales put one of their conversions over and turned off. The one thing i dont like about rugby is the crowd in general, if something happens and they show the crowd, they look like they dont have a clue whats going on, maybe because they are so pissed up.....But still. Why pay the high prices to go in if you're gonna chat away to the person next to you.

I love how the commentators build up the atmosphere, but when they actually zoom into the crowd, its usually an indeterminate crowd with one woman with a pink cowboy hat pissed up.

I went to see Wales play Australia a few years back and couldn't understand why so little attention was being paid to the game itself. Everyone was fucking off to the concourse to buy beer or taking pictures of themselves. Very strange.
International egg in Wales is a day out, no one cares about the rugby. The domestic game is dying and 90% of those there on Saturday have put away their stupdi daffodil hats or sparkly pink cowboy hats until the Autumn games.
Rugby being the national sport of Wales is a myth.
