| This approaching England rugby game 16:52 - Nov 24 with 870 views | onehunglow | Not all of us are anti rugby or eggchasers,peanut huggers of wife beaters so allow me to start a thread of what will be a big game for our national team and a possible Armageddon. England the best team in world right now,oozing quality and confidence with an obnoxious ,canny coach and a truly ,gobby pie eating captain who nevertheless is a class player. We are on the floor but this fixture can start a renaissance.I'm not hopeful but let's see. Hung's 15 to start 15.Sanjay.We will need to go forward rather go around England and he can do this. Anything that 1/2p kicking the ball to the likes of jonny May. Adams. Has May to face but he has enough in his tank to take him on Johnny Williams. Big lump and should be given another go a Foxy obviously buggered Nick Tomkins..A better player than we've seen of late and he will know all about these English backs.Good luck son Biggar.. a warrior who can and must get into Farrell Lloyd Williams.. Webb is nowhere near the player he was and this lad has a swift pass.Slow ball will be lethal for us. Lee Elias Jones...Best front row we have AWJ THE game for the old warhorse to get us back on track Ball.Big lump who does the dirty work but in Itoje he faces the best 2nd row in the world IMO- a fantastic player and a real athlete. Navidi -even if 70 % fit. Play him for 60 mins.A vital player Falatau..Still nowhere near what he was.Hopefully a big game coming up Tips. I think he'll be fit enough to play. If not Wainwright comes in. Good luck chaps |  |

I really dont think Tipuric should play. He should be out for weeks. I dont disagree with your 14 but think we will need a winger as well. I would play Watkin instead of Tomkins. |  | |  |

Really someone who has had concussion should be out for 3 weeks. I really cant see Tipuric playing although he comes from tough stock. His Dad Andy was a tough player in his day and grandfather Mike came over after the war from Yugoslavia and worked in the mines for years. |  | |  |

I remember reading about that but if he really has recovered then he should play. That said,he might well not be risked. In that case the young bloods will have to front up to these english beasts. |  |

| This approaching England rugby game on 12:39 - Nov 25 with 713 views | Catullus | The rules say after a concussion you can't train or play for 3 weeks so Tipuric is out. Whatever the team is I honestly expect a good pounding, a heavy defeat. |  |

It'd be the other way around here, wifey would be going berserk and swearing at the tv....she's a rugby hooligan! |  |

| This approaching England rugby game on 11:14 - Nov 27 with 621 views | Joe_bradshaw | The team looks to me to have been selected with a longer term in mind than trying to win this game. Pivac should have done this earlier of course, he has been trying to change the way we play whilst using the same players as Gatland who had a completely different approach. Pivac should have done this from game one and not when he’s under pressure to produce results. He should have used the slack given to a new coach by explaining his strategy and picking players to suit from the outset. I am not convinced that Pivac’s style is suited to international rugby in any case. Expansive, high risk rugby rarely works and is normally only utilised when teams have earned the right by winning the arm wrestle and are three scores or more to the good. The Scarlets had a fantastic season a couple of years ago and some of the rugby was breathtaking and this got him the gig. The following season was a calamity due to teams working the Scarlets out and, to be fair, a horrific injury list. Expect a pounding from them tomorrow. They’re a machine at the moment. |  |

lol, trust the wife has the hatches battened securely . Black Friday weekend, lets hope your saturday isn't as black as you fear, and more importantly your black Sunday doesn't transpire. Mind you it's all been bleak and dark since Pivac. Uninspiring and contrast is stark to Gats. A drizzly day in Llanelli under the lights against the mighty saes - it's what we all miss |  |

Yep, and was quick to penalise our scrum for that pen. We're still in this but need to up the zip and tempo (familiar story?), match their tenacity in the collisions and get the rub of the green (and ref) that they seem to always get. Decent outing and entertaining. Glimmers of improvement ? |  |

Not really. Scrums lost,lines our too and scrum halves who only kick the ball back to the opposition to then run the ball straight back and win a scrum from which they gain a penalty upon which they get a shot at goal. Predictable garbage As for Elias,w what a disgraceful non perfomance. International footballer myarse England did us a favour and took the pyss |  |
