Those yonder hills will be alive to the sound of music tonight, and so they should be.....They never stopped beliving in themselves dispite England being on top for most of the game.

Re: Rugby world cup
England gave em the game,after dominating the play they gave away too many silly penalties and the try was a defensive blunder it was a pick pocket win but you have got to admire the guts and determination of the Welsh despite losing key players to injury.
The decision to kick for touch instead of kicking for goal was sheer suicide in the dying minutes, a draw would have been a kick in the teeth but now they have to beat Australia to stay in.

Re: Rugby world cup
I can't believe the number of points England squandered. Giving away penalties as they did gifted it to the Welsh. However you have to admire the grit and determination of the Welsh side for the way they battled back into it.
Overall it was a great bruising battle by two teams who went all out to win. England fluffed it and dogged determination saw the Welsh through
City got beaten by Arsenal and England lost. What a great Saturday!!!!

But a very good, close match and no bonus point. If England beat Australia and Uruguay, and Australia beat Wales, do Wales go home?Whynd1 wrote:Another win for Wales.
