I think it will be a close game with less than 1 score between the sides. I don't think Wales were in top form during the 6N but did learn to grind out a win which had previously been missing. They can also be slow starters in a test match which has seen them slip up many a time. I expect them...

Can't say I am that positive about Wales taking this. Priestland needs to find some form again and will have to see what centre partnership we have. Upfront we should be able to create a platform even missing a few first choicers. It's a massive game first up. I do think there is more...

I can't even think about us (Wales) winning the series..... doesn't seem natural to be going on a tour like this and in the reckoning for winning it. Only a few injuries so far for Wales so looking okay. Hope Oz don't pick up anymore. Beck as cover for Jamie Roberts is looking in good shape and...

How did you enjoy the Munster ruining party PP? That must have hurt.

Looking forward to this series. From a Welsh perspective I guess 1 win would be a success with the 2 other games being close. I would think Oz might settle for that as well. I can't see a Welsh series win so think the above is about where it will be. Jamie Roberts will be bit of a loss for us as...

Wales are missing quite a few more than that. AWJ for starters. Matthew Rees who is on the bench is still coming back to form. Hooky possibly would have been in the centre with JD injured. Our 2nd/3rd choice tightheads are out along with Adam Jones. Also, a lot of these players haven't played...

Once we lay Shane to rest and bring in Cuthbert that backline will have an average age of 22 or so.

Not a bad team for Wales. Considering a handful out through unavailabilty and injury then it is still good quality. Backs won't overly miss Phillips or Hook. Good to see Scott Williams linking up with Roberts. Both first choice locks out is a loss and also down to 3rd choice tighthead but there...

Well done Oz, a deserved win. They looked hungrier than Wales although not a great game. It looked exactly what it was...... a game neither wanted to be in this time last week. It was certainly Wales' worst performance of the RWC but looking forward to our future match ups both in Dec then...

Oz seem far more up for this game. A bit messy this first half. Picking a loosehead to cover Adam Jones has backfored for Wales.

I would think it's a small minority that go over the top, most just argue the toss on whether it's a red or yellow. Bringing up the case that Rolland has a French Father isn't a big deal. Most of us are outside of that racist stereotype you are trying to indicate. Besides, don't...

Samo opposite Jamie Roberts? That would be fun. I know where I'd put my money on who would come better off. I'm not even going to bother trying to make prediction on what the score might be for this game. It's a strange game to get up for after last week for both.

Sore fingers after that? England is a complicated situation. Ben Cohen said recently their to busy wanting to be rock stars or whatever. I do think there is a bit in that where they believe they are a far bigger deal than what they really are. If some of the top players kept their nose to the...

I partly agree with Paddy on the Spala red herring bit. The way they go on is as if Wales were the first to do it but Byrne the ex-Irish hooker said he was there several years ago with the Irish. I think Wales were mentally weaker than the English and Irish to begin with which is why perhaps it...

Totally agree. It largely comes down to the mental weakness though for me. The top 2% is what has made Wales more physical. Wales were always mentally soft and still far from perfect there but Gats has started to correct this. They have had plenty of big guys for a while but pushing beyond their...

Glad to see such universal support for the Lions touring as plenty whinge about it from the 4 nations that make them up. There seems to be often a dip of form and injuries that occur straight after touring so it affects club/region form. Most seem to still want it to carry on but there are...

I think they have discussed central contracts again very recently. Don't go on Gwlad but know the Turks accounts have been dismal for a few tears now. Accounts are always way out of date though. Hopefully some of this new attitude of the current Welsh squad will lift the regions and get the...

Off topic Mr Blue - Nice signing picking up Henson. Not sure on the 10 jersey but hell of a centre partnership with Roberts potentially.

That's it, we had a player sent off in the semi and Oz had one in the play-off? Any bookies taking bets on who this time?

I think it's best for all teams to ignore it. Way to many flaws. With Oz making it to the last 4 it could result in you guys dropping to your worst ranking in quite a while and further down than where you started the tournie. Wales could hit their highest ranking (although extremely unlikely) so...
