That's hilarious, Itoje walks away this time, knowing he fucked up.

Gets lucky.

England's kicking game has been excellent. I blame Borthwick.

Interesting one. He touched it for sure. But did it go clearly and obviously forward?

Oh come on, if it's not knock on, it's at the very least accidental offside.

No.

Try given.

Wales 7 England 33.

Second half could get very, very ugly. England impressive, but Wales making it easy for them.

No.

Itoje tried to handle it, a player on the ground in front of him had to catch/steady it. If that's not clear enough then just go with one of the other two issues I reckon.

Not that it matters, but come on, that shouldn't have been given.

Martin Johnson pointing out the bleeding obvious to Gabby Logan. "It's tries scored that the crucial statistic there."

I'm with Nigel Owens. It didn't obvious go forward so no knock on.

Awful half from us even if England have had a few lucky breaks.
They're far too powerful all round.

Which is fine, but they get given a knock on every week lol.

Appalling goal line defence by Wales. The half-time replays make ugly viewing for their defence coach. Very soft tries.

I think England could score over 80 points here if they are ruthless. There's an opportunity to humiliate Wales and given them a record spanking at home.

@sparky think it's smart play by England. Wales scramble defence has been pretty good at times during the last 3 games. The little tip passes going into contact look like something Wales weren't expecting. England usually take the contact

43-9 in August 2003 against England is Wales' biggest ever defeat in Cardiff.

That record is clearly under threat.

Crap play by Marcus Smith. Massively overcooks a simple kick.

Jonathan Davies "Blair Murray could have had a hat trick."

In the same way I could have gone out with Cindy Crawford.

Wales knock on with the line open.

Wainwright with the butter fingers.

It might not have been hugely obvious, but the fact an offside player on the ground had to steady it kinda counts against that opinion.

Jonathan "bleedin obvious, space out wide!" Davies.

God, he's shit.

Ben Earl in at 12. Innovative for England

Hopefully it's inspirational. Ardie and Du Plessis were born for the midfield.

Marcus Smith has not had his best game. Error-strewn performance.

Henry Pollock in for a try on debut.

England 45 Wales 7

Hayes in. England hit 50+.

Wales absolutely rancid.

What a spanking!

If this was a boxing match, the referee would have ended it a long time ago.

Clinical by Borthwick's team

Thomas in for his second try so it perhaps won't be a record defeat at home for Wales.

But Wales concede almost immediately. Pollock in for his second.

Well that was rather sad.

Time to give Georgia, Portugal or Spain a shot in the Six Nations?

Promotion and regulation will reduce the sad mismatches like we saw today.

Sad times to be a Welsh supporter.
We'll probably lose against Japan this summer too.
Never seen a capitulation like that in Cardiff & we've had some very dark times over the years.
Totally stuffed physically.
