Saw that, was following the game on the WP website.
Scratchy first half, but 35-0 in the second half looked much better

Looks like we may have a pretty decent f/half in the making
Wales take a man in the air at the lineout, England penalty.
England the far better side at present
Wales kicking has been pretty aimless so far
Wow, things really going the way for Eng

It is early days but i have hopes for him specially now that Eddie will become involved.
Mike Brown could well go down as one of the best Full backs in the history of the game. His career is still in its infancy, but his reading, understanding of the game, and his ball skills are sublime, and will only get better
Wales scrum penalty this time..
Have we seen a completed scrum yet, or have all gone to a penalty
Agree, Nort’s, a very good game this, made better by the fact that we are able to watch this one as spectators
Brilliant stuff by Wales. Slower into the game, but up to see now
Wales penalty right in front on the 22.
Was a marvelous break by Scott Williams
Williams held on to that 2 steps to long.
England 16 / 9 Wales

Hello Kalahari!

@ McLook:You can’t sleep?
This is the first real top class competitive game of the world cup…. still up for the grabs by halftime.
@ Just For Kicks:
It’s early morning over here.
Much better performances by the bokkies today.
Bit of tension between JdV and HM I thought at the end. Very short hug; no talking; walking away from each other immediately after the hug.
Johnny Wilkinson a great match summariser. A pleasure to listen to. Explains the thought process from a players perspective, and it makes a lot of sense
@ McLook:
@ 82
Why do you think there would be tension between the 2 of them?
@ McLook:
Interesting observation.
I just saw on the comments thread of the player ratings someone mentioned that the rumor is that JdV is coming home for Jan Serfontein.
McLook wrote:
I think JdV put his proverbial pants back on today, and stood up as leader. He certainly put Matfield in his place. Perhaps thats what upset HM a bit
2nd Half ON!
2nd half. Eng one change
@ robzim:
Just the body language.
Eng set pieces look very solid
They can give the Aussies a hard time in the scrums
