Roman adventure
Well 800 years of oppression wasn't enough the English now conspire with the Italians to deny Wales a glorious victory in Rome!! In all honesty I cannot believe Wales blew that game and even though the officials and in particular the TMO who seemed to morph into a power crazed megalomaniac and thought he was the referee. For that reason I have some sympathy for Chris White who is one of,along with Joel Jutge the best referees in World rugby at the moment.
Wales have no one to blame but themselves for the loss, 20pts to 13 up with ten minutes to go and with the wind in their favour the game that game was there for the taking. Lack of leadership and clear thinking again cost Wales, whatever game Gareth Jenkins and the Welsh management are trying to sell to the players,they are not buying into.Wales games so far, seem to be characterised by individual not collective performances on the field.
Wales have just announced the same 22 for the game against our nearest and dearest. Personally I would have made a couple of changes Stephen Jones looks battered and bruised, mentally and physically,i would have moved Hook to 10 and brought Gareth Thomas to 13 alongside Shanklin and change the bench to include Charvis.

Certainly one of my favourite rugby moments ever.
I'm sure you remember this with great fondness... not so sure whether old arse-chin feels the same though.
regards to all

PhilD,
You're a bit slow catching on. That was the very first video Will posted. Try looking through the RuckU archives.
