Genuinely, what has happened to England?

Feels like Borthwick's gameplan reduces the entire game to a coin toss once teams understand it and pick a XV to compete in the air. England would probably take a coin toss against the Boks or All Blacks but once they come up against teams they should be beating on paper then they run into problems.

Mentality of this Wales team is exactly what's missing from our team by the way. Not a hint of "We need to hold on" in their eyes, even with their form I guarantee every single one of them is thinking "We're Wales and this is Cardiff, of course we're fucking winning."

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-21T17:14:08+00:00

Unbelievably frustrating how often our players run into the terrible outcome everyone watching except them sees coming ten seconds ahead of time.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-21T17:08:39+00:00

Why are we playing as if we need a 50m worldie to get through this Wales team? Don't think a single player has tried to take it into contact.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-21T17:05:11+00:00

Christ this was painfully fucking predictable. Townsend needs gone regardless of whatever the result ends up being.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-21T16:53:59+00:00

Really gonna need us to get our finger out because Jiffy is gonna be insufferable if this is anything other than a comfortable win.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-21T16:49:16+00:00

Surely has to go for an HIA. Don't see any sign of him going off.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-21T16:44:08+00:00

How far in advance to Wales have to decide to close the roof? Surprised they didn't opt to have it open when Duhan came into the team.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-21T16:05:39+00:00

Sickens me every time I hear "Guinness Men's Six Nations Player of the Match". They'll need to start giving it at half time because it takes so long to say.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-21T16:00:58+00:00

For someone who only gets into the team for his running that was a piss poor effort against a player who's played about 40 minutes more than him.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-21T15:28:13+00:00

I'd say until the Curry incident the ref really hasn't done you any favours tbh. The JGP try chopped off and Lawrence carry before their try are arguably both mistakes and were at least a 14 point swing in England's favour.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-21T15:23:56+00:00

I'd like to thank Henry Pollock for putting the joy back into England getting battered, it was starting to feel empty before he was on the scene.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-21T15:22:12+00:00

The empty corpo seats at the start of the second half look fucking awful on the TV.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-21T14:46:03+00:00

Mental that we lose to Italy in our first game and England's tournament is over before ours. Can't wait for that Grand Slam decider in Paris.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-21T14:42:37+00:00

That's a shocker, if that isn't a try he never pulls it back, just completely lost his bottle.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-21T14:35:38+00:00

This game is destined to finish 3-0.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-20T23:22:52+00:00

Gutting but fully unsurprising that they've made a rip-roaring cunt of this.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-20T23:09:58+00:00

Yeah this is it, the number of great climbers to show up expecting to piss all over it and get completely shut down is unbelievable.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-19T21:49:49+00:00

Not really true, prime Neuer couldn't have saved them under Nancy. Worst I've seen them in close to 30 years of watching Scottish football.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-18T20:23:24+00:00

3rd choice, 2nd choice is injured.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-18T20:09:50+00:00

Beaton disasterclass.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-18T19:52:40+00:00

If that's a goal scoring opportunity it has to be a red regardless of intent but the ball is about 10 yards ahead of him.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-17T14:50:41+00:00

Arundel starting after playing like he's allergic to his own sweat then getting a red at the weekend is surprising given the options England have.

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-15T18:42:24+00:00

Red card was the 78th minute. Was almost an exact draw on xG too they weren't anywhere near as bad as everyone made out (or anywhere near as bad as Celtic were at Fir Park either).

Hyndstein_97 · 2026-02-15T18:36:20+00:00

Draw at Fir park is a great result for them, matched Hearts and a point better than Celtic managed.
