Totally agree. I wasnt pleased to think of James The Crab Hook in centre either. It all came down to Liam Williams and the concussion tests and he was OK. Hope he has a good game because Cuthbert is like a twat. Good news that the front row has changed thoughThank god you were wrong about James fcuking Hook , that nightmare is on the bench. Cuthbert ??? ffs, although with our injuries there aren't really many other options.
Wales team:
Backs: Gareth Anscombe (Cardiff Blues), Alex Cuthbert (Cardiff Blues), George North (Northampton Saints), Jamie Roberts (Harlequins), Liam Williams (Scarlets), Dan Biggar (Ospreys), Gareth Davies (Scarlets).
Forwards: Paul James (Ospreys), Scott Baldwin (Ospreys), Samson Lee (Scarlets), Luke Charteris (Racing 92), Alun Wyn Jones (Ospreys), Sam Warburton (Capt) (Cardiff Blues), Justin Tipuric (Ospreys), Taulupe Faletau (Newport Gwent Dragons).
Glad to see the two props back both a step up scrum wise though Gethin still has a lot about him.
Who are all the Englnd rugby fans going to support now? Ireland, Scotland , Wales? Can't believe it would be France or the Southern Hemisphere sides?
I badly hope we beat the convicts, the Poms have been copping it all week at work from the convicts , it's understandable after the hiding in the ashes. As a big fan of the team of the England (-and Wales) cricket side - i dished it out a lot and am hoping on Monday I will be doubling down not copping flack.Argentina/Wales. If Japan make it through then them. My Grandad would probably be the happiest man alive if Wales win so I should probably lean towards them and definitely will be against the shackle-draggers.

I think Gats wants to win this group
You're not wrong I've seen us lose after the 80th min in Sydney, with a last minute penalty in Melbourne, by the bounce of the ball in Sydney again and it amazes me how we can snatch so many defeats from the jaws of victoryI can't see you winning as much as I'd like it. Wales just have a huge mental block with Australia, you can be winning comfortably with 10 left and then just throw it away. Hope I'm wrong but I suspect not.
It's over exaggerated - to win the thing you are going to have to beat the all blacks and the winner of Ireland v France so the hard side is only swapping Scotland for springboks. If you can't beat the Boks you won't have a chance anywayAnd avoid South Africa and the All Blacks? No shit.
