    Talking about “When Wales play the whole country stops”
    I used to work in a supermarket and I swear when the rugby is on, there was like 1-2 people in the whole store for the hour or so while the game in on.
    It goes dead.

      Come on England and Wales are as crap as each other.
      They only just beat us who are the worst English side I think I have ever seen.
      Revive is a bit much.
      Wales have not met anyone with any ability yet. And Fiji should have won the game against you other than adropped balland some seriously one sided officiating.

    They are bringing in Kieron Hardy, because of the injury to Anscombe, they need two number 9s and they have been playing Tomos Williams at 10 in training, so they have backup if Anscombe doesn't make it.

    Comments on this video are so stupid - compare how wales looked in the 6 nations and warm ups to that performance against Australia, that’s a revival and then some, “warrenball” is such a stupid term that no one seems to understand, it refers to a defensive game plan with a crash ball 12, sure they’re still playing low possession defensive rugby but Nick Tompkins is there for his playmaking, and we have some actual interesting attack formation now

    The only difference will be if u lose quarter final game the record books will say out in quarter rather than semi ,but the best teams will make the final no matter wat .The way u got look at it is the quarter final is huge more so for France , Ireland,south Africa , new zealand this is there semi final .and for Wales , england, Argentina,Fiji this is a quarter final ,who ever wins with France , Ireland,south Africa,and newzealand will see that final right in front of them well before the semi final kick off unless huge upset .

      Hold on. No one was giving us a chance of getting out of the pool - even many welsh supporters. I saw some predictions that we’d only beat Portugal.
      Now the talk is we were in an easy group and we’ve been lucky with the draw. I guess you can’t win with some people 🤷‍♂️

      Ireland will lose eventually. It’s inevitable. They won’t go on a 100 match unbeaten run will they? I’d be surprised if they get to 20 tbh. At some point, they’ll lose a game. At some point, they’ll lose a big game. At some point, they’ll lose to one of the other home nations. Why not Wales in a potential semi final?
      Look to be fair, it’s unlikely. We all know that. As Wales fans though, it’s good to see our team win and play with a bit of freedom again. That was missing for so long. The players looked jaded and totally lacked confidence. That seems to have been dispelled now.
      Every team will have a minimum requirement, for Ireland it’s probably getting to the final. For Wales, it was getting out of the group.
      The Welsh boys will have to believe they can beat anyone. That’s the correct attitude for professionals like them to have. It’s the same for England and every tier 1 nation. At least, it should be. If you don’t think you can win, why bother turning up?

      Fiji should have nicked it at the death, but Wales weren't "extremely" lucky. For the majority of that game they had control of the game and the score board.
      They lost control at the end. That's it.
      If they played Fiji next week, Wales would win convincingly
