Ah thanks, I didn't know that. But where is the clash? There was no clash for the same game last year, with Wales (home) in their red shirt and white shorts with broad red seams, and England in their usual all white: th-cam.com/video/qtNvEWDkXFk/w-d-xo.html
Sad to see that Wales points only arose from penalties. Their threes line was doing great ball handling but seemed to always fade away when the try line neared.
Absolutely. Less is more in commentary; there were a few less personal anecdotes this week, but we still get what John Cleese called 'a masters degree in the bleedin obvious'. Yes, we know that was a big tackle, or the scrum is going backward, or she's a powerful woman, or she's found touch ... and stop screaming, please.
Thank goodness the the commentator informed us that WOMEN are playing this Rugby Match. I'm really happy that Sara Orchard tell us at every opportunity that WOMEN are playing this game. Without her constant & condescending commentary I would be confused. Other than that. Well Done to both teams for giving us a good match.
Well done England. I hope they take time to compare the benefits they obtained from running with the results achieved from kicking. Very confused about playing colours. I thought home teams played in their home colours, and that colours are based on national flag. There's no blue in the England flag. Can anyone enlighten me?
i think its something about being politicly correct for coulor blind people cant make out the diffrence ..another example of the many being dictated to by the very few
Why do the commentators big up the Welsh when they are clearly struggling, claiming that the Welsh are defending well when they have missed the first tackle, yet again, and then failed to prevent the offload. It isn’t doing them any favours and they subsequently look foolish when the score goes stratospheric.
Good to see Kat Roche penalize England for taking 8 seconds after being told to "use it". Scum half (or whoever) has 5 seconds from being told to use it. Hope others follow her lead.
Referee's should be there to maintain fair play, nothing else. It is up to the teams to decide how and at what pace they play ! All you hear these days are referee's shouting "use it" at widely varying intervals. Let the teams play FFS. 🤷♀️
I must admit that I don't think this was Kat Roche's finest hour. Missing Marlie Packer's foul on the Welsh No 9 was pretty gross and she also missed at least a couple of high tackles. Mind you, reffing isn't easy and it's not something I'd want to do. Have to take the rough with the smooth.
@@robinholland1136 A defender tapping/slapping the ball while in the 9's hands is deemed to be interfering with the playing of the ball away from the ruck, so is penalised. That is in effect ruled the same as "touching/playing the 9" before the ball has been lifted (unless the ref says/decides it is out or the 9 has had 5 seconds to play it). However after the ball is lifted (or 5 seconds to play it has passed), the ball is "in play" and the player can be tackled by a player who comes from behind the hind foot or is bound in the ruck but supporting his own weight (not relying on players to keep him up). Slapping/tapping the arm (or an ankle-tap or a destabilising shove) is in that case regarded as "a tackle action" and is allowed (if the defender is onside or is self-supporting) because the ball is in play. The initial impression is very little difference between the two - that's why it is confusing. In that sense it is a bit like why a charge-down off the arm/hand is not an offence, but a knock-on is. They both involve the ball bouncing forward off the arm/hand, but the outcome is reffed differently. the welsh 9 had the ball in both hands and had taken a step with one foot so ... Obviously Marlie knows the laws better than the commentary team... and just before England scored one of the Welsh defenders tried to do the same but sadly didn't affect the pass. It may be a loophole but but the ref was spot on in this case.
Once again wales big fat unfit forwards jogging around the pitch never getting in front of englands mobile pack leaving all the hard work to thier backs who are not going to stop englands mobile and very fast forwards a few feet from the line
most if not all the welsh team play in the PWC so I would dispute the unfit bit certainly and when you look at the weights tuipuloto lifts I suspect the bulk isn't all fat
@@Olafjabberwocky You can lift a ton but if you cant run around for eighty minutes your no use england forwards big fast and agile cerys phillips can hardly walk never mind run
Great game to watch
In rugby historically the home team changes kit when clashes occur.

They scored a try, it might have come from a penalty but it was still a try.
I've just noticed Marlie Packer having a cheeky leg wax at 59.50 on the match clock. Whatever next?
THE BALL WAS LIFTED SO IN PLAY ...GET OVER IT
red roses, you underperformed..
The women's rugby is better to watch than the turgid men's game but the BBC commentator is dire. Katie D-M would do a far better job.

Commentator did her best to ruin the match I turned the volume down at half time.
@@66marlinmike Her overly patronising comments usually do ruin any commentary.

Because the game is on the BBC which has a history of being anti English in their news and sports commentary.

@@garymoore2535 So teams can play as slowly as they want, basically wasting time.

Dropping too many points from kicking at posts.
