Wales missed a conversation too which might have won them the game apparently?

 

I tell you what might also have won us the game.

 

Playing the first half.

I'm on a train home too. 

 

My word that was too close to call.  

 

Cardiff really is the king of a 6 nations day out. 

Absolutely, slap bang in the city centre, two minutes walk from the main station. Got there three hours before kickoff and every bar, pub and restaurant was already rammed. 
 

Living in NWL I nipped over to Burton and took the direct train. I was looking at the Italy and France tickets on the way back but they clash with Mothers Day and City at home/Happy Mondays at Rock City.

Yep, been to the 4 home nations on matchdays and Cardiff trumps the lot, London's probably bottom of the list as its so big you wouldnt even know there was a match on until you hit the SW suburbs.

 

Stadiums in city centres truly add to the matchday in any sport. Its part of the reason why Newcastle is by far the best city for a football matchday and why they should never leave SJP.

I had to Uber it from Loughborough to Derby and got the direct train too. 

 

The 8pm Nottingham train on the way home was packed, but 80% of it emptied at Cheltenham Spa....

 

That's my 6 nations done for this year, Edinburgh is a pain to get home from and Dublin tickets are non existent, especially since its our last game.

I started to make my way out in the last minute (I risked Scotland not giving away a penalty on the scrum in their own half) and made a dash ( I actually ran for something for the first time in years!) and caught the 6.45, got a seat and  it was pretty full but near enough everyone got off at Newport. 
 

I was originally looking at the 8pm train but it would have meant getting back at midnight instead of 10pm. It was a damp and miserable day and I just didn’t fancy hanging around. 
 

My one gripe and I know this is a Twickenham thing as well. I did have a couple of pints but the number of times I had to stand up to let people out for a beer run or the toilet on my row was ridiculous.I will seriously consider the alcohol free sections when I go again.

Anyone watched 'Six Nations: Full Contact' on Netflix?

 

As a casual fan I'm really enjoying the insight and behind the scenes look at the game.

 

Big strong boys who love the physical contact.

 

Nutters the lot of em

@FoxyPV  where you at my brother???

Insert Randy Marsh masturbation gif

 

Unbelievable win.

[RonnieTodger]

Tremendous game at Murrayfield. Makes you realise how bad England are to watch. 

[FoxyPV]

This would be an unbelievable steal for Scotland.

 

[FoxyPV]

Gutting for Scotland.

 

So close

[trabuch]

Harsh on Scotland. I can't understand how that ball couldn't be anything but grounded.

[leicsmac]

Scotland really haven't had much luck with decisions in critical circumstances that could have gone in their favour in recent years, have they?

[CWC1983]

Numerous chances through the game to score from 5m out. If you can't score from them you deserve to lose. 

 

Disappointed to say the least 

[Zear0]

Shame. 

[David Hankey]

Indiscipline will hand this game to Wales.

[leicsmac]

Excellent response with two men down there.

[surrifox]

Might need to send another couple off to help them out 

[RowlattsFox]

Rugby experts will probably correct me but that first yellow is a bit ridiculous isn't it? 

[leicsmac]

This ref is a bit finicky. Kickers adjust their stance before taking a kick all the time.

Edited 10 February by leicsmac

[leicsmac]

That being said, indiscipline is a real issue here.

[Tielemans63]

Poor game so far. Both sides making lots of errors.

 

Right on cue, Wales score a belter

Tommy Reffell has been the man of the match by a country mile, so far
