socks 32,253 Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Pressure pressure pressure has got to produce results ... As soon as they opened up and relaxed a bit a try and that's the way wales need to play the FULL game ... Defence was outstanding ... If they loosen up and play a flowing game last week could be their only loss ........... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Malt 379 Posted February 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Spot on Socks! That win will lift a huge pressure off the lads by ending the loosing streak, and a win away in France is no mean feat against any French team, vintage or not.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As for nobody being scared of playing either I'll agree with that statement concerning France, I picked them as winners BUT we showed some good stuff today and that win will put us back in all teams minds. We ground a game out today and won, something your lot done for seasons but its classed differentley then though ain't it? A win is a win however its achieved.......simple as.

Malt 379 Posted February 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 ...but there is nothing to concern any side waiting to play the french or the welsh.......... Keep telling yourself that, France are capable of playing like that in one game, and then beating any team in the world in their next! It's a cliche to say that you never know what France team are going to walk out on the pitch, but it's been true for as long as I have been watching international rugby.. Wales, well we have only played in patches over the last year and our confidence has been as low as it has been in a long, long time. We showed we can still turn it on in the second half last week, and a win away in France will give us confidence.. It's this confidence that makes us a danger, and if you think we are nothing to be concerned about after a morale boosting win like today's, then biggest fool you!
