00:00:00On the wing, Harrison winning his 13th cap for England, and the referee, Rene Ulke, waiting

00:00:29for the signal from the television engineer on the touchline to get this game underway.

00:00:37Asking the Welsh keeper, Richard Moriarty, if he's ready to receive.

00:00:45The 93rd match between Wales and England about to get underway in the most unusual circumstances

00:00:52at Ballymore Park, and it's England, Webb, to kick off.

00:00:57Almost an orthodox kick-off, Robert Jones shadowing the ball down as it goes over the

00:01:02touchline in the in-goal area, and so it'll be a drop-out to Wales.

00:01:07And you'll notice there, Brevin Bowen, who's had all kinds of hamstring problems since

00:01:12arriving in New Zealand, is very heavily strapped up.

00:01:15Brevin Bowen in the centre for his 14th cap.

00:01:22Jonathan Davies biding his time.

00:01:25Neat little drop-out for his forwards to run on to Dooley, gets a hand to it, Dean Richards

00:01:29is through there for England, as England drive down towards the Welsh 22.

00:01:33It's good ball out for the England strikers, back to William, the left-footed Hoyt.

00:01:38Foreman seems to be momentarily out of position, and he's anxious, finally.

00:01:44Rene Ulke's decision is gun-fly for the Welsh defence.

00:01:48Hit this away then, no, it's going to be a drop-out.

00:01:53And here's the action replay, Hedlund and Bowen as caravans.

00:01:56Yes, it's not very reassuring for the Welsh defence there, but an excellent kick by Peter

00:01:59Williams, and I thought they've obviously looked at this tactic and how they're going

00:02:02to prepare for the game, put a lot of pressure on both forward and pull-back.

00:02:07During the action replay, Wales dropped out from the 22, a long drop-out, but it was returned

00:02:12with some interest by John Webb, the England pull-back, and so it's a line-out on the 10-metre

00:02:17line, just inside the England half.

00:02:20David Young there, winning his first cap.

00:02:22Bob Norster, the experienced British line.

00:02:27Phillips with a throw, finds Norster, the carded combination working in the line-out.

00:02:30Jonathan Davies, returning the compliment, the high up and under, Richards is unrelated

00:02:35for England, but it's offside.

00:02:38John Devereux, a judge to be in front of the ball after the kick.

00:02:41So it'll be Peter Williams, the England outside half, some 10 metres, outside is 22.

00:02:54Left footed that time, and that's a lovely kick from Williams, eating up the distances.

00:03:01Tony Gray in the stand, these are early moments, anxious moments for him.

00:03:11Wade Dooley, six foot seven.

00:03:17Phillips to throw.

00:03:20Redmond jumping at the front for England.

00:03:22This one goes to the tail of the line-out.

00:03:24Moriarty takes it, a good take by Wales.

00:03:26Good clean drive from them, if they can get the ball back to Robert Jones.

00:03:29Jones on the catch, his opposite number, offside.

00:03:33That's Richard Harding of Bristol.

00:03:36Webb is underneath it, but it's a penalty to Wales.

00:03:39Referee quite intelligently, waiting for the advantage, but then signalling that

00:03:43Harding had gone offside after that disguise by Robert Jones.

00:03:48Jonathan Davies again.

00:03:55That's a fine looking kick from Jonathan Davies, gaining some 23 metres.

00:03:59Martin Green, the England coach.

00:04:01So it's Brian Moore of Nottingham, running his fourth cap for England.

00:04:07Take a look around to see what options have opened.

00:04:09That's one of them, Dooley in the middle.

00:04:11Dooley doesn't quite get a hold of that one.

00:04:13The Welsh rummage around, but the whistle's gone from the referees, the croquet, and it's

00:04:19the Welsh crumb just inside the England half.

00:04:24Now the two sides tend to toy with each other with these high up and unders in the

00:04:28The two sides tend to toy with each other with these high up and unders in the early

00:04:32exchanges.

00:04:32There's a collapse of the crumb, and the referee will take a very, very close look at that.

00:04:38Naturally enough, the Welsh crumb under a great deal of pressure in the front row.

00:04:42A lot of inexperience at this level, Buchanan and Young especially.

00:04:48This time, it's a free kick to England.

00:04:51Bernie Urquhart having spotted illegalities in the front row.

00:04:59So it's Paul Williams, the outside half,

00:05:05punishing Wales for that indiscretion in the scrum.

00:05:09One really does wonder how much pressure there will be in the scrummages on Young, David

00:05:15Young, who was snatched from the Western Suburbs club in Canberra.

00:05:19That's a very late replacement in the Welsh crumb.

00:05:24Phillips with a throw, looking for Norster.

00:05:27Up goes Moriarty, but it's lost Paul Redman, trying to do some coverage work for England.

00:05:32Lays the ball back, and certainly there's no love lost, as England have the ball.

00:05:38Wade goes to Underwood, who's come across from the wing to Webb.

00:05:41This is the paceman, Webb, rushing away, one tackle, but the movement breaking down midway

00:05:48between the 22 and the halfway line.

00:05:50And an indication there, Gareth Davies, that England are quite prepared to run the ball

00:05:54with extra men coming in from all directions.

00:05:56That's right, he was England's strength, really.

00:05:58Rory Underwood and Harrington, two of the finest wings in British rugby,

00:06:01and he certainly used Underwood there from the blind side.

00:06:04Robert Jones waiting.

00:06:06Jonathan Davies, outside is 22, so the kick will have to be a careful one.

00:06:11It looks a good one.

00:06:13Jonathan Davies, splendid kick from the far side, reading the bounce of the ball well.

00:06:19Welsh for a paceman, and reserves.

00:06:26So the line-out throws have come from Brian Moore, 25-year-old booker of England, from Nottingham.

00:06:38And there's a familiar chant around Balliball Park, Wales, Wales, encouraging the red shirts on.

00:06:46And it's a change to see Wales playing in red shirts actually.

00:06:49Twice they've had a play in green against Tonga and Canada.

00:06:53More throws.

00:06:54Dooley, the towering policeman at the back.

00:06:57And Wales in their eagerness to go through, infringing at the line-out.

00:07:07Peter Williams, the England outside half.

00:07:10Father played for Tenetti, as did the father of his opposite number, Jonathan Davies.

00:07:16And the line-out on the 10-metre line.

00:07:21Six and a half minutes of this first half gone.

00:07:23No score at Balliball Park.

00:07:25Richard Moriarty, the Welsh captain.

00:07:27There's the main line-out target, Robert Forster.

00:07:34Phillips, lobs that one.

00:07:36It's well taken by Richard Moriarty that time.

00:07:38The drive is on from the red shirts.

00:07:40Collins there, giving support on the open side as Wales move over the 10-metre line.

00:07:46England doing well, though, to halt the surge by the Welsh.

00:07:51And referee Rene Urquhart deciding that the ball would not come out of there.

00:07:54And so a ward was scrummed.

00:07:57The Welsh put in just inside the Welsh half.

00:08:06Sunshine conditions at Balliball Park,

00:08:08as Robert Jones puts the ball in.

00:08:10And this one is back against their head.

00:08:12Harding to Winterbottom.

00:08:13Winterbottom to Dean Richards.

00:08:15Richards is grounded on the 10-metre line.

00:08:17England anxious to get hold of the ball.

00:08:19And a little bit of friction as Buchanan goes through.

00:08:22Rather indisciplined action.

00:08:26And Buchanan is penalised that time.

00:08:29Richie Collins is the man on the ground.

00:08:34The kick against the head there, which Harding used well on the blind side.

00:08:37And Winterbottom feeds back inside to Richards.

00:08:39And that's probably been the strength of England's side during the World Cup.

00:08:42And here we see then Buchanan coming in rather ill-disciplined.

00:08:45And possibly the penalty was against Richie Collins for trying to handle the ball on the ground.

00:08:50But I think we see the strength of the English forwards driving through again,

00:08:53which made the ball available for Harding.

00:08:55But unfortunately, Buchanan rather over-vigorously stepped in.

00:09:00So problems for the Welsh.

00:09:02They've been plagued by injuries since arriving in New Zealand.

00:09:07Having sent Billy James back first of all.

00:09:12Then the tragic departure of Geoff Whitefoot as well.

00:09:15And of course, Stuart Evans.

00:09:18And rather significant there, Martin.

00:09:20The first strike against the head.

00:09:21So from Wales's point of view,

00:09:23that'll obviously be fairly disappointing with too many members in the front row.

00:09:27Richie Collins, his fourth cap for Wales.

00:09:32And a double international.

00:09:34Young basketball international as well as a senior rugby international.

00:09:38It seems to be okay.

00:09:39That's good news for the Welsh camp.

00:09:43Meanwhile though, it's Webb.

00:09:47Having kicked 40 points for England in this competition.

00:09:53And pointing the ball towards the post.

00:09:56And he's going out from a very foggy cabbage patch.

00:10:00Webb, he's struck it well, but it's a bit short.

00:10:02Phil Warren, just falling to the right of the post.

00:10:06And the ball being marshalled through and shadowed by fourth Auburn.

00:10:13Jonathan Davies then to restart.

00:10:20Wales really haven't had sufficient possession to launch any kind of attack

00:10:26against the England three quarters.

00:10:28And this is dangerous play.

00:10:29But this is an opportunity in broken play.

00:10:31Gerrard.

00:10:31Happy comes to Iain Evans.

00:10:33Iain Evans up to the pen, middle line.

00:10:34Over the half way line, he's got the football to Freddie Bowen.

00:10:39Oh, Iain Evans doing exceptionally well that time.

00:10:42But what was rather noticeable, Gareth Davies,

00:10:44that Freddie Bowen inside him was struggling to gather pace.

00:10:46Yes, I think it's quite significant that his hamstring is quite heavily strapped.

00:10:50And it's obviously a disappointing sign for Wales.

00:10:53But they showed a lot of initiative there,

00:10:54whether they moved the quick ball after a mistake.

00:10:59The show coming from Moore and the two-handed catch by Redmond.

00:11:03But the whistle of referee Rene Urquhart

00:11:06giving England a scrum midway between the English 22 and the halfway line.

00:11:12Ten and a half minutes gone on this first half.

00:11:14Still no score.

00:11:17Robert Jones, this time a clean heel for Wales.

00:11:21That's the 10 metre line to his left.

00:11:23The box kick is meant for Iain Evans.

00:11:25But I don't think he read the signal because he certainly didn't charge up on it.

00:11:28And that one is going out on the floor.

00:11:30So back they come.

00:11:34So certainly a little bit of nervousness.

00:11:37A bit of tenseness as well in the Welsh camp.

00:11:41The signal's not quite being read between scrum half and wing that time.

00:11:45This is Moriarty jumping at number two in the line-out.

00:11:49Brian Moore, looking for Dooley.

00:11:58Dooley sort of getting a hand to it that time.

00:12:00But it wasn't the cleverest of balls.

00:12:03And Richard Harding won't thank Wade Dooley for that kind of possession.

00:12:10So midway between the 22 and the halfway line.

00:12:12Robert Jones once again.

00:12:14So far the Welsh scrimmage having conceded one.

00:12:18Holding up there under a great deal of pressure.

00:12:20You can see the writhing and the wriggling going on.

00:12:22Jonathan Davies.

00:12:23That's a lovely kick up.

00:12:25Webb is underneath it.

00:12:26He's into the sunshine as well.

00:12:28Up go the Welsh three quarters.

00:12:33Webb took that extremely well into the sunshine.

00:12:37And seems to have been shaken a bit.

00:12:39But that was brave play by the young Bristol player, John Webb.

00:12:45Excellent play by Webb there.

00:12:46But it's quite significant.

00:12:47I think that Wilsor probably looked at this play.

00:12:48Webb isn't renowned for his safety under the high ball.

00:12:51And I think that's a prepared tactic by Webb.

00:12:55Webb gets his kick away after the mark was awarded.

00:12:58And it's a fine kick too.

00:12:59But he may have been hurt in the process.

00:13:02John Devereux going up there extremely fast.

00:13:05And he's a big man, Devereux.

00:13:09And it was an excellent kick by Jonathan Davies.

00:13:12I think the way he looked at it.

00:13:13He just sat back and looked and admired his kick.

00:13:15And Devereux, I think, did justice to it.

00:13:17And he's obviously caused Webb some problems.

00:13:21Webb seems to be OK for the moment.

00:13:24But after that kick and the touch,

00:13:26it's going to be a line-out some 10 metres outside the 22.

00:13:30Simon Phillips who had some problems with the line-out signals against Canada.

00:13:34That's all been sorted out with these strenuous training sessions

00:13:37that the Welsh have had since arriving in Australia.

00:13:41That's Lobs.

00:13:42Lobs gets up high but it's England ball.

00:13:44Harding outside of Williams.

00:13:47Salmon is there.

00:13:49As England look for the second possession.

00:13:51Comes out to Sims.

00:13:52To Webb on the far side.

00:13:53It's touched by a Welsh hand.

00:13:55So England not make the most of that possession.

00:13:59And much credit too to the Welsh cover defence getting across field

00:14:02and blocking the path of the two England centres, Kevin Sims and Jamie Salmon.

00:14:12The line-out again on the far side.

00:14:14Ball so short this time.

00:14:17The ball goes back on the Welsh side.

00:14:19Dick Moriarty leading on to Buchanan.

00:14:21But a knock-on at the crucial stage that time.

00:14:24A little bit of friction between Gary Rees and Paul Moriarty.

00:14:27Nothing serious.

00:14:28They're saying good day to each other.

00:14:35Harding.

00:14:37Well known to Welsh reporters.

00:14:39And the wheel of the Stum coming for the Welsh.

00:14:41It's back to the Welsh side.

00:14:42Jonathan Davies attempted drop goal.

00:14:44Is it there?

00:14:45It's gone to the right of the post.

00:14:47No excitement from Rene Urquhart.

00:14:49And we know about the capability of Jonathan Davies with his drop goals.

00:14:54Has scored three in this competition so far.

00:15:01So a little bit of pressure for Wales after 14 and a half minutes of play.

00:15:06Not the greatest of games so far by any means.

00:15:10John Webb.

00:15:12Dooley goes up high.

00:15:14Buchanan struggles for possession.

00:15:17As England put the drive on.

00:15:18That's David Young.

00:15:21Jonathan Davies.

00:15:22That's attempting one for Webb to get underneath.

00:15:25Underwood that is there giving cover as well.

00:15:26Dean Richards trying to get hold of the ball.

00:15:29And it goes on to the Welsh side.

00:15:30Play on.

00:15:31No offside that time.

00:15:33As Wales drive towards the England line.

00:15:36Looking for the possession.

00:15:37And Rene Urquhart decides that it's going to be a slump.

00:15:43And Wales with the forward momentum.

00:15:46Worried.

00:15:47Mr Green with Wales pressurising the England dry line.

00:15:52And yet another injury.

00:15:54Well obviously the last couple of minutes the best period for Wales, Gareth Davies.

00:15:58Yes very much so.

00:15:59And I think Jonathan again.

00:16:00Jonathan Davies with a little neat up and under come chip through the middle of the defence.

00:16:04Which caught England.

00:16:05And guarded.

00:16:06And excellent work by Gareth Roberts as well.

00:16:08Who was quickly on to the ball.

00:16:09It's a feature of some of the other teams that have done well in the competition.

00:16:13The success of their back row.

00:16:14And here we see the ball being taken there by Gareth Roberts.

00:16:18Driving forward looking to stand on his feet.

00:16:20Which is obviously very important.

00:16:22And the Welsh forwards driving through as well.

00:16:23So it's nice to see the whole team there as one.

00:16:28Unfortunately at the end the ball was not forward.

00:16:30And the resultant scum to England.

00:16:32Mansehiko Cannon receiving the magic sponge and the magic potions.

00:16:38Harvard to the Jones and rejoins his colleagues Aaron Phillips and David Young in the front row.

00:16:44Wales need to put on a bit of pressure in this scrum to gain anything from it.

00:16:49The advantage of scrummaging advantage certainly with England so far in this match.

00:16:53But the whip around coming from the Welsh.

00:16:55Making life difficult for Richard Harding.

00:16:56Gets his pass away.

00:16:58And a fine relieving kick and a touch.

00:17:00Half time from Peter Williams of Aral and Lancashire.

00:17:10So Alan Phillips with the throw in.

00:17:15Moving towards 17 minutes of play in this first half.

00:17:19Richard Collins at the back of the line-out for Wales.

00:17:22Redman goes through.

00:17:23The penalty and a little bit of indiscipline by the Welsh.

00:17:27And they'll do that fact by possibly having worked so hard to get up inside the England 22 to give it away.

00:17:35Oh some confusion in the ranks from René Urquhage.

00:17:41Oh certainly we thought he'd decided or watched the Welsh infringement.

00:17:45But he's given the penalty to Wales.

00:17:47And he's given the penalty to England.

00:17:49Oh certainly we thought he'd decided or watched the Welsh infringement.

00:17:52But he's given the penalty to Wales.

00:17:53So this is quite dramatic I'd say.

00:17:55Yes I thought it was rather strange because it was an untidy line-out.

00:17:58But my feelings were that the Welsh were infringed upon.

00:18:00And to see the penalty to England was rather puzzling.

00:18:02But a French interpretation there I think which caught us all caught us all out.

00:18:07Oh certainly we'll have to watch the signals of René Urquhage very carefully.

00:18:13Good day Wales from Linden Cap.

00:18:15And here's Paul Thorburn hoping to put Wales on to the scoreboard.

00:18:19Thorburn with 21 points in the World Cup so far.

00:18:2395 in total for Wales.

00:18:26Moving towards a century.

00:18:29Not a difficult kick.

00:18:31And there's a bit of wind, a bit of crosswind at Ballymore Park.

00:18:37Thorburn.

00:18:39Oh he's struck it badly.

00:18:40It's gone to the right of the post.

00:18:42To the right of the post.

00:18:43And that will be a worrying feature for Tony Gray and the Welsh management in the stand.

00:18:47That was a relatively simple kick.

00:18:52So still no points after 18 minutes of play.

00:18:58Webb with a restart.

00:18:59It's a short one.

00:19:00Dean Richards goes through for England.

00:19:03Paul Moriarty tries to clean up.

00:19:04So too does Richard Collins.

00:19:05But away come England.

00:19:07It's Dean Richards being fed by Richard Harding on the short side.

00:19:11Norster is there for Wales.

00:19:12But it's good pay ball for England.

00:19:14Out it goes to Salmon Sims.

00:19:17Some good Welsh midfield tackling there.

00:19:19Giving England all kinds of problems.

00:19:20There's the Welsh drive down towards the England 22.

00:19:25England do well to hold the tide of Welshire.

00:19:29Right on the 22.

00:19:33And suddenly it's going to be a scrum.

00:19:37Some 10 metres beyond the 22.

00:19:40And certainly it looks as if Robert Norster is feeling that hamstring injury.

00:19:47He's been on the physio table for some considerable time after the last Welsh match.

00:19:53And indeed was considered doubtful for this quarterfinal match.

00:19:56But he's on the field and still on it.

00:19:58As Robert Jones, midway between the 22, breaks on the short side.

00:20:01The kick is meant for Iain Evans to chase.

00:20:03It'll go out of the folder.

00:20:05And that's possibly a lost opportunity for Wales.

00:20:10Robert Jones, the kick a little bit too strong on that short side.

00:20:18So it's England to go.

00:20:20And their main target men.

00:20:22Dooley has now moved up in the line-out on this England throw to jump at number two.

00:20:27Shifting about certainly.

00:20:29Phillips takes it for Wales.

00:20:31And a penalty to England at the front.

00:20:35Phillips, the judge, to have been offside.

00:20:38Shakes his head in disbelief.

00:20:42Peter Williams again with the left foot.

00:20:48And after that pressure from Wales, England suddenly move into the Welsh half.

00:20:53That was a good period of pressure for Wales.

00:20:55And unfortunately for Paul Forbans, it didn't result in any points.

00:21:01Certainly deserved three.

00:21:03But still no score at Brisbane between Wales and England in this quarterfinal match

00:21:09after 20 minutes of play.

00:21:11Phillips throws, going for the middle.

00:21:12Robert tussles for the ball for Wales.

00:21:16As Robert Jones waits for the piece on his forward.

00:21:19He's got sight of it.

00:21:21Jonathan Davies.

00:21:24And that's a massive kick from Jonathan Davies.

00:21:26Well, once given good ball, we've seen from this man what he's capable of doing,

00:21:33especially against Canada.

00:21:34And that was a clear illustration.

00:21:36Given the ball, he can turn the match around.

00:21:41And an excellent clearance kick there, Martin, from Jonathan.

00:21:44I think he's showed today what he has showed in some recent games as well.

00:21:47Possibly more control, as he did against Ireland.

00:21:49I'm sure that's one aspect of his game that he is conscious about.

00:21:53Yes, certainly, because he's capable of doing it or not during the World Cup.

00:21:56The man in the walls, of course, is Gareth Roberts.

00:22:00The team talk for England being led there by Peter Winterbottom.

00:22:05And Gareth Roberts and Richie Collins have now received treatment from Tudor Jones.

00:22:11There must be some anxious moments up in the stand.

00:22:15Because of the two forward replacements, really.

00:22:19Kevin Phillips is a hooker.

00:22:21Steve Backmore, front.

00:22:22Hugh Richards is the other replacement forward.

00:22:25And, of course, he normally plays at block.

00:22:27Paul Neath.

00:22:29And the world's desperately short of fit back row men and also fit front row forwards.

00:22:39He's going to cut on the nose.

00:22:40Was it a bloody nose?

00:22:41Gareth Roberts is coming off the field, but I believe it's only momentarily.

00:22:48Received a little bit of treatment and also to tie his boots up.

00:22:51So Wales reduced in the line-out to seven men.

00:22:55More throws.

00:22:58Truly gets a hand, tries to clean it up, but it's untidy ball for the English.

00:23:01Salmon comes through there, but a thundering tackle by Jonathan Davies.

00:23:05Ball coming back, though, to Harding.

00:23:07Harding with the ball.

00:23:09A little bit confusing on that far side as Harrison gets hold of the ball,

00:23:13but the Welsh are there in numbers.

00:23:14Jonathan Davies is on the floor, way, way to our right.

00:23:19And the penalty has been awarded to England on that far side.

00:23:23And suddenly, concern shown about the Welsh outside half.

00:23:30And that injury, Martin, came after a tremendous tackle, actually, on his opposite number.

00:23:34England came back to the field.

00:23:35A tremendous tackle, actually, on his opposite number.

00:23:38England seemed quite prepared to run the ball behind.

00:23:40They haven't done it very well as yet, but they obviously got a lot of confidence.

00:23:44We see how the ball comes back on the England side.

00:23:48The ball is fed out, Williams to Salmon, who has a go,

00:23:51and then an excellent tackle there by Jonathan.

00:23:53Went low, but obviously, we've been hurt in the process.

00:23:55But here again, we see Winterbottom winning the loose ball.

00:23:58And again, the first instinct is to move it.

00:24:01Well, Jonathan Davies sees, indeed, worrying moments.

00:24:04It's almost like a casualty ward out there.

00:24:07And all of a sudden, the rain has appeared at Ballet Ball Park.

00:24:10The sunshine has certainly disappeared, and everybody's running for cover.

00:24:16But that's a sad sight for all Welsh supporters.

00:24:19Jonathan Davies does look worse for wear.

00:24:21Of course, his replacement up in the sand would be Malcolm Dacey.

00:24:24But one can only hope, after all the injury problems

00:24:27that have been sustained by the Welsh cap, that this young fellow is OK.

00:24:34He's OK, a little bit anxious about the time that's being allocated to the injury.

00:24:42And I'm sure that Jonathan Davies has no thoughts of leaving Ballet Ball Park

00:24:45unless the injury is a very serious one.

00:24:47But it's a penalty to England.

00:24:49We've got to get the ball back to England.

00:24:52But it's a penalty to England.

00:24:54We've now had 24 minutes of play, not the greatest of matches.

00:25:01And England gain a touch from the kick by Peter Williams just inside the Welsh half.

00:25:09There are the umbrellas on that far side.

00:25:11It really is a downpour.

00:25:12The wind has certainly picked up.

00:25:14It's a very wintry Australian day.

00:25:17Phillips with the throw.

00:25:19Richards goes through.

00:25:20It's bad ball.

00:25:21Robert Jones under pressure.

00:25:22Gets a neat little chip down along the touchline.

00:25:25And Harrison drops the ball just outside the 10-metre line.

00:25:30A mistake by the England captain allows Wales to move into the England half once again.

00:25:38Looking at the Welsh three-quarters.

00:25:43Limbering up there.

00:25:45Two men, Lillian Bowen and Jonathan Davies, holding their injuries.

00:25:48But Gareth Roberts is back onto the field and will surely rejoin his colleagues.

00:25:53Robert Jones decides to put the ball in.

00:25:55Roberts is back into the pack.

00:25:57Wales looking for possession.

00:25:59Jones to Davies.

00:26:00He attempted to drop goal, but it's not a good one.

00:26:02But it might be a nice handy kick ahead.

00:26:07Back there goes Webb.

00:26:08And under a bit of pressure from both Welsh winners.

00:26:12And I wonder with the two ringers in there whether Jonathan Davies has misread the call

00:26:16because Hadley had come in as the extra man.

00:26:18And Iain Evans was there on hand as well.

00:26:22Could well have been a three-quarter call by the Welsh.

00:26:28They're in the middle of a downpour.

00:26:30It's Alan Phillips to throw in a good attacking position for Wales after 25 minutes.

00:26:36The ball goes to the back to Richard Collins.

00:26:38Collins looking for the support from Gareth Roberts.

00:26:41Moriarty picks up for Wales.

00:26:42A big regroup just inside England 22.

00:26:45And it's Roberts trying to make headway down towards the England try line.

00:26:49Still no sight of the ball as Robert Jones gets hold of the ball to Jonathan Davies.

00:26:53A little bit of a steady little break and looking for faith.

00:26:55Jonathan Davies looking for the support.

00:26:58John Devereaux is there as well.

00:26:59On to Richard Collins.

00:27:00Collins to Buchanan.

00:27:01Buchanan.

00:27:02The ball goes to about a metre or so from the England try line.

00:27:07A great pressure by the Welshman.

00:27:09And all started of course by Jonathan Davies with that little shimmy and the little jink inside.

00:27:15And that caused the England defence all sorts of problems.

00:27:21And a lovely attack there by Wales as you said Martin.

00:27:23Instigated by Jonathan Davies.

00:27:25An excellent support by the forwards again.

00:27:27And we saw Buchanan nearly crossing for his first try in his first international.

00:27:31And I'm sure he'd have been delighted if he could have put his hands on that ball.

00:27:35So no try for Wales but an injury instead to Paul Rendell.

00:27:41And here we see Jonathan fainting for the drop goal.

00:27:43Steps in off his left foot and shows again his tremendous pace.

00:27:48And he's just held there by quite a few of the English lads.

00:27:50And here we see John Devereaux again using his strength.

00:27:53Looking for support.

00:27:54And there we've got Richard Collins with Buchanan outside.

00:27:58Nearly crossing for his first try with it.

00:28:00Now Paul just seems to lose his grasp and bounces off Alan Phillips's head.

00:28:05And the chance is lost to him.

00:28:10So if Anthony Buchanan had held on to that one and crossed.

00:28:14What a night they would have had at a second night's rugby club.

00:28:16It looks as if Paul Rendell now is the latest injury victim.

00:28:21Coming off the field with a cut eye.

00:28:26But this an excellent opportunity for Wales.

00:28:29Despite the fact that it's going to be an England put in.

00:28:33Chance to put some pressure.

00:28:36Harding to the field.

00:28:39And Wales putting on a tremendous stride.

00:28:41And a few of the tries have been given.

00:28:43The tries have been given.

00:28:44Gareth Roberts brings back the ball.

00:28:45He's absolutely thrilled.

00:28:48Well we all thought that the Welsh scrummaging would be under pressure in this match.

00:28:52But that was extra scrummaging work.

00:28:55And a try for Gareth Roberts which puts Wales into the lead four points to nil.

00:29:01And that was excellent work by Wales.

00:29:02Obviously they knew the English scrummage was weakened.

00:29:05Here they have the drive on England.

00:29:06Try to wheel it.

00:29:07But obviously the ball does pop out.

00:29:08And Gareth Roberts on hand to score his second try for Wales.

00:29:12And from the other side we see the drive.

00:29:15England do try to disrupt.

00:29:16The ball shoots out.

00:29:18And Roberts, the ever-present Roberts is on hand to score.

00:29:21Corbyn with a conversion.

00:29:22And we could see from that other angle how simple a try that was.

00:29:26That's a better kick from Paul Corbyn.

00:29:27It's an extra two points.

00:29:30Wales into the lead six points to nil after 29 minutes of the first half.

00:29:36And still the rain beats down at Ballywool Park.

00:29:39But that would be of no concern to the Welsh.

00:29:41But of some concern to the English camp is the injury to Paul Rendell.

00:29:46Just at the vital moment.

00:29:47Chilcot warming up.

00:29:49And it must be said, in fairness to the English camp,

00:29:53that that scrimmaging try was scored when they were minus Paul Rendell.

00:30:01Gareth Chilcot, a pass.

00:30:04Prepared to come on.

00:30:06And he too has Welsh connections.

00:30:11Webb to restart for England.

00:30:14Chilcot coming on.

00:30:17And of course he played against Wales at Cardiff.

00:30:20Moriarty underneath the high ball.

00:30:22That was a dangerous charge into the back.

00:30:24But it's allowed to go on Moriarty.

00:30:27Harding waiting for the delivery.

00:30:29Williams, the high kick.

00:30:30That's meant for Corbyn or anybody else who wants the call in the Welsh defence.

00:30:34Corbyn takes it well.

00:30:35Call to the mark.

00:30:36And it's given.

00:30:38A two excellent catches.

00:30:39One by John Webb under the high ball.

00:30:41One by Paul Corbyn.

00:30:42The full-backs having a good day.

00:30:47Corbyn with the trusted right foot.

00:30:52Takes play to 10 metres outside the 22.

00:30:58So it'll be Brian Moore.

00:31:00Nottingham to throw in.

00:31:04Half an hour gone of this first half.

00:31:06Wales in the lead.

00:31:08Six points to nil.

00:31:09Moore with a throw.

00:31:12Dooley two-handed.

00:31:13Richards back to Moore.

00:31:15But it was a little bit too quick.

00:31:17And a joint single between a couple of the factions.

00:31:28And with the referee, Rene Urquhart, telling the fellas to go in 15 metres.

00:31:35And some of the other players are going to be in the back.

00:31:38And suddenly, it's a better day at Ballymore Park.

00:31:40The rain has now ceased.

00:31:42Despite the fact that the umbrellas are up from the past night.

00:31:44It may be a fine result.

00:31:47Robert Jones.

00:31:49Jonathan Davies.

00:31:50Got away from Harding.

00:31:51Davies spotted a bit of daylight and greenery in the middle of the park.

00:31:55Webb.

00:31:55There's a bit of a misunderstanding between Webb and Harrison.

00:31:58And the ball is loose.

00:31:59It's picked up by Richard Collins.

00:32:00Collins with the feed on to Gareth Roberts.

00:32:03The back row in concert for Wales.

00:32:05Hunting for this ball to Jonathan Davies on the short fly.

00:32:08Let him go in.

00:32:09With a half dummy that time.

00:32:10Well tackled by Harding.

00:32:11The ball comes loose for Jonathan Davies.

00:32:13But that was good Welsh play.

00:32:14But all due to some misunderstanding in the England defence.

00:32:17But my word, the back row were there very quickly, Gareth Davies.

00:32:20Excellent work again.

00:32:21And I think Gareth Roberts has probably been the outstanding Welsh player this afternoon so far.

00:32:24And his presence there again created all sorts of problems for him.

00:32:28Harding with the feed.

00:32:30But not to the satisfaction of the French referee.

00:32:35And no love lost either between Robert Jones and Richard Harding.

00:32:41Jones not willing to give an inch as he stands.

00:32:44Almost contemptuous of the presence of the West Coast crumb half.

00:32:49The kick.

00:32:50The left-footed kick from Peter Williams.

00:32:55And we have felt quite nudged by Gareth Roberts that time.

00:32:59Hence the hilarity.

00:33:00The open side flanker from Cardiff.

00:33:02Just showing the oddball outside half that he was there at his shoulder.

00:33:08And a perhaps tempting cut for Wales today.

00:33:12Goes to the middle of the line-out.

00:33:17This time it's a penalty to England at the back.

00:33:20A little barging.

00:33:21A little bit of infringing.

00:33:26What a moment for this young fellow from Aberyman originally.

00:33:33Another kick from Peter Williams.

00:33:35Punishes the Welsh by some 16-17 metres.

00:33:43Wales calling for the shortened line this time.

00:33:47Four men into the line.

00:33:49And it's a quickly taken to Richie Collins.

00:33:51Collins sets it up on the halfway line.

00:33:53Up he comes to David Young.

00:33:55Young on the charge.

00:33:58Robert Jones saw the oncoming Gary Rees.

00:34:01And try to go just inside the Nottingham flanker.

00:34:05But away come England.

00:34:05Harding on the short side.

00:34:07He's got Underwood outside.

00:34:08Underwood fails to get hold of the ball.

00:34:09But it comes back to Harding.

00:34:13And a little bit of a forward pass that time.

00:34:24So down go the Welsh midway between the 22 and the halfway line.

00:34:29Robert Jones at the feed.

00:34:30There's a surge from the England scrum.

00:34:32Neat little pass from Robert Jones.

00:34:34Out he goes to Devereux.

00:34:35Doesn't decide to have a stab at it.

00:34:37Out to Adrian Hadley.

00:34:38Hadley up against Harrison.

00:34:39Hadley trying to get away.

00:34:40Up to Devereux.

00:34:41Devereux stays through on the halfway line.

00:34:43The trip ahead by John Devereux.

00:34:45It's a chase to the corner.

00:34:46Underwood is left there for England.

00:34:48Devereux is there too.

00:34:49But Underwood just about gets there.

00:34:51Superb support played by the Welsh on that fast ride.

00:34:55And full credit for Jim Devereux for that attempt.

00:35:01And we see, yes, the ball was just over the line.

00:35:03So quite a correct decision by Hoke.

00:35:06So the dropout from the 22.

00:35:10Certainly there seems to be a little bit more spirit in this Welsh performance

00:35:13in the last 10 minutes.

00:35:17And England having won the territorial advantage in the first 5 or 10 minutes.

00:35:21Now having to concede to the Welsh.

00:35:24And Wales in the lead 6 points to nil after 35 minutes of play in its first half.

00:35:30Phillips to Foe.

00:35:368 metres outside the 22.

00:35:41And a difficult day for both hookers.

00:35:45Slippery ball.

00:35:46Slippery conditions.

00:35:47But that time he goes for the back trying to find Paul Moriarty.

00:35:50But it's crappy ball.

00:35:51Goes back to the England side.

00:35:52Williams being chased there.

00:35:54And Harris by Paul Moriarty.

00:35:56And there's no lack of effort by the Welsh.

00:35:59Either in the threes or in the back row.

00:36:01And we've seen a couple of surging ones too from Buchanan and David Young.

00:36:08The limited line-out.

00:36:11Richard Collins joining.

00:36:13The last time Manon Phillips was confronted by this limited line-out.

00:36:16He flew straight to Collins.

00:36:19At this time it goes for Richard Moriarty.

00:36:21But it goes back to the England side.

00:36:22Lots more.

00:36:23Harding to Williams.

00:36:25Williams on to Winderbottom to Reid.

00:36:27As they set it up.

00:36:28The hooker, Moore, is in the movement as well.

00:36:30Hammond on the far side to Simms.

00:36:32Simms to Webb.

00:36:32Webb to Harrison.

00:36:34And that's the second time of asking that Harrison has dropped the vital part.

00:36:40Though not having the best of afternoons is Mike Harrison of Wakefield.

00:36:49Certainly England intent on stretching that Welsh defence.

00:36:52There were a couple of gaps there.

00:36:53It certainly looked like a dangerous move.

00:36:55And Harrison might have made more capital out of it.

00:36:59The handling and passing amongst the England backs has been rather disappointing.

00:37:02I think they've had a good outlook on it.

00:37:04And they haven't looked to move the ball.

00:37:05And here we see Redmond linking with his backs.

00:37:08Salmon again looks for the gap there.

00:37:11But a well-timed pass to Simms.

00:37:12Who again gives Harrison the opportunity on the outside via John Webb.

00:37:18There we see Harrison again with a nice pass out in front.

00:37:21Obviously looking at the man.

00:37:22And the ball goes down.

00:37:23So rather a lot of disappointment for the England captain.

00:37:28So there's another worrying sight for the Welsh camp.

00:37:31Robert Norster receiving treatment for that hamstring injury.

00:37:36And it's widely believed that he's carried something of a hamstring injury

00:37:40right throughout the season.

00:37:43But the magic spray from Tudor Jones seems to have done the job.

00:37:48Albeit temporarily as wells go down for the scum.

00:37:52Some six or seven metres in from the far touchline.

00:37:55It's whipped around.

00:37:57Difficult flight for scum haves.

00:37:59Whatever that happens.

00:38:01The pick-up eventually by Wells.

00:38:03As they try to get hold of the possession.

00:38:06And try to get it back somehow or other.

00:38:09All kinds of infringements going on there.

00:38:11Harder, untidy ball.

00:38:13But eventually it results in a penalty to Wales.

00:38:22Thorburn.

00:38:26That's a mighty long kick from Paul Thorburn.

00:38:30Once again, Harris not having the best of afternoons.

00:38:33Dropping that one as well.

00:38:34But it may have gone a trickle into touch anyway.

00:38:41Quite an inspiring captain this fellow.

00:38:45Having taken over the captaincy.

00:38:46His first loss was against Australia in the opening match of the World Cup.

00:38:50Wales have it.

00:38:51Robert Jones.

00:38:52Jonathan Davies.

00:38:54That's the problem once again.

00:38:57Paul Harrison took it well this time though.

00:39:00Outside is the end goal area.

00:39:03And in to touch.

00:39:08And Jonathan Davies doesn't seem to be very happy Martin.

00:39:10I'm not sure if it was the effect of the kick wasn't that good.

00:39:13But he does seem to be limping.

00:39:15And he's not looking as bubbly effervescent as himself.

00:39:19So Richie Collins carrying an injury.

00:39:21Garret Roberts.

00:39:23Forster.

00:39:23Sterling Bowen and Jonathan Davies.

00:39:25It's the limpy casualty list.

00:39:29Phillips with a throw.

00:39:30Collins takes well.

00:39:31Moriarty's superb pass out.

00:39:33Sterling Bowen couldn't quite get his hands to that one.

00:39:36And the ball comes back on the England side.

00:39:38But salvaged by Wales.

00:39:39But no advantage.

00:39:41So it's a scrum to England just outside the England 22.

00:39:47We now have 39 minutes of play in this first half.

00:39:51Wales just hanging on to that six points to nil lead.

00:39:55Try scored by Roberts.

00:39:57Garret Roberts.

00:39:58And converted by Paul Thorburn.

00:40:02Richards with a control.

00:40:04Harding waits.

00:40:08Pass back to Webb.

00:40:09And that's a huge spiralling kick from Webb.

00:40:11But Thorburn underneath it.

00:40:13It hasn't reached touch.

00:40:16But it's a healthy kick to England.

00:40:21Referee, Rene Urquhart, spotted an infringement offside was the decision.

00:40:32And so another opportunity for Paul Williams.

00:40:36Left footed.

00:40:38Is it a dozen fine touch.

00:40:40Back he comes to Thorburn.

00:40:42Thorburn.

00:40:44The best of spiralling kicks.

00:40:45But it's a very effective one.

00:40:48And returned with some interest.

00:40:51A limited line out called by England.

00:41:01Ball in the toe.

00:41:05Dooley goes up high.

00:41:06Goes back to the well side though.

00:41:07Falls comfortably for Robert Jones.

00:41:09Jonathan Davies.

00:41:10The grubber kick.

00:41:12Back there though is Webb the fullback.

00:41:13Read that one well.

00:41:14Positioned himself perfectly.

00:41:15Webb on the run.

00:41:16This is what England expects of their new fullback.

00:41:20Got over the advantage line.

00:41:22And give the oncoming forward some something to grasp on to.

00:41:31So this game.

00:41:33Not a classic by any stretch of the imagination.

00:41:40Robert Jones is 10 meters.

00:41:42Inside the England half.

00:41:45Jones with a feed.

00:41:47Davies.

00:41:47They miss out a man.

00:41:48Devereaux on the far side.

00:41:50Thorburn tries to break a track off.

00:41:52But suddenly robs of the ball.

00:41:54The ball goes loose on the far side.

00:41:55And into touch.

00:42:04The line out on the far side.

00:42:06And it'll be.

00:42:09More to go.

00:42:12Good kick.

00:42:14Now well into injury time.

00:42:16Minute and a half into injury time.

00:42:19It's England 0, Wales 6.

00:42:22Harding waits for the delivery from the forwards.

00:42:26Big deal of work and energy being spent in that direction.

00:42:29Dean Richards leading the England charge.

00:42:31Back it comes to Harding.

00:42:32That's a nice little kick from Harding.

00:42:34Thorburn rushing across.

00:42:35Positioning himself well.

00:42:36Takes the ball well.

00:42:37Gets his kick away.

00:42:38But it's not a clever one because it's straight to Webb.

00:42:41Webb on the counter and a crack to Rory Underwood.

00:42:43Underwood up against Diane Evans.

00:42:44Evans takes his man this time and does well.

00:42:47Underwood going inside his man.

00:42:49Evans was there.

00:42:50And indeed there were a couple of other potential Welsh tacklers as well.

00:42:55And the Welsh defence this afternoon, Martin, has been tremendous.

00:42:58I think Devereaux has been a great influence during the World Cup series.

00:43:01I think his influence is obviously coming through in the defensive side of the game.

00:43:06The ball on the 10 metre line.

00:43:08Throws the ball.

00:43:08It wasn't quite straight that one.

00:43:12And so in they go.

00:43:1315 metres or a scrum.

00:43:16And full credit to Gareth Davies too.

00:43:18This young, not so young really, but inexperienced front row.

00:43:22They've held up well so far.

00:43:23They've done a tremendous job.

00:43:24I feel the English scrum is probably becoming a little bit stronger.

00:43:27It's very ironic.

00:43:28I think we feel that we are six points ahead

00:43:31in the try resulting from a scrum on the England line.

00:43:34Rene Torquay pointing exactly as to where he wants his scrum to take place.

00:43:39Robert Jones, but that's the second one after complementing the Welsh scrum.

00:43:43Away come England.

00:43:44Winterbottom on the charge on the short side.

00:43:47Underwood is there.

00:43:47Haring whips it back.

00:43:49The try to whip it back.

00:43:50Chilcott.

00:43:51The bar's dropped forward.

00:43:54Feeds up for England.

00:43:55Up.

00:43:56Williams on the break.

00:43:57He's got the support.

00:43:58Winterbottom is there.

00:43:59The ever-present back row forward for England.

00:44:01Haring does well.

00:44:02This is good England play.

00:44:03The kick is from Salmon on the far side.

00:44:05The left foot.

00:44:06Hadley goes back for Wales.

00:44:08Taps the ball into touch.

00:44:10Or rather, flaxed it into touch, making absolutely no mistake for this.

00:44:13It's good England play.

00:44:15And that's the best concentration of England forward play that we've seen in this first half.

00:44:20As I was saying, Martin, they did manage to finish that.

00:44:23I do feel possibly England are becoming,

00:44:25beginning to become a bit stronger than Wales in this coming game.

00:44:28The shortened line-out.

00:44:30Deep inside.

00:44:31The Welsh tie's two.

00:44:32Small throws.

00:44:33Dooley tries to go through on the ball.

00:44:35There's a bit of blocking there.

00:44:36It's allowed.

00:44:37But the referee, Rene Urquhart,

00:44:40on the infringement.

00:44:41And it'll be a scrum.

00:44:44Dangerously close to the Welsh try line.

00:44:46Two hookers.

00:44:47Moore and Phipps.

00:44:49Rejoining their colleagues.

00:44:52Four minutes of injury time played in this game.

00:44:55Four minutes of injury time played in this first half.

00:45:03Urquhart not quite satisfied as for the location of the scrum.

00:45:11Robert Jones getting the Welsh alignment absolutely right.

00:45:15Two against the head already.

00:45:16And it's a free kick to England.

00:45:21Robert Jones, that time,

00:45:23is accused of not putting the ball in straight.

00:45:26Turning the ball on the put-in.

00:45:28England have it.

00:45:29Williams.

00:45:31Oh, let's just say that's the most undignified of drop goals

00:45:34that we've seen in this World Cup competition.

00:45:35Apart, that is, from a penalty attempt by Hugo Pocher

00:45:40in one of the earlier games.

00:45:41It really was a grass cutter.

00:45:49Jonathan Davies to restart.

00:45:51England putting a fair amount of pressure on the Welsh.

00:45:55In injury time at the end of this first half.

00:45:58Davies has dropped that.

00:45:58Dean Richards is underneath it for England.

00:46:02And another penalty.

00:46:04And the Welsh have been accused, quite justifiably,

00:46:07of being a little bit indisciplined.

00:46:09Certainly the penalty count against Canada was very, very embarrassing.

00:46:13And it's turning out to be that way against the English as well.

00:46:16John Webb will attempt this one.

00:46:18It's a bit of a difficult kick because

00:46:21he's got the support of this cross-field wind

00:46:23which will turn the ball into the post.

00:46:26But it's a distance of some 38 metres.

00:46:33So Webb, nothing to show so far on the scoreboard.

00:46:3840 points for England.

00:46:41His fourth cap for his country.

00:46:50John Webb.

00:46:51Taking a fair amount of time as he approaches the ball.

00:46:56Strikes it.

00:46:57But that, he's got just underneath the ball.

00:46:59And it's gone to the right.

00:47:02And Brevin Bowen, that time, rather shocking.

00:47:06Well, Brevin Bowen a little bit fortunate at the end of his...

00:47:09In the lead.

00:47:10Six points to nil at the beginning of the second half.

00:47:14The ball straight to Harding.

00:47:15Harding back it goes to the Bristol full-back, John Webb.

00:47:19Adrian Ahadni certainly went through at an alarming pace on John Webb that time.

00:47:24Must have seen the red flash going past him, John Webb,

00:47:26as he got the ball safely into touch.

00:47:34Alan Phillips on the 10-metre line.

00:47:38And the limited line-outs.

00:47:39Harding to the front post in the middle.

00:47:41The two Moriartys at the back.

00:47:43This is for Robert Jones.

00:47:45This is for Buchanan on the charge.

00:47:46A good charge to Alan Phillips.

00:47:47Slightly forward, that one.

00:47:51Sit down, they go for a scum.

00:47:5410 metres in from the near-side touchline.

00:47:59Kenneth Chilcott, for the pace before Wendell.

00:48:03Joins the England front row of Pearce and Moore.

00:48:06Harding on the short side.

00:48:07It's meant for Harrison to chase.

00:48:10It's gone out on the full.

00:48:11A bit of a wasted kick, that one, by Richard Harding of Bristol.

00:48:14And Alan Phillips, as well, this time keeping to an orthodox line-out.

00:48:24Right on the 10-metre line.

00:48:27Line-out signal from Richard Moriarty.

00:48:29Jumping at two for Alan Phillips.

00:48:31This one goes straight to the back.

00:48:32Collins, as well, to get up there.

00:48:33Get the height of this rather tall England back row.

00:48:36But England have this one.

00:48:38Harding to Webb.

00:48:41Harris.

00:48:42Harrison having a chance.

00:48:43Cuts back inside, Adrian Hadley.

00:48:46But England set it up on the 10-metre line.

00:48:48Harding to his Bristol colleague, Webb.

00:48:51Well, it's a kick going just about anywhere, but Paul Thorburn is underneath it.

00:48:55On the 22.

00:48:56The switch is declined to Iain Evans.

00:48:58The kick by Thorburn.

00:48:59He's still going.

00:49:00The cover kick.

00:49:01Ball goes loose.

00:49:02Williams tries to pick the ball up on that far side.

00:49:07And it's a pity there, Martin.

00:49:08I think that Thorburn didn't possibly use Iain Evans coming over from the blank side.

00:49:12Obviously, with his extra pace, he may have been able to create something.

00:49:17The put-in by Robert Jones.

00:49:21It's one of steadier scrum by the Welsh.

00:49:23They seem to be settling down a little bit, having given two against their head.

00:49:26Oh, Robert Jones, neatly done.

00:49:29As he goes over the gain line and gives a target for the oncoming forwards.

00:49:34This is Jonathan Davies.

00:49:36Harrison, going back for a foot England.

00:49:40Up against Hadley.

00:49:41Harrison.

00:49:41And Hadley.

00:49:43Harrison is away from Hadley.

00:49:45Thorburn.

00:49:46The fly hack from Sims.

00:49:49And then another fly hack from Paul Thorburn.

00:49:51A little bit scrappy to say.

00:49:53Jonathan Davies.

00:49:54The Welsh half-back.

00:49:55Davies is going to have a run this time.

00:50:00And the referee, Rennie Urquhart, has given England the penalty.

00:50:03Maybe it was offside, the original infringement.

00:50:07They allow the advantage to go.

00:50:13So, Rennie Urquhart marking the exact spot.

00:50:20And up comes John Webb to take the kick.

00:50:23And a little bit of untidiness in the play at the beginning of the second half.

00:50:27And that's a good kick by Webb.

00:50:42Right into the corner.

00:50:43Robert Jones does remarkably well to take it.

00:50:45Up towards the 22-metre line.

00:50:47And that's a superb delivery from Robert Jones.

00:50:49Oh, that was class play.

00:50:52Excellent play by Robert Jones.

00:50:53Either way, he took the ball initially.

00:50:55Plus that spiralling kick, which has obviously pushed England back to halfway.

00:50:59It could have quite a psychological effect on the game.

00:51:01So, back to the halfway line.

00:51:05And it'll be Brian Moore to throw for England.

00:51:08Rennie Urquhart asking for some separation.

00:51:10A bit of daylight between the two sets of forwards.

00:51:14Moriarty.

00:51:17And England suddenly rummaging around there and putting pressure on the Welsh.

00:51:21But Wales have it.

00:51:22Jonathan Davies, the switch route of Bevan Bowen.

00:51:24The legs seem to be OK to Richard Collins over the halfway line.

00:51:27He's got John Devereaux outside if he finds him.

00:51:29The delivery, the trip ahead by Robert Jones.

00:51:31Robert Jones up against Harding.

00:51:33Harding to Robert Jones.

00:51:34Robert Jones gets a good kick.

00:51:35Robert Jones has got a dramatic try for Wales after five minutes of play.

00:51:41That was sheer opportunism for the young scum half.

00:51:44That's his first World Cup try.

00:51:47And they don't come any better than that.

00:51:49Tremendous work there by the Welsh.

00:51:51We saw that Robert Jones running through.

00:51:54He's managed to get...

00:51:55No, here we have early stage.

00:51:56Richard Collins, again, ever-present.

00:51:58Supporting Bleryn Bowen and cut through after a switch move.

00:52:01Looking for support, but he hasn't got anybody on his shoulder.

00:52:05Excellent tackle there by Fullback Webb.

00:52:07But he's got the ability to make that ball available.

00:52:10And Robert Jones sensibly kicks it through, not wanting to risk his hand.

00:52:14And he's got the pace to beat Harding for the touchdown.

00:52:18And the conversion is there.

00:52:20Oh, indeed.

00:52:20It's been declined, gone to the left of the post.

00:52:24So Wales will have to be satisfied with that try from Robert Jones.

00:52:27But what a try it was.

00:52:28What great effort between two scum halves, Harding and Robert Jones.

00:52:32It really is a 22, 25, 30-meter split where the ball eventually landed.

00:52:39And Jones, just by a fingernail, I think, got the touchdown.

00:52:42Great joy, then, for the Welsh camp as Webb restarts.

00:52:46The ball comes to Moriarty.

00:52:47It's back to Jonathan Davies.

00:52:50Neatly around the kick and a touch, but that's not going to find its mark.

00:52:54Webb takes it on the halfway line.

00:52:57The high, up and under.

00:53:00Corbyn takes, calls for the mark, and it's given.

00:53:05Wales in the lead, 10 points to nil.

00:53:08And Tony Gray doesn't look at all pleased.

00:53:10He must be very worried about what may come in the latter stages of this game.

00:53:17The kick is a good one, quickly taken by England.

00:53:20Richards is there.

00:53:21And the support coming, that try from Gary Pearce.

00:53:27Down they'll go for the scum, just inside the Welsh half.

00:53:33Wales, 10 points to nil in the lead.

00:53:35Two tries scored, and that, of course, is important.

00:53:39The tries are scored, because when the eventual counting up is made,

00:53:43should it be a draw game, they become rather crucial.

00:53:48But it's a penalty for England.

00:53:52Peter Williams, left-footed.

00:53:55That's a good kick by Williams.

00:53:58Peter Williams, the young man who has a Welsh father, 28-year-old, outside half.

00:54:08So Wales beginning to shade, lines out.

00:54:13And much credit must be given to this man, Alan Preps, for the accuracy of his throwing in.

00:54:19Referee Reni Urquhage, confusing just about everybody at Stamford Park,

00:54:24by calling first for the line-up and then awarding to Scrum.

00:54:30Harding with a put-in on the 22-metre line.

00:54:33Here's the ball away to Williams, along to Sims.

00:54:36Sims, Underwood has come in as the extra man.

00:54:39And he's got it, with a knockaway.

00:54:41And it's a three-and-one, the number one.

00:54:43gets the ball away to Williams along to Sims. Sims underwood has come in as the

00:54:48extra man but the Welsh tackling is there. Devereaux as a vanguard of the Welsh

00:54:52defence absolutely superb taking one or probably two men at the same time but

00:54:57England drive forward and it's still John Devereaux there in the middle a superb

00:55:04defensive player he is he's not a bad attacking player either

00:55:09so a set scrum just outside the Welsh 22 Harding with a feed and the collapse of

00:55:23a scrum and Rene Urquhart having a good look to see exactly what went wrong with

00:55:29that scrum and having a word with Gary Pearce well a lecture to the most

00:55:39experienced English prop winning his 34th caps the record over for Franny

00:55:44Cotton England have it on a short side Harding the fly-hack is from Adrian

00:55:51Hadley back there goes Peter Williams Hadley is through on his man the fly-hack

00:55:57from Jonathan Davies across comes Kevin Sims for England and the bodies on the

00:56:05floor once again Peter Williams and a penalty to Wales and then against

00:56:11Harding for not releasing the ball after the tackle here we see John Webb

00:56:16covering back but Hadley comes through this tremendous pace on his physical

00:56:19power roughly flattened John Webb who obviously doesn't release the ball

00:56:27Jonathan Davies just on the halfway line

00:56:36and asking for Franny to get out of the way he wants a good sight of the

00:56:40touchline right footed

00:56:47so Jonathan Davies with that good kick and takes the pressure back down under

00:56:51England's try line so carrying a bit of an injury is Jonathan Davies

00:56:59more with a throw

00:57:05pressure on England all coming back on the Welsh side Richard Moriarty doing the

00:57:10cleaning up but referee Rene Orké not quite satisfied award a scrum 50

00:57:16meters in but it's from six or seven meters 38 really from the England try

00:57:23line Robert Jones quick channel one Moriarty Robert Jones but the England

00:57:29cover was there that time with Harrison coming over and Gary Rees good English

00:57:34defense as war prepares to throw the ball in once again ten and a half minutes

00:57:42gone in the second half also gets up high so to this Redman and again a line

00:57:47out infringement against the Welsh a bit of barging at the front so it'll be

00:57:52webbed to come up to take the kick

00:57:57so England have lived with that pressure and the fine kick came off the outside

00:58:03of the boot but well ticket taken quickly Moriarty back it goes to Robert

00:58:07Jones well done a bit of pressure bred in Bowen with a high Gary Owen you'll

00:58:12have to chase it Dean Richards is underneath it going goes in as the wall

00:58:17becomes available for England on the 10 meter line Harding has a good look to

00:58:20see what a Welsh cover is gives it to Reece Reece charging through North to

00:58:23take hold of him and England put on a forward drive on the short side went to

00:58:30bottom is up Harris from outside the window bottom couldn't get the ball

00:58:33away but he does eventually to Dean Richards Harrison up against Hadley

00:58:36again an opportunity of a reception interception that time and it's a

00:58:41penalty to or is it a penalty to England or to Wales penalty to England

00:58:51despite the fact that Peter wants window bottom disagreed with it he wanted the

00:58:54ball being played the advantage to be played I think it's a very important or

00:59:00critical stage now for the Welsh England team to have just got back into the game

00:59:03slightly and I know we ten points ahead but I think the next couple of minutes

00:59:06could be very very crucial indeed just noticing you see the quick quick line

00:59:11out which I think we're sort of even a bit more disciplined there they should

00:59:13have looked to steady it so we've taken a quick quick line up we've shown a lot

00:59:17of confidence I think at this stage in the game class we should have settled

00:59:20down settle down and make sure that we win that final ball I noticed earlier on

00:59:24with the England backhoes looking to break in in between midfield there was a

00:59:29little bit more room than there has been previously and I just hope that we

00:59:33do stick to our guns now and if we are we are we are playing a tight game the

00:59:38man injured that's Rob Andrew warming up should Peter Williams not be able to

00:59:42take any further part in this game certainly Peter Williams receiving a

00:59:49fair amount of attention especially when April Kate dissatisfied at the time

00:59:53taken up certainly a feature of these World Cup games so far has been the

00:59:59amount of time added on to the first and second half the rare occasion we've had

01:00:0512 minutes added on in one match Webb with a kick or England a smiling one

01:00:11doesn't reach touch be too happy with his touch fighting so far has webbed

01:00:16especially during this second half and the return kick is a good one not from

01:00:20Robert Jones takes the pressure off his forwards certainly Robert Jones playing

01:00:25one of his superb games for Wales but Dooley takes this one rather easily from

01:00:29the line at the ball goes back to Harding up to winter bottom winter bottom

01:00:32charging against the Welsh cover Collins is there takes his man to ground as

01:00:36Harding goes on the short side looks for his captain Harrison in no man's land

01:00:40really but across field and he's got the ball to be finds it goes between the

01:00:45Welsh cover that time a little bit of indiscipline by the England attack

01:00:48through Harding Harrison the captain rather had about five or six men just

01:00:53lining up for the ball and certainly took the wrong option that time yes it

01:00:57was a chance there for them to move the ball he created the space and he should

01:01:00have just released it for his for his back Robert Jones with the put in three

01:01:07meters outside the Welsh 22 now had 40 minutes of play in the second half Wales

01:01:13still in the lead ten points to nil Dr. Davis

01:01:19we're coming over that's covering and the cover kicked off for their foot in

01:01:26the touch he knew that he was outside his 22 that time and had to go for the

01:01:32rubber the Wales down in the England half once again

01:01:40Philips with the lineout calls the response from Moriarty and Robert

01:01:48Forster Forster goes up certainly seemed to be impeded at that time

01:01:57and indeed was spotted by referee René O'Keefe but he's reported to Scrum

01:02:00instead of a penalty quite on the 10 meter line

01:02:07Harding that's a better drive from the Welsh scrum getting on top of their game

01:02:12a little bit having conceded two against their head but this is Dean Richard up

01:02:15against Paul Moriarty Moriarty takes his man to the ground as England to wait for

01:02:22possession Harding and it comes to Harrison Harrison

01:02:25with a nice little kick straight to Robert Jones and that was excellent

01:02:31positioning by Robert Jones in the cover position as a scrum half just coming

01:02:35across reading the England captain's movements well on that short side

01:02:41four to throw in and certainly the game lost a little bit of its tempo as well as rushing

01:02:48through referee René O'Keefe rewarding the scrum 15 meters in from the near

01:02:57touchline just in the England half

01:03:02the control for Paul Moriarty Robert Jones Jonathan Davis well that's gone

01:03:09way way high in the Brisbane air anybody underneath it Moriarty

01:03:15it's a penalty offside against Wales

01:03:19really an opportunity last fair one I thought that Jonathan Davis would go for

01:03:24the corners just to take Wales into the 22 Peter Williams asking for the exact

01:03:31spot and they've put a kick into touch

01:03:39England back now inside the Welsh half a bit of a ding-dong struggle this between

01:03:43the two 22s I think even though England possibly are beginning to get the upper

01:03:49hand they don't seem to have much imagination behind Harding to use the

01:03:53blindside all the time there's no real penetration there

01:03:58that was meant for Moriarty we came back to Harding a bit of a wild one from the

01:04:02Bristol scrum half the knock on that drive by Ritchie Collins but the

01:04:06advantage is being played Harrison with a kick for Paul Sorbonne

01:04:12well that one by a whisker and the problem area this for the Welsh but it's quickly taken

01:04:18back it comes to Adrian Hadley but to no avail because they'll have to go back

01:04:22for the original line-out

01:04:28and it'll be a scrum 15 meters in from the far touchline and it's certainly a

01:04:35problem area for Wales we'll have a quick chat with Cara Ferris about that

01:04:41decision afterwards a strange one Harding the snap drive to come from

01:04:49England the control from Dean Richards and England hoping to catch Wales outside

01:04:54or at least collapse the scrum it's Harding the long gigantuan pass out of

01:04:59Webb going for the line back inside the fly hack is there it's still

01:05:04available but conventionally goes over the touchline for those of dangerous

01:05:08times for Wales but I think young Harding at scrum half has possibly lost that

01:05:13opportunity with men outside him the other interesting thing there that

01:05:17the fact that the scrum had gone down and ideally the referee should have

01:05:20really asked for the scrum to be taken again but again the incident that led to

01:05:25that I don't know I think was rather harsh on the Welsh team

01:05:29a defensive put in for Robert Jones

01:05:34the two props and all kinds of problems there at the front but Robert Jones has

01:05:39hiked to the ball back it comes to the young Swansea scrum half does well with

01:05:45the left foot his defensive kicking has been immaculate there he is urging his

01:05:51men on and all credit to the Welsh scrum there it was a very very solid platform

01:05:57for Robert Jones to be able to clear his line

01:06:02an injury to the experienced man on the front row and a foot he seems to be okay

01:06:08more with the so limited line out for England Harding Moriarty going through

01:06:14Redmond tries to clean up the friction between Redmond and Moriarty nothing

01:06:18serious and one must say yes indeed a bit of a headache for Marty Green the

01:06:25England coach

01:06:29and the possession that England has had they've tended to squander mainly at

01:06:35half-back okay not satisfied with a put in now we are now midway into the second

01:06:43half Wales still in the lead ten points to nil and yet another penalty that's

01:06:48twelve against Wales and Robert Jones disputing that particular penalty so

01:06:57what's the decision of Mike Harrison there's a confusion in the England ranks

01:07:03here they go it's gonna be an up-and-under Harding and it's a terrible

01:07:07up-and-under it's gone behind his oncoming forward well really an

01:07:14opportunity wasted and we must say Gareth Davies that Harding is not having

01:07:20the best of games no that's why his play has really gone from bad to worse in the last

01:07:24ten minutes it's been quite quite quite badly Wales waiting for the possession

01:07:30a little bit of indiscipline that time Jonathan Davies the knock on the pick up

01:07:35by Robert Jones but the whistle has gone from referee Rennie Urquhart and Wales

01:07:41will do well to keep their concentration level at its highest peak states like

01:07:45that might allow the English to come back into this game if I capable of

01:07:50doing it with their excellent wings Harrison and Underwood

01:07:56this time it's a penalty against Harding no indeed penalty to England

01:08:03Harding goes away on that far side to Rory Underwood back inside it comes to

01:08:08Jonathan Davies eventually certainly the signals of Rennie Urquhart are very very

01:08:12confusing indeed he pointed towards England to say that they were being

01:08:16penalized and then awarded them the penalty it's a dangerous time for Wales

01:08:23Welsh try line under siege

01:08:27Moore with a throw up they go but the ball is taken by Gareth Roberts

01:08:31Wales drive through trying to get the platform possession for Robert Jones to

01:08:35clear as the young Swansea's come halfway tried to catch England offside

01:08:39back it goes to the deep south side half Jonathan Davies the kick to touch

01:08:44doesn't find his mark comes to Underwood nearly dropped it Underwood again

01:08:49looking for work is left a wing

01:08:54terrible and Hadley fly hat through

01:08:56Webb is back there gets up neatly

01:08:58superb play by the whistle pull back he's still away

01:09:02but runs back in a host of Welsh shirts as Wales drive on a halfway line looking for

01:09:07this possession and suddenly it's a whistle and suddenly yet again a penalty

01:09:12against Wales perhaps the 13th I believe that they've conceded

01:09:19so up comes Peter Williams on the outside half

01:09:31left-footed in the touch safely not a great distance but an effective kick

01:09:39we're also holding on to the ten points in the lead after 23 minutes of play in

01:09:45the second half

01:09:50a limited line-out

01:09:54a flip

01:09:56I think you'll love to see where the Cardiff man is

01:09:58but now Wales tending to go away from Robert Sawster since he's carrying that injury in the line-out

01:10:03this is Redburn the 22 year old man from Bath on the charge

01:10:07and a great ironic cheer goes around Ballymore Park Wales have got a penalty

01:10:15Corbyn

01:10:19offside was the decision

01:10:21as Corbyn spirals one down past the trees at Ballymore Park down towards the England half

01:10:27and it'll be a line-out a couple of metres inside England's territory

01:10:31but Wade comes for England quickly taken

01:10:33Salmon to Simms

01:10:35Simms a little chip ahead is Redburn

01:10:37Harrison if he gets the pound this could be dangerous

01:10:39Jonathan Davies is back there for Wales

01:10:41tackled almost without the ball that time

01:10:45and the penalty to Wales

01:10:47another penalty to Wales

01:10:51Jonathan Davies

01:10:53none to please the attention that he got from Mike Harris

01:10:55and here we see Harrison putting pressure on the Welsh defence

01:10:57and Jonathan Davies covering back as he always tends to do

01:10:59picks up the ball excellently

01:11:01and then Harrison as you can see has been very high there

01:11:03and it's a correct decision by Rennie Hooker

01:11:09another penalty to Wales

01:11:11Corbyn

01:11:13slights that one a little

01:11:15Harrison to Webb

01:11:17Webb with a dreadful forward pass in midfield

01:11:21and England

01:11:23lapsing in concentration

01:11:25the heads going down and not only on the field

01:11:27but also in the sand

01:11:29some woeful errors being made

01:11:31despite the fact that they've gained

01:11:33plentiful possession but on that far side

01:11:35we have Jim Fleming

01:11:37the Scots referee

01:11:39with his flag up

01:11:41and of course the touch judges

01:11:43can only come where they've spotted

01:11:45illegal or

01:11:47off play

01:11:49so the decision

01:11:51will be explained to both captains

01:11:53the impeccable French have no doubt

01:11:59I think

01:12:01it was a case Martin that England took

01:12:03the quick throw in which obviously wasn't on the right spot

01:12:05so now Wales presumably have got the option

01:12:07of putting the ball into the scrum

01:12:09and Wales

01:12:11taking their time of taking up that option

01:12:13but it's going to be a scrum

01:12:1515 metres in

01:12:17on the far touchline

01:12:19Robert Jones not satisfied with the

01:12:21positioning

01:12:23of Gary Pearce's feet

01:12:27back it goes on the Welsh side

01:12:29a pick up by Moriarty

01:12:31doesn't find much room there

01:12:33England's cover there

01:12:35England have the ball

01:12:37Harrison up against Adrian Hadley again

01:12:39Hadley gets hold of his man

01:12:41back inside it comes, the Welsh cover is there

01:12:43the ball still available, Jonathan Davies

01:12:45thinking about a fly hat

01:12:49Hadley getting his man

01:12:51that time

01:12:55I'd have thought that Martin Wales would be quite happy to see

01:12:57England move the ball, they don't seem to be making any

01:12:59headway at all

01:13:01Robert Jones, the drive coming from

01:13:03the Welsh

01:13:05Jonathan Davies

01:13:07that's a bit of a kick

01:13:09from Jonathan Davies, that's going to stretch Webb

01:13:11all across field, Iain Evans going up very quickly

01:13:13on the England full-back, this is Rory Underwood

01:13:15I saw a bit of interplay between Webb

01:13:17and Underwood on that far side

01:13:19but it comes to nothing and that's been the story

01:13:21of England, they've

01:13:23really tried to stretch this Welsh defence

01:13:25but haven't been able to

01:13:27find the holes

01:13:29and again we saw there

01:13:31the excellent defensive work, I know we've been on about it

01:13:33all afternoon, the excellent defensive work of

01:13:35John Devereaux

01:13:37Wales go rushing through, Dean Richards does well for England

01:13:39though, to recover

01:13:41Wales waiting for the possession

01:13:43it is not

01:13:45going to come out of there, says Remy Urquhart

01:13:47and so they go down

01:13:49for another scrum

01:13:5115 metres in from the far touchline

01:13:55Surprise

01:13:57for winning this particular match

01:13:59I don't have to remind you

01:14:01it's a feast against the All Blacks

01:14:05Robert Jones

01:14:07the box kick is meant for Iain Evans to chase

01:14:09Underwood is back there

01:14:11and Underwood dropping the ball

01:14:13at the vital moment, right in the corner

01:14:17so everything just about going right for Wales

01:14:19at this moment

01:14:21and everything going wrong for England

01:14:23but there are still

01:14:25some 30 minutes of actual time

01:14:27left with time added on for injuries

01:14:29and there's not a great deal in it

01:14:31England could well break out

01:14:37Phillips with a throw to the back

01:14:39it's taken by Moriarty

01:14:41Wales looking for

01:14:43a clean possession, it's Gareth Roberts

01:14:45trying to worm his way through

01:14:47there's a splash of water, shows you the damp

01:14:49conditions that these players have been

01:14:51experiencing throughout the afternoon

01:14:53that's a rather quizzical decision

01:14:55from Rennie, OK

01:14:57anything wrong with that?

01:14:59Harding waits

01:15:01trying to catch

01:15:03the most covered off side

01:15:05there's the attempted breakout

01:15:07from Adrian Hadley

01:15:09a super pick up by Hadley

01:15:11but a penalty to England

01:15:13once again

01:15:19and pointing to the Welsh defender

01:15:21offender rather

01:15:27rather strange decision

01:15:29from Rennie, OK this afternoon

01:15:31that's a fine kick

01:15:33which takes play to

01:15:356 or 7 metres

01:15:37on the halfway line

01:15:39Wales still in the lead

01:15:41the two tries called by Robert Jones

01:15:43and Gareth Roberts

01:15:45one converted by Paul Thornton

01:15:51Alan Phillips

01:15:53having a slight difficulty

01:15:55hearing the signal

01:15:57went for Moriarty but Richards takes it

01:15:59a bit of misunderstanding that time

01:16:01and Phillips may well have misread the call

01:16:05Wales

01:16:07having to do a bit of defensive work

01:16:09just inside their own heart

01:16:11and a penalty once again

01:16:13and to the loose

01:16:15Well certainly

01:16:17that type

01:16:19of collapse under the field

01:16:21does not happen very often

01:16:23when the All Blacks play

01:16:25they tend to stay up on their feet

01:16:27and what we've really seen

01:16:29this afternoon is a classic

01:16:31competition between two northern hemisphere

01:16:33countries to all be different

01:16:35against the All Blacks should Wales

01:16:37or England get through

01:16:39The other worrying thing Martin if Wales do get through

01:16:41is the number of penalties we've conceded this afternoon

01:16:43and when you consider the

01:16:45player, the capability of Grant Fox

01:16:47a player for New Zealand

01:16:49he could punish Wales quite severely

01:16:51if we do get through

01:16:53Alan Phillips

01:16:55waiting this time

01:16:57hearing the

01:16:59absolute right call by again a single possession

01:17:01from the line-out famous

01:17:03classic chance for Simms

01:17:05Simms is that a penalty

01:17:07well it might well have been given that one

01:17:09before an intentional knock-on

01:17:11It's Redmond leading the England

01:17:13charge just outside the

01:17:15Welsh 22

01:17:17Wales searching for the ball but it won't come out of there

01:17:19because the whistle's gone from Rennie Urquhart

01:17:21and the award's for Simms

01:17:27Rather subdued at

01:17:29Ballet Mall Park we've really not had

01:17:31the kind of excitement

01:17:33that could be generated by some of the games

01:17:35in this World Cup competition

01:17:37which tended to be a rather dour event

01:17:39albeit determined

01:17:41On the far side it's

01:17:43Underwood, Underwood up against Iain Evans

01:17:45the Kneffey man gets the

01:17:47lesser man

01:17:49No good defensive work by

01:17:51Iain Evans, the hold of the

01:17:53English fire

01:17:57Yet

01:17:59another injury and great work

01:18:01there by Iain Evans because Underwood was really travelling

01:18:03at speed and he had quite a substantial

01:18:05amount of room outside Iain Evans but the

01:18:07Kneffey right winger did very very well to hold him

01:18:09and obviously Underwood has conceded the penalty

01:18:11Here we see England

01:18:13with the pitchers picking up and

01:18:15giving to Harding and

01:18:17we see Underwood within 15 yards to try and go outside

01:18:19Iain Evans but an excellent defensive work

01:18:21by him

01:18:23I can't really understand why the penalty was given

01:18:27Unfortunately that's

01:18:29been a feature of the refereeing at Ballet Mall Park

01:18:31as some of the decisions

01:18:33have been quizzical to say the least

01:18:35I think also the feature

01:18:37Martin is the defensive work of the

01:18:39Welsh, England have probably won

01:18:41a dominated possession this afternoon

01:18:43certainly in line-out and certainly loose play

01:18:45but an excellent defensive

01:18:47work allied to some poor

01:18:49decision making by the England bats especially the

01:18:51half-backs

01:18:53Bourbon with a kick

01:18:55and a crazy

01:18:57neatly in the touch on that

01:18:59far side midway between the 22

01:19:01and the halfway line

01:19:0332 minutes of play

01:19:05Wales 10, England 0

01:19:07Ball comes back to Robert Jones

01:19:09to Jonathan Davies, are we going to see the Welsh three-quarters

01:19:11in flight? This is John Devereaux

01:19:13Devereux to Hadley up against Harrison

01:19:15Hadley with a kick down towards

01:19:17Webb, he's taken by Paul Moriarty

01:19:19the fronty man tries to turn

01:19:21the bristle man around but England have it

01:19:23Harrison with a stone-hard pass, out he goes to

01:19:25Simms on the far side to Jamie Salmon

01:19:27to Underwood, Underwood up against Iain Evans

01:19:29once again and Underwood is away

01:19:31from Iain Evans, Underwood on the far side

01:19:33back inside to the underwinger, Harrison

01:19:35Harrison is half-tackled just inside

01:19:37the Welsh 22, good play by

01:19:39the England wings and it's a penalty to England

01:19:41high tackle and it's been registered

01:19:43by Rene Urquhart

01:19:45but certainly Underwood

01:19:47getting away from Iain Evans that time

01:19:49and causing all kinds of problems for the Welsh defence

01:19:51and that's certain liven things

01:19:53that's here at Ballymore and here we see

01:19:55Underwood having broken away from Iain Evans

01:19:57looks inside for the support

01:19:59Mike Harrison coming into the play shortly

01:20:01a rather dangerous tackle

01:20:03there by Dick Moriarty which has resulted

01:20:05in the England penalty

01:20:0938 minutes to go, I think

01:20:11we've got to still realise, the Welsh team have got to realise

01:20:13that there are dangerous players in the England team

01:20:15provided they can be used properly

01:20:17well away to our right

01:20:19we can see Robert Morster

01:20:21leaving the field with the Welsh Physiotherapist

01:20:23there they are, Robert Morster

01:20:25doesn't look as if he can

01:20:27see this game through

01:20:29and so the Welsh replacement

01:20:31Neil Richards

01:20:33great moment for him

01:20:37Neil Richards of Neats

01:20:39coming on, the play going on on the far side

01:20:41as England go rummaging through

01:20:43looking for the possession

01:20:45but denied possession

01:20:47as we still await

01:20:49for Wales to feel the full compliment of players on this field

01:20:57and the delay

01:20:59actually is because Robert

01:21:01Morster is having a word with the Australian

01:21:03Medical Doctor

01:21:05he has to be passed unfit

01:21:07there's the signal which means

01:21:09that Neil Richards once

01:21:11he's noticed by Rene Urquet

01:21:13will be allowed to take off to the field

01:21:15Harding

01:21:19up to Webb

01:21:21well marshalled that time by Paul Corbyn

01:21:23and John Devereaux, the pucky comes

01:21:25on the England side, Harrison

01:21:27and he more or less

01:21:29drove into Alan Phillips

01:21:31I think it was that time

01:21:33and that again

01:21:35no need, it was Anthony Buchanan

01:21:37who drove into the man

01:21:39from West Dunkin Light and that was deemed to be

01:21:41a dangerous tackle

01:21:43that seemed quite a solid tackle there from Buchanan

01:21:45I think reflected in the anger that Robert Jones

01:21:47showed, a fine tackle as far as I was

01:21:49concerned and it's nice really

01:21:51to see some of the forwards tackling

01:21:53and here we see Harrison trying to break infield

01:21:55he's got a little bit of room to move

01:21:57but there we see Buchanan hitting him with the shoulder

01:21:59which is I think a legal tackle

01:22:01as I was saying, it's nice to see the

01:22:03forwards getting about and tackling and running

01:22:05we've seen Buchanan and David Young

01:22:07in their first game

01:22:09having the ball in their hands and having the confidence

01:22:11to do something with it

01:22:13Neil Richards' lead is on

01:22:15but certainly the

01:22:17decision

01:22:19of their tackle

01:22:21somewhat controversial

01:22:23it looked a fair shoulder charge

01:22:25but Mike Harrison, the England wing

01:22:27simply felt the weight

01:22:29of the tenacity prop Anthony Buchanan

01:22:35smelling salt

01:22:37bringing him around

01:22:39as you said Martin, I think he did feel the

01:22:41effect of it but at the end of the day

01:22:43it was a fair challenge, a very hard

01:22:45challenge but a fair one

01:22:47and of course

01:22:49an excellent opportunity with

01:22:51four minutes to go for John

01:22:53Webb to get England on

01:22:55to the scoreboard

01:22:57not a difficult

01:22:59kick as we saw

01:23:01in the first half, Paul Corbin

01:23:03missed one from a similar distance

01:23:05and of course at this vital stage

01:23:07of the competition, there is no such

01:23:09thing as an easy kick

01:23:13nothing to show

01:23:15so far

01:23:1723 metres

01:23:19it's more or less

01:23:21a direct shot

01:23:25Webb

01:23:27safely there, England are on

01:23:29to the scoreboard

01:23:31and we approach

01:23:33the 36th minute of this

01:23:35second half

01:23:39ten points to three

01:23:41and really everything to play for

01:23:43but it must be said

01:23:45that the tempo of this match

01:23:47is way

01:23:49way removed from the tempo

01:23:51of the All Blacks player

01:23:53certainly

01:23:55poor in comparison Martin to the game

01:23:57witnessed yesterday, Australia and Ireland

01:23:59which wasn't given a great deal of credit

01:24:01played much quicker pace than we've seen

01:24:03all them to restart

01:24:07Webb

01:24:09fresh from his penalty success

01:24:11and a good kick

01:24:13that time by Webb, clearing his line

01:24:15from 35 metres

01:24:17the term being expressed

01:24:19by the England camp

01:24:21ten points in it though

01:24:23and plenty of time to play

01:24:25we're now into the 37th minute

01:24:27of the second half and of course

01:24:29there'll be a fair amount of time added on for injuries

01:24:33Phillips with a throw

01:24:35Moriarty, tremendous jump

01:24:37by the Swansea man

01:24:39but not allowed

01:24:41the throw in not straight

01:24:43the option to England

01:24:45down they go for a scrum

01:24:47one must credit

01:24:49this Welsh front row

01:24:51a highly controversial and experimental

01:24:53selection, they stuck to their task

01:24:55but England have this one

01:24:57as the Welsh drive across field

01:24:59Moriarty with a pick up, runs into Rees

01:25:03and a little bit of aggravation

01:25:05from Hugh Richards

01:25:07going through on

01:25:09Richards on Richards really

01:25:11on Dean Richards

01:25:13showing

01:25:15the lock

01:25:17from Leicester

01:25:19as he was on the field

01:25:23and the option to be given

01:25:25on the free kick to England once again

01:25:27and this will be a worry

01:25:29a bit of indiscipline, a little bit of back chat

01:25:31to Rene Urquet and away come England again

01:25:33set up by Winterbottom

01:25:35down onto the deck

01:25:37it comes from Moore, Rees charges

01:25:39on for England as well, Harding

01:25:41waits for the possession, up to Williams

01:25:43that's going to go for the corner, that's going to bring

01:25:45pressure onto the Welsh, Ian Evans giving

01:25:47chase, and England

01:25:49beginning to sense that they may be able

01:25:51to pull this one out of the bag, and I think they've

01:25:53decided on a tighter approach Martin

01:25:55I think it may be a little bit late for them but they certainly

01:25:57decided to play a tighter game with the ball

01:25:59being driven to the corner

01:26:01this is Alan Phillips

01:26:03the injured party

01:26:05and we're

01:26:07quickly running out of people

01:26:09who've not been injured in this game at a Welsh camp

01:26:13and I'm sort of absolutely delighted of course

01:26:15that he's in, back into the Welsh reckoning

01:26:17having been called out here

01:26:19having waited five years for a recall

01:26:21five is his time

01:26:23you did compliment the Welsh

01:26:25front row earlier on and I think all credit

01:26:27equally to the three of them but possibly

01:26:29a special mention to Alan, I think his presence

01:26:31with the young lads who've come in, I'd have thought

01:26:33has been very, very influential in this

01:26:35eclipse this afternoon

01:26:37Tony Gray flanked by Mark Titley and

01:26:39Kevin Hopkins

01:26:43so this is a worrying time

01:26:45for Wales as we go

01:26:47into injury

01:26:49time, albeit by 20 seconds

01:26:53and then it'll depend on the watch

01:26:55of Rennie Urquhart, there have been several stoppages

01:26:57Phillips throws, goes back

01:26:59on the Welsh side, Robert Jones

01:27:01into touch, who's touched in flight as well

01:27:03Alan Phillips goes running through as well

01:27:07but it'll be an England throw once again

01:27:09and they've got the main target men

01:27:13Dean Richards at the back and Redman

01:27:15at the front, Richards

01:27:17to Redman on the peel

01:27:19England setting it up, just inside

01:27:21the Welsh 22

01:27:23Reitz sending a hand there

01:27:25so too has Chilcot the replacement

01:27:27a little bit of indecision once again, that could be costly

01:27:29for England, that was

01:27:31good ball, well won by the forwards

01:27:33Wales trying to salvage

01:27:35something for it, away goes

01:27:37Salmon to Harding

01:27:39Harding on the far side

01:27:41trying to get the ball, a good pick up by Richie Collins

01:27:43he laid back at the Welsh drive in

01:27:45and set it up for the defensive kick for Robert Jones

01:27:51well that's the penalty

01:27:53and the explanation from

01:27:55Rene Urquhart, certainly mystifying

01:27:57everybody but it certainly is a penalty

01:27:59to Wales

01:28:01I thought he was suggesting there that Robert Jones had knocked on

01:28:03and Robert had actually touched the ball

01:28:05but yes, I think his signals have been rather mystifying

01:28:07this afternoon, the way things have been going

01:28:09it wouldn't have surprised any of us

01:28:11Paul Thorburn with the kick from the 22

01:28:13all the way down to Rory Underwood

01:28:15and England now being forced to counter attack

01:28:17from anywhere on the field if they're going to stay alive

01:28:19in a World Cup competition

01:28:21Harrison up against Hadley

01:28:23two men outside, he decides to go

01:28:25and then goes on his own, up against Hadley

01:28:27and that surely was a mistake by the England

01:28:29captain, two men outside and going

01:28:31rather selfishly on his own

01:28:33I think that reflects

01:28:35the play of the England

01:28:37backs today, I think first of all they played a completely

01:28:39wrong game because they should

01:28:41have taken Wales up more

01:28:43up front I feel, and the decision making

01:28:45behind has been dreadful

01:28:47the throw to the middle, Dooley

01:28:49palms down but it's bad ball for Harding

01:28:51the fifth again is a penalty

01:28:53to England

01:28:55against Wales

01:28:57Harding

01:28:59quickly taken up the

01:29:01east of Nottingham, the Nottingham man

01:29:03goes down towards the Welsh 22

01:29:05and a penalty, well it's becoming a succession

01:29:07rather ridiculous this match at the moment

01:29:09the decisions

01:29:11of René Urquet are often confusing

01:29:13but this circuit of

01:29:15penalties

01:29:17giving the game

01:29:19intermittent quality

01:29:23Corbyn

01:29:25with a kick into touch, we are well

01:29:27into injury time, two and a half minutes

01:29:29of injury time played, Wales still

01:29:31leading ten points to three

01:29:33and surely now they can look

01:29:35forward to their next Brisbane game

01:29:37David Young

01:29:39wearing the scars of battle

01:29:41the ball to the

01:29:43back of the liner, England

01:29:45last desperate attack may be, Sims

01:29:47missed out a man, to Webb, Underwood on the far

01:29:49side, has a dink, Guyon-Evans has

01:29:51hold his man this time

01:29:53no release of the ball as yet

01:29:55now it comes out

01:29:57and another with a friction

01:30:01well the advantage was paid and back they'll come
