Thank you.
Apologies if I sound cocky. I'm in Oxford tonight, very drunk and I just watched the game amongst an English stag do.
They were great to talk to and very humble.
It's just I've never ever seen anything like this in mu life before. In some ways it eclipse the 3 grand slams.

100, many of your posts are antagonistic...but you'll find the most of England fans on here are honest.
Wales were men v boys today. It hurts...but hopefully a big defeat like that makes you stronger

I feel jealous of all the people at the MS stadium. I would dearly love to be part of a stadium atmosphere like that not to mention a similar result. The people who went to the game were part of something extraordinary today and they played a part in that.

Will always remember 1995.
You always savour your victories over your main rivals and you always feel the hurt from the losses. But unless you had those losses, the team wouldn't be your main rival. To enjoy the sunshine you have to have experienced the rain.

Beautifully phrased, kiakahaaotearoa.
As for stadium atmosphere, I was there in Nov 2004 when we really did blow a chance to beat you (you won by a point). That was the best atmosphere of any rugby match I've been to.

I went to all 5 Wales matches this campaign and have seen them getting back the confidence. Never really worried today - what a game what a crowd what a team!

Re: I've waited my whole life to see this...
I do think this is the most satisfactory tournament win I've witnessed. It doesn't seem real though. Just typical that the only game I got to see in Wales this year, we lost (watched France in Inverness and the last three in the Middle East).
I honestly thought England would win the tournament and maybe the England v Italy game did us a massive favour, as it probably lifted us a bit and planted a slight seed of doubt into England's mindset. Some players like Mikey Phillips and Dr Roberts get a lot of criticism on here, but their defensive effort was great and it was a great shift by our pack. Dan Biggar is getting better everytime he pulls on the shirt and I don't think there is anything I can say about Halfpenny that hasn't been said. All the boys did well today though and it's important we start taking this 6 Nations form into the AI's etc.

Congrats to all my welsh compatriates, but I can't help feeling for England fans, another slam cruelly taken away at the final hurdle.
Just want to point out England contributed to one of the most intense and wild first halfs of the year, and have to feel for Robshaw and Cole who amazingly stood out in such a one sided game!!!

Robshaw certainly did. He has gone up in my estimation as a player. I don't agree with you on Cole, but that's just my personal opinion.

Maybe not in the scrum but around the park he was a nightmare for Wales, first 50 mins Robshaw and Cole kept England in the game IMHO

Not at all. Two years in a row I've watched the fixture in England, surrounded by very nice English supporters and a good fair debate. If England had won I would have heaped praise on them. You know nothing about me in real life.
Bluesman you're a bit of a joke here. You're like Bradley Walsh's character in Mike Bassett England manager. You'll side with anyone.
You don't have to be humble when you win well. It's been a long time since we've won in a BIG way. I'm merely just counter balancing the pre match banter of this forum and the Cyril's of this world etc..
We've been stuffed badly in the past. It's nice to enjoy a change.

Brian Moore regularly changes size depending on his moisture content.

No he's the short fat English one, the small squeeky one is probably Jonathan Davies (Jiffy).

Did you see that smile! Almost child like. The other two looked like dodgy stock traders about to be sentenced.
I still despise Woodward because of the lions so that moment was pretty sweet.

The smile on his face was very very very funny!
Inverdale was his usual ass of a self "well done Wales but lets talk about where England go from here"
Woodward is okay but called the game entirely wrong. I remember him suggesting the English subs were better than the welsh ones and could win England the game in the last ten. Not quite however Care and Hartley did a good job of losing it in the 55th minute.
Gusgott is a good lad.

Think I'd drop Powell from that list. Think he may have played his final game for Wales. Think I read that Sale haven't even offered him a new deal yet.
