Why Wales have cause for hope in Paris

Cardiff – I don’t think England’s rugby players know how lucky they are sometimes.
Sure they’ve been rightly pilloried for that insipid performance against Italy, but they ought to pay their £5.10 and spend some time on this side of the Severn Bridge toll-booths.
Then they’d know exactly what criticism feels like when you live in an oval-shaped goldfish bowl.
It’s interesting to see how quickly a team dubbed by some as potential Grand Slammers before the opener against Ireland can attract so much public flak two games later. It’s either feast or famine when it comes to the national team - the middle line is rarely popular.
Wales 27-18 England
