Current games aren't a matter of being "over the long term": the current Welsh squad is stronger than that of England so for us to do so well in the first half yet throw away the second indicates a serious problem with discipline.

Re: Rugby Union
True den, but still get annoyed when teams seem to play for penalties rather than tries.
I did say that if Italy took it seriously they could win a tournament.

The current Welsh team is stronger than the English, that's why the game showed how much we had slipped.

Thanks for clarifying, just wondered what context you meant a team like England, as in multi world cup finalists or as in losing to England b.

Clarification is needed considering you seem to have difficulty with the difference between a team and a squad.
