Nominally an English loss to Wales makes me unhappy, but today's loss is galling for a different reason. I respect Johnathan Kaplan and Alain Roland above all other international quality referees, but Kaplan may as well have been wearing Red today. England were penalised repeatedly, sometimes fairly, oftentimes not, for anything and everything, whilst every infringement by a welshman went unnoticed.

I wont argue the second sin-binning, but the first was unbelievably harsh given the game state.  England played spectactularly well given all the negatives I had seen and heard in the build-up from the autumn and the first match of the tournament and didnt deserve to a frankly poor welsh display.

Also, Batman is a better film than either of the new ones, and Jack Nicholson is a better Joker than Heath Ledger, just.
