Did the ref make a rod for his own back by giving 2 yellows so soon.

I'm not sure if that second half was England going off the boil or Wales playing a lot better. Probably a bit of both.

Well at least it wasn’t 50 points. Second half was better and more what I’d anticipated. The most frustrating thing thing for me was the few chances Wales had in the first half got wasted by stupid penalties or poor basic set piece skills. To try to find some positives - the backs looked OK in attack when they actually got some ball (Grady has to start next week) and the scrums looked better after the props were changed.

To be honest it was hard to judge England either way as they didn’t have to do too much for their points.

He didn’t have too much choice, could maybe have not given the second I guess.

Yes, that was the moment referred to earlier in the thread that promoted the commentator's quip about Scotland waxing and waning.

Worst Scotland performance for a long time, but then they rarely play well in their change strip, shame the old tradition of the home team changing their strip seems to have gone by the wayside.
As for the England v Wales game, I was trying to watch it on catch up but ITV/STV seem to want to make it nigh on impossible.
Can't watch it on ITV X in Scotland as it's not available, but STV still haven't uploaded it to STV Player as of 23:00 on Saturday night. The highlights are there but not the full match.
Eventually had to open a new ITV X account and use a random English postcode in order to watch it.
At least there were no in game ads at scrum time though.
Were there ads in game on the live show?

To your final question, not that I noticed but I got bored when it was about 32-0.
Regarding "change strips". I always thought they were regarded as "away strips" and the home team could choose. I could be wrong.

Yes, one in each half I think, might have been two in the 2nd half.
