I hope Tom Willis gets a  chance  to play; it's time he had his chance to shine.

Never mind - after the EAs buff him up and save his playing career he will shine forever in Borthwick's eyes (unless Billy takes umbridge).

Nice to see the boys still have a Whatsapp group and are looking out for each other https://twitter.com/d_jrobson/status/1687162702236434436?s=46

Reading that kind of made me feel like reading about Wasps when they were still alive and kicking.

No sign of Jack.

Given those involved in the Prem final on 27 May weren't considered (except Malins) and Jack played in the Top14 final 3 weeks later I suspect that is the reason.

Tom of course played in the semi final a week before that, but Jack's place in the squad should be firmly inked in by now, whereas Tom needs the opportunity to prove that he should be there with his brother.

We at Chez Wonky will not be able to see anything on Amazon, mainly because   we  don't contribute  to it.  But I think we can see a repeat on 'Radio Look-you'  at 8.00 pm under Rygbi - Croeso/Loegre (probably with a Welsh commentary!).  Depends on the quality of the match.

Shame because Amazon coverage is far superior. Unfortunately all indications are the rugby is vaguely the same.

I must admit I hadn?t even realised these games were taking place - which is alarming. I won?t be watching but I?m surprised I wasn?t aware.

I haven't got anything else on so I'll probably watch out of ideal curiosity. I don't have high expectations for the game, a friendly between two teams who will have over achieved if they get to the quarter finals is hardly likely to set the heart racing.

I'll be watching as Prime video is part of my Sky sub and I want to see how Tom Willis gets on.. I don't subscribe to Sky sports or BT, so that's my rugby at the moment.

Information for all: Prime video appear to be offering a free 30 day trial

Apologies for murdering the Welsh language.  It should have read ...'' Rygbi:  Cymru v Lloegr''.  It's one hour of highlights.  Better than nothing I suppose. Depends on the action.

It?s a shame England haven?t had any time to train together.

It was difficult to find a pub showing the game on Saturday and it will be worse for next few weeks as the Premiership Wendyball
will no doubt be shown at the same time.

Saying that if England can't even score a try against a poor, inexperienced Wales what's the point of watching?
