It really will, an 18 yr old Scotch will be in such a good mood to see England lose at rugby. English rugby media is unbearable.
The whole game will be up on ITVplayer, if you're outside the UK you could try using a VPN?
Robbie Savage phones Matt Dawson's radio show after the match. 
Really tough match for both teams, so pleased we won though. It's always easy looking back in retrospect at decisions somebody else has made and judging them and if thing turn out differently everybody sees them as heroes. Having said that, I do really question of throwing to the front of the lineout in that position without to being a part of a training ground move, you just going to get a line of players pushing you over the side.
Jerome Garces still doesn't like the way that Gethin Jenkins plays rugby but I do understand his decisions and Wales would have surely known it was going to happen.
Still everything to play for with both sides, out of what we've seen so far of Australia, England and Wales in the cHampionship, there are no guarantees for any of them. Really not looking forward to what will be a very tough Fiji match, I think the only players we'll have left are Dan Bigger and...nope, just Dan Bigger. The match is on Thursday so they'll need to make a decision tonight about bringing in new players to the squad.

As much as I'd love to see that, France is also in Pool D. I fear France will be too tricksy for Scotland.
Always love to see England lose. Even if Ireland has to face and be slain by the All-Blacks in the Quarter-Finals, if England doesn't even get to that stage, it'll be a good tournament result.
Glad to help
Looking ahead, vital Scotland get a win today, preferably with a bonus point. I'd back us to beat one of South Africa and Samoa at the moment.

Hopes for Scotland - first get the win. Second - no injuries - particularly to Finn. Third - bonus point, hopefully by some lovely back play.

Got to uni just in time to watch the last 20 mins this morning, what a great game. Now for the love of justice I really hope Australia beats England and kicks them out of the group.
I have to admit it's an absolute farce that Scotland/Samoa will make it out of groups while one of Wales/Australia/England won't. Seriously terrible system.

That's basically what I'm hoping for as well. God I do not want Weir playing.

Shame it was Savage. It would have been kind of funny if anyone else did it.
Wales, Australia or England have no absolute right to progress. Scotland nearly beat France in the warm ups and comprehensively beat Japan which SA couldn't do. Its the same in the football WC this idea that all the big teams should go. Teams go through because they deserve to go through. Thats it. If anything the big teams get too much of an easy ride most of the time.

Great performance by Wales. Hung in there the whole time with all of those penalty kicks. And then of course the try.

It's too bad this is on PPV only in the US. I would have liked to watch it.
Dont worry...you wont get anything from the game.
Great how much of a mess we're making of their lineout. So nice to see some creativity in our backs too.
Hope that's nothing serious for Gilchrist

This could be interesting.
I the USA are long way from being world class but the sport does seem have been picking up over the past couple of years. Now that it's an Olympic sport could see a change in how it's perceived over there to a certain extent.
Always got the feeling from my American friends that it was half seen as s discipline sport, you get people to play it who were in trouble.

This is not good - USA playing well and we are making too many handling errors

I really hate the itv broadcasters describing USA as a tier 2 team. The US and others may not be a fantastic team, but the attitude that rugby is divided into tiers during the world up is so patronising.
