I couldn't see a thread so I thought I would start one.
As a Welsh fan I'm not exactly confident going into the games, I think we could get hammered, but perhaps we could try out a few of the young ones. I would like to see Matthew Morgan at 10, never going to happen, and maybe Jordan Williams getting a start over Cuthbert.
As for England, absolute joke that they haven't got their full strength team going into the first game. I reckon they could preform well but if they take an absolute beating in the first game it may be hard to come back from.

Wales play today not sure i am going to watch it as E3 is on. I may watch it if i get bored of E3 live stream. Be interesting to see James Hook on fly half.

I think I may skip the gym to watch it, wished that Matthew Morgan played at 10 to be honest. I think that he should be the future for Wales, but we know that Gatland doesn't like his 10s to run.
 
I really enjoyed the game and thought that England played well, but as ever the All Blacks came up trumps to take the win. I would be confident if I was England going into the last test to get a result but if the All Blacks start like they did in the second half I doubt anyone can cope with them. I also thought that the refereeing was fine.
 
South Africa have named their team and unsurprisingly it's exactly the same. I hope that Wales pick Davis at scrum half and Morgan and fall back (I would probably drop Cuthbert), I also can't see Adam Jones starting after last week. Even with the changes I think it's going to be more of the same and South Africa will win by 15 points. What's everyone's thoughts on 10 for England? With Farrell out I would go for Caprani and see what he can do.
 
Surprise, surprise, Gatland unwilling to change things again. While Shingler and Adam Jones have been dropped, I can't believe that Phillips has kept is place and was fully expecting Morgan to start. I doubt that we can even get close to South Africa, I reckon they will win by at least 15 points.
