    Wales does seem to produce some mercurial talent when it comes to rugby. James Hook, Gavin Henson, Shane Williams on view here.

    Why hasn't anyone uploaded the full game? I'd love to watch it again

  3. 11 years later france gave us 14 pts and probably wales are going to win the grandslam

  4. Alun Smith says:

    In spite of truthful comments the video is edited. The saxons , as they always do, run at the celts and the celts hold them, teach them and then let them go…we have done this for an eternity now…..times change. 2019 awaits you Celts, you others….are others…..

    Remember the BBC commentary well. Eddie Butler just being his usual neutral self. Brian Moore being honest and shouting that England were a load of crap in the second half. Da Iawn Cymru

  9. Lew Rodd says:

    A little known fact………. England has more rugby players than the rest of the six nations combined.

  10. The english are the worst losers ever.I love to see them find excuses,they are NEVER beaten ,they LOSE because they make errors.The other team is never better.

  11. R Hirshi says:

    This was 10 years ago wow.

  12. Ian Sutton says:

    If only the Welsh cared as much about winning tournaments as they do beating England, they would be world champs by now. Priorities and all that!

  13. Ben Account says:

    Not exactly a "record comeback" but still

  14. i was in a bar in northern tennerife at the time and at half time the bar was full of English men exept for myself (WELSH )and one Irishman,the English were going on about them winning by at least 50 points what a difference in the second half they were so very quiet,at the end of play if you had thrown a rabid dog in the bar you could not have cleared it faster me and the Irishman watched the irish game after and I celebrated with with a very very large tresorbos brandy definitely a day to remember

    Alix Popham , not a name you hear very often when people talk about Welsh rugby – but he was immense in that game.
