Many thanks for tuning in to Tribe here today. Hope to see you again soon. This is Elliott Johns signing off.
Wales will be bitterly disappointed with that result but gave a good account of themselves. They'll know that every game is a stepping stone towards something much further in the future given the vast inexperience and youth in their team. To push this England side all the way is a gallant effort. In the words of Andy Farrell though, a gallant effort isn't good enough at this level.
Two wins from two for England, two losses for Wales. England have wrapped up their biggest ever second half comeback in the Six Nations and it was Wales' second half discipline that really let them down. They lacked that cutting edge that they had found in the opening 40 and just let England play exactly the game that they wanted to. Big performance from Cunningham-South off the bench really added some impetus to the already physical England gain line.
80+2'
The clock is deep in the red now and England must win this lineout to seal the win. They do exactly that with a clean through to Coles at the front. Care takes it off the back of the maul and stabs it out to end the game.
80'
Lloyd finds Dyer with the crossfield kick and seems to have been taken down illegally by Ford in the air. Doleman doesn't think so though and we'll restart with a throw for England.
79'
Lloyd tries to chip over the top of the defence but Steward has read it and easily claims. Bursts through and kicks for himself to chase but Wainwright dives on it inside his own 22. Wales have to go the length of the field here.
78'
Tompkins held up in the tackle and the maul is formed. He wriggles his way free though and manages to get the ball back. This attack has plateaued now, something needs to come from somewhere.
77'
Wales keep it tight around the fringes and Hardy does well to escape a few tacklers and make a few metres. Inching forwards ever so slowly are Wales...
76'
Good attacking play from England as they work their way up into the 22. As I type that though, Tommy Reffell wins a holding on penalty at the breakdown. Wales holding on by the skin of their teeth.
