OPINION: WALES PRODUCED ONE OF THE MOST STUNNING COMEBACKS IN WORLD CUP HISTORY, BEATING HOST ENGLAND 28-25 AT TWICKENHAM ON SATURDAY.

Flyhalf Dan Biggar may not have been flawless, but he was as close to a perfect 10 as you could get.

Biggar produced a 23-point haul - a record for a Welshman against England - including a 49-metre match-winning.

Jan de Koning rates the Welsh players!

15 Liam Williams:
Showed he too is a class act, making plenty of metres and a flawless defensive effort. Wales must hope his injury is not serious.
8/10

14 George North:
He may be a threat with ball in hand, but he turned a few balls and his workrate was not that great either.
6/10

13 Scott Williams:
Made a couple of decent breaks that produced plenty of metres, while his defence was also flawless.
7/10

12 Jamie Roberts:
Won a crucial penalty turnover at a ruck in the first half and also produced a neat grubber in the second half. Was well marked when he had ball in hand.
6/10

11 Hallam Amos:
Big defensive game, but didn't see too much of the ball.
6/10

10 Dan Biggar:
If it wasn't for a couple of lost turnovers he may well have had the perfect game. Some great cover defending to go with that deadly accurate boot.
9/10

9 Gareth Davies:
His service was crisp, made plenty of metres and scored the try that turned the match on its head.
8/10

8 Taulupe Faletau:
Was a monster with the ball in hand and made all his tackles.
7/10

7 Sam Warburton (captain):
Was penalised once and conceded a turnover, but otherwise outplayed England counterpart Chris Robshaw.
7/10

6 Dan Lydiate:
Made a heap of tackles, but not as effective elsewhere as his captain.
6/10

5  Alun Wyn Jones:
Was a hugely influential figure in the collision areas, to go with his line-out and restart skills.
8/10

4 Bradley Davies:
Lots of carries that produced metres, worked hard at the breakdown certainly earned his salary.
7/10

3 Tomas Francis:
Struggled in the scrums and the rest of his game wasn't much better.
4/10

2 Scott Baldwin:
His line-out throwing was not as accurate as it should be and his workrate was poor.
4/10

1 Gethin Jenkins:
Got penalised in the first two scrums of the match and was under pressure throughout his stay on the field.
3/10

Replacements:

16 Ken Owens (on for Baldwin, 49th min):
Did not do any better than the man he replaced.
4/10

17 Aaron Jarvis:
Not used.

18 Samson Lee (on for Francis, 49th min):
Did the basics well enough, but nothing spectacular.
5/10

19 Luke Charteris (on for Davies, 70th min):
Not enough time to be rated.

20 Justin Tipuric (on for Lydiate, 70th min):
Not enough time to be rated.

21 Lloyd Williams (on for Amos, 67th min):
Not enough time to be rated.

22 Rhys Priestland (on for Liam Williams, 67th min):
Not enough time to be rated.

23 Alex Cuthbert (on for Scott Williams, 63rd min):
Was very quiet, but did the basics well.
6/10

 If any of you missed this game you should watch it. A real gutsy performance that resulted in a well deserved win.

 Wales had so many injuries they playen men out of position .Was very ,very happy to see all the Hooray Henries and Henriettas shut their incessant mangling of the poor bloody slave lament they have appropriated .Well done Wales ,it could be very embarrassing for England but good for them how they are the ONLY team to not have a mid=week game .One would think bean-sh!t-fer-brains would have something to say about this obvious bias in Englands favour.
