Wales defence had hallmarks of mean Shaun Edwards era as benchmark set for Twickenham showdown with England

To paraphrase Alan Partridge, victory over Scotland will have Wales feeling that they "have... had and are... bounced... bouncing... back'.

While Wayne Pivac and Dan Biggar weren't left needing to 'borrow a pen' post-match like Norfolk's finest disc jockey to sort out their mixed tenses, they were more than aware that bouncing back once isn't enough.

It's a process that needs continuation.
