Nothing wrong with PSDT pilfer

Except that a ruck had formed by the time he got his hands on the ball.

Diving in off your feet does not constitute a ruck

It does in Europe.

SH ref

Brace is Irish

Half Welsh too.

He turned his back on us

Blood is thicker than water.

[sparky]

Arendse scores. More poor English defence.

[Victor Meldrew]

That was too easy.

[junior]

Is it just me, or are the English wingers not very fast...?

[sparky]

They are looking at the last pass. The crowd are trying to get it ruled out.

[sparky]

No try. A bit of a hometown decision if you ask me.

[akan004]

Forward pass.

What's scary about this Bok team is that they can win matches with their amazing backs too. Never used to the case.

Forward out the hands unfortunately - could and should have thrown it flat out of the hands and would have ended up in the same place,

Nevertheless, England barely hanging on.

@akan004 and it’s also weird that England look good on attack but are now absolute pants on defence

[akan004]

Final pass looked forward.

[junior]

England would be doing a lot better with a halfback who could pass.

[akan004]

So dumb Itoje. You had the advantage ffs.

[junior]

OK, so they changed the rules at halftime and the new "access" law is now in place.

[akan004]

Why would Itoje try to contest the ruck after the English knock on when it's just going to come back to a Bok scrum, and the Boks can now scrum for a penalty.

[MajorPom]

I’ve moved my position on itoje.

From over rated, to shit. He’s been awful. Rag dolled and ineffective.

[kiwiinmelb]

Is the timing of the AB v fogs kick off when this game finishes ?

It’s on a different channel here in aus and coverage starts in a few minutes .

He had to come on after 20 mins. Must be nearly cooked ….

[sparky]

England leading by a point with just over twenty minutes to go.

A loud mouth with long arms that means he occasionally wins opposition pinouts and ruck ball.

Lots of white guilt in his general rating as a player.
