@ACT-Crusader plus the software they have access to enables them to watch every lineout if they choose, look for patterns, then watch every ruck, how they respond in what part of the field.
Watching games in thier entirety would be rare these days I expect.
I'd really hope that isn't the case. The game has ebb and flow and every contest and every individual action by an opponent takes part within a context that matters.
Agreed
And a line out in minute 5 is very different from a line out in minute 75

I watched the full 2019 semi final between these two teams for the first time. That was an incredible performance by England. Hoping for something similar this weekend. Cant wait
Fuck you bru!
Haha! Come on the poms!

Vaa'i was defensively poor at blindside. Both from a workrate point of view, positioning and accuracy. Also I dont think hes quick enough off the mark. That said I wouldn't be surprised if they went back to him
Some of that is likely owing to inexperience.

Even if Scooter is back to near full fitness, why would you start him? Holland, Darry and Lord haven't let anyone down and seem eager for work
Bigger motor in scrum, solid cleaner, hard tackler. Need one of those in engine room against top teams.

I hope he's fit

Love it.
I haven’t cheered for the Boks ever. Even during the time when my dislike for Aussie and the smug Aussie fans was at its peak (99-04), I would want them to win 3-0 against the Boks. I’ll even call on that 1/64th Irish heritage in 2 weeks…..
England were superb that night and they did have a core group of quality players that were capable of pulling one out of the bag.

And Eddie Jones outsmarted us that night

@ACT-Crusader He said he'd seen clips not the whole match. But it was obvious from his comments that he's very aware of England's recent pattern and style.
fair play, that's more than i am.

In the 19 WC win… it’s hard when the boks have won so many, I know
Well I ran into that one headlong...

CLW, Josh Beehre and Caleb Tangitau added to the squad as training cover.
Finau and Jacobsen are heading home

@W32 said in England Vs All Blacks:
What was so impressive was the way they just refused to lose.
Helped by the ABs being determined to lose from team selection to the final whistle.

It was a pretty meek surrender wasnt it?

I disagree. We were so fucking clueless the bloke running the West Looe Junior XV would have outsmarted us that night.

Still. Boo. I'm a fanboi. Would like to see him get a few tests in a row.
But given unavailability I'm on the Parker bandwagon (still think Finau has more potential).
