Lads if THIS England team takes NZ's record...

That was the most amusing half of rugby ever.

Crucial

Hartley's the captain though, it's his job.

Agree that it is horribly embarrassing and it will probably also lead to a quick WR law change

Bones

@Crucial yup but that's what's even worse, Haskell is babbling on being thick as fuck at every breakdown and he's not even captain.

Agree, for Haskell, as a loose forward to not know the laws at the breakdown is appalling.

Crucial

Man I wish they had the camera in the sheds at halftime.

What's the bet England just run one off behemoths at the Italian defence phase after phase for the rest of the game?

Bones

@Crucial that and it's tailor made for Ford to drop in the pocket and feed wide, flat ball to the outside backs, the space would be immense.

Bones

Anyway I'd expect England to romp it home in the second half, Gori a big loss for Italy he was playing fantastic.

Crucial

Both wrong. Looks like it will be kicks to the corners and rumble over.

Derm McCrum

Time to turn on the style from England. Now the avalanche starts....

Crucial

Penalty England, quick tap, try in the corner.

Level with kick to come

Not sure I'd call that style

Crucial

0-4 for Farrell.

10-10

Crucial

That was better.

England score again, this time it was quite good.

Needed Eddie to pulls the strings at half time as expected

EDIT: Farrell gets one 17-10 England

Crucial

Italy forgetting how to tackle

Derm McCrum

Italy went down to 14/1 to win the game at half-time, they're now out to 80/1.

Edit - make that 100/1...

Crucial

Itoje doesn't know the laws either. Picks the ball up while lying in the ruck

Crucial

17-15 at the 3/4 mark!

Kick to come

Crucial

Ford showed his 'great' defence on that try

Kick sliced. 17-15 England.

Derm McCrum

Did Eddie Jones really say last week that England plan to put a cricket score on Italy?

No, he just invited Alistair Cook to training
