RWC: England v New Zealand (SF1)

@ACT-Crusader could have been worse ,I can’t help feel we missed a trick when Retallick was in open territory..he had 2 players outside him and ignored and ran the support players out of position...England have had so much go forward ball but have used great passing in behind the back..our team is not the only ones that are being out played ..I suspect our coaches are being totally outplayed...I was concerned about this game all day ..and it’s coming to fruition..

For all their territory asked possession dominance, England 'only' ten up. They look fucked and out of ideas. If we improve at the breakdown, we'll take this
Hope you're right

Half time. England 10-0 up and in dreamland.
Appalling ABs performance, could be a lot more.
We’re a bit panicky but it’s outstanding England more than poor NZ.
Agreed - but they're only 10 up and the pace of the game has slowed considerably. The game is still in the balance if we score any points first in the second half.
What we do need is more pace to and accuracy at the breakdown. That and a functioning lineout.

We’re fucked.
What a fucking tepid first half.
If our forwards don’t bar up and start going forward we might as well get on the plane now.Struggling to see any way back from here based on the performance in the first 40.
Unfortunately if we lose we’d have to stay another week and play the losers final.

@Steven-Harris That was a try we score 9 times out of ten. I was shouting pass so hard at the TV.

We have hardly contested a lineout when they’ve thrown the ball in, what’s the point of picking a tall lineout.
Codie Taylor and Nepo have been poor.
Think we need sbw and cane on sooner rather than later
I’m picking wholesale changes at half time.

They need clarity from the coaches - at the moment they're shell-shocked and hesitant.
