    Well England were superb and the All Blacks sucked. The second fact not unrelated to the first fact.

      Too many cute selections, cane not being there was a massive mistake. We didn’t play our best ten at ten, and Richies poor defence was ruthlessly exposed. All the things people have been worried about all year in evidence tonight.

      Don’t mind losing to a better team, doesn’t mean we had to make it so easy for them.

        On TV it showed AB forward pack heavier than England. Didnt look like it

        BBBRs love handles were most of it

          Well down to England. easily the better team

          . Other who were not great include Taylor and Goodhue. Taylor was surprising out of sorts and Goodhue doesn't look fully fit still

          Have to disagree. Goodhue was easily our best player.

            Just tried to get onto the Stuff website and received an error message ‘something bad has happened, please try again later’.

            How ironic.

            Well played England. We were humped. Not looking forward to life in London this week ...

              Comon Wales! My families colours have changed from black to red tonight (Welsh ancestors).

              If the boys can get up against SA my God they've got every chance of a first meeting with Bill. England were absolutely huge tonight, you could say they played their final a week early...

                            Comiserations to all you kiwis, your team let you down, but in fairness they never gave up. But that performance from England would have beaten anyone. Relentless.

                            England were fantastic. Dominated the game. Good luck next week.

                                The funny thing is we would have still been in it if we had relaxed and concentrated, eliminated mistakes.

                                      @Kirwan Starting at fullback. Would not have been a world beater, but would have been tidy and provided a useful calm voice.

                                      I wanted him at 15 and Barrett at 10.
