    Breakdown was the downfall. AB's couldn't handle rush defence. We played trash. England just played so well. Clinical as fuck. AB's didn't deserve shit.

      @Billy-Tell He's so much better than Bridge. When has that clown beaten a defender with pace in this tournament?

      Bridge just gets to the tackle fast, no evasion at all. Good at tacking high balls, and chasing kicks. Nothing else.

      He shouldn't be an AB. Anyway goodbye to Hanson and hopefully Foster and all the other coaches and selectors involved. NZ have wonderful players. we just need to find another competent head coaches (like Henry) who can combine the best players around the country (rather than mainly relying on just one team) .

            I keep cycling through the first three stages of grief - shock, anger, despair...too soon to move on to acceptance just yet. But the sun will come up tomorrow, I will be wearing my AB's shirt on my morning stroll with the dog in my local Brisbane park...and once I manage to move to that fourth stage I will be barracking for the Saffa's tomorrow.

              Hats off to Eddie Jones.

              He has coached every single one of the England 23 to be better players than they were four years ago.

                      Yeah. It was the relief as much as anything.
                      Firstly we weren’t shit. Then we won.

                      Far from shit, England were awesome.

                      The danger is we treat that as our final.

                        Missed players like Mckenzie and Rieko today, capable of breaking lines
                        Also poor decisions from Hansen: not picking owen Franks, Ben smith not even in the 23 (why the fuck Jordie Barrett??), putting Barrett instead of Cane, and always picking Sonny Bill in the 23 (he had a great game against Namibia... that's it)

                                  @Entertainer15 disagree. We lost it in the forwards an with poor tactical kicking. Their forwards created go forward, won their lineouts and they were tactically miles ahead.

                                      @Entertainer15 disagree. We lost it in the forwards an with poor tactical kicking. Their forwards created go forward, won their lineouts and they were tactically miles ahead.

                                      This. Their props, Itoje and Underhill were monumental. Easy to point fingers at outside backs but, as always, small numbers won it.

                                        Breakdown was the downfall. AB's couldn't handle rush defence. We played trash. England just played so well. Clinical as fuck. AB's didn't deserve shit.

                                        Fuckin' John Mitchell. I should have ran him over when he went for his runs past my house. 😉
