To be fair, we don't deserve to win this given the player advantage we have had, ref quality aside.

Agreed. Playing with 14 for this long, England have been magnificent.

Their ruck work is quite superb.

Their cleaning is a level above. They're a better team (pack), if also a bit limited.

@KiwiMurph if someone is YCd for a head contact, it's pretty obvious what needs to happen

Radical idea... But have they heard of sacking the maul???

Basically impossible the way the mauls are being adjudicated

[canefan]

Holmes has to keep her grabbers in field

The mauls are adjudicated?

[KiwiMurph]

Stop kicking it out

[sparky]

If NZ lose this it is because of the weak scrum/maul.

[taniwharugby]

@Nepia for the defending team

Someone tell Demant that you don’t have to throw the bullet pass every time.

You reckon?

Two offside England players interfered at that last maul and the ref did nothing. It's quite clearly a lottery so the sensible thing to do is not tempt fate.

[Damo]

This is ironic, but I wish we would stop kicking it away. Keep it in hand

[gt12]

That wasn't straight

[taniwharugby]

@gt12 if we lose its cos England are a bloody good team, playing 60odd with 14 too

[Kirwan]

Haha should not of delayed

Our defense of their maul has been comically bad.

[Nepia]

England's fluffing has cost them the ball.

[taniwharugby]

Wow, TMO intervention for the good...

[sparky]

Hold on the ball and try to run around them in the last ten.
