@Duluth What a bs again. Mo'unga didn't lose us the 2019 RWC. We all know the problem was in the forwards.

Forgotten the poor tackling letting in a try already?

Just on the DM/BB axis. Have we seen that in a big test? I'm quite excited to see how it goes.
Well Mo'unga has already lost us one world cup, no need to make it two

But he wasn't the only dumb bastard in that semi....not by a long, long way.

Wow blaming Mo'unga for 2019 is such a stupid take I don't know what to say lol.
And I hate the Saders.
Our lack of physicality was the problem that day. We were boys against men.

And Eddie had some very set moves, the kick off to first try was pre planned, and so well executed - they must've practised that a lot
-
England ran straight at Mo'unga and made easy metre's and got points out of it. He was mentally broken and hid from first receiver for the rest of the game.
He still has the same problem now. When the game gets tough he doesn't take control he gives up the first receiver spot
A flat track bully

No. We were dumb, dumb, dumb. From the selection through to the final whistle.
That loss hurt more than 2007 - and I was there in Cardiff.

@Victor-Meldrew I won't say we weren't dumb, but if you cannot compete at the contact, you're no chance in a knock out game.

It's history now, but if we'd kept our head we'd have been able to win that game. Blew opportunities.

Well let’s hope our forwards turn up this week and next to give the useless prick a nice flat track eh?
Cos if we don’t make huge improvements in our accuracy and discipline, particularly at the breakdown, then Fozzie may as well pick me at 10

A first five that didn't want to touch the ball really didn't help
It's ok now. He's never done that in a pressure game since then

Rinse and repeat for the last 6-7 years.

the Ref worries me for this game Carley is prone to slow the game down with penalties and pedantic ones at that.
He will be a Ref the Italians will be happy with.
Set piece kick fest maybe the way the game is shaping up.@Chris said in RWC Week 4: All Blacks v Italy:

At least then we had the ref to blame rather than our own (lack of) dry powder

Yeah it is, as no doubt the QF onwards are going to be all grinds.
