    What I love about the English defence is they are racing up and chopping the legs. Our big guys are standing waiting for the ball (not running on to it) and by the time they catch it, there's a white jersey hitting their legs.
    And guys on the ground give turnover opportunities.

    I’m surprised we havent tried offloads, quite a few reasonable opportunities and its not like we are protecting the ball anyway

      We should have someone on the bench fast enough to replace a winger.

              We selected 4 specialist wings and only pick the same 2 in the 23....

                Akira overlooked for Finau hasn't been a convincing decision given the last 100 or so minutes...

                      Fix the lineouts and exits and it’s a different game. We have been very good at the breakdown defence, Scrum is excellent.

                        Marcus Smith?

                        Reckon he's keeping us in it

                        Sure the two kicks for tries but otherwise less than ordinary

                            Immediate must fixes for Robertson, are lineout and exit plays.

                            Both are as bad as it gets at the moment

                              I think public confidence might need it.

                              Not much fucking surf-god Jesus coaching so far.

                                      Yep two pinpoint kicks for two tries and stopping a certain try. Keeping England in NZ half with kicking. Not sure you want much more from your 10.

                                        @mariner4life said in All Blacks vs England 2:

                                        The guy who would help is Jerry Collins. Jerry ran on to the ball. You're not rushing the guy whonis already moving

                                        Our carry game is fucking terrible.

                                        Guys are just standing there. I don’t think any of them understand what they are trying to do.

                                          England dominating territory 62% to 38%. Their kicking game is so much better than the ABs.
