He's not a player who has fast service or an accurate pass.

Lol - he's a halfback.

I agree. It frustrates the fuck out of me - halfbacks who can't do their core roles.

A reason for that

So what do they do vs Fiji? Have to start Ratima surely.

[antipodean]

Thanks England for a competitive series and well done Borthwick on fixing the abortion you inherited. If they keep improving (and they've got some very good talent in that team) they'll be a real threat in 27.

I’m a Smith fan after that, he was excellent on attack

Might even be forced to depending on Christie's HIA

@chimoaus I'd like to see them start Ratima, McKenzie, and Beauden Barrett.

We are so loose, when Perofeta ran from his line when he had plenty of time to kick I think he showed what the game plan was.

This is one of the most idiotic comments I have seen on this forum and that is in along history of idiotic comments.

Perofeta clearly screwed up, put himself under pressure and used his footwork to get out of it. It had nothing to do with the game plan, it was all skill execution and pressure. Plan A would have been to kick it.

Well played NZ

As in the first test it was there for England but when it mattered they didn't capitalise on territory or possession.

This is on the mark, England know how how to punish and bully, but they don't fully know how to use their weapons consistently and creatively-yet. They could get even better.

Adjust to playing in 25 degree heat.

[Mattasaurus]

Very Razorish.. finding a way to win.
Not bad for 3 weeks together really.
They will only get better.

Think a lot of people not giving enough England credit.... Their defensive pressure was immense.

[BerniesCorner]

Still can't believe we won

[fcc]

@Tim

Barrett at 10, controlled the game in the 2nd half

[sparky]

@Mattasaurus The big work on for England will be the scrum. They won't enjoy being schooled there.

[chimoaus]

How shit was our lineout. Kind of embarrassing really.

[sparky]

The ABs play England at their place in November. No doubt they will already be planning revenge.

Has their been a slower pair of wingers ever for the all blacks, pretty sure will jordan is going to walk straight into the side once fit.
