Razor will have to learn fast that top level tests are not Super Rugby. He got an early taste back when the Crusaders didn't fire a shot on the Lions tour match, but I'm not sure if he's learnt the lesson yet... Bledisloe will tell.
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.
That’s going to fail spectacularly eventually.
Out forwards are making hardly any metres as well, maybe Patrick a few times. Nothing around the ruck to suck in the defence.
Also took until BB coming on to move the team around the field like a real ten.

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.
NZ had the far better bench and it counted
Great teams find a way to win

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.

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.

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

England are bloody good and you found a way twice
You should shit all over OZ and Argentina
And I wouldn't be surprised if you go 1-1 against SA
That to me is a great team

Still can't believe we won
@BerniesCorner Scrums win you tests.

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

How shit was our lineout. Kind of embarrassing really.
People will blame Taylor, but Tuipulotu and Barrett got dominated... need one or the other with a taller lock. Issue is, Lord can't stay fit and Holland is not yet available.
Darry worth a crack?

I reckon that Sotutu and Ioane are bloody good lineout options.
