    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.

        Smith easily MOM in that first half.

        Mostly, some questionable decisions. Itoje had great moments.

          Mark Telea never takes the outside option. It’s an issue.

            The irony is Razor's Crusaders used to pick on Telea under high ball a few years back

              1 try saving tackle and 2 try assists, he is the reason England are ahead at the break.

                Codie Taylor having a shocker, throwing piss poor and that penalty he gave away on the half time buzzer had me blowing a gasket at the TV.

                Get Aumua on from the start of the 2nd half!

                Want to see Beauden on early as well.

                    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
