England v All Blacks

[stodders]

NZ were blowing hard at the end of that half. Pace has been very high. I’d be surprised if Barrett didn’t get some choice words from the forwards for those 2 missed kicks as they would have gained territory and a breather!

If it had been McKenzie who missed two penalty kicks for touch he would have been pulled.

Don't disagree but Barrett only missed one, Roigard fluffed the other.

And Roigard did a Jordan and didn’t find his free team mate on his outside

Didn’t Roigard fluff one?

Bit too early to panic guys. ALB still to come on and carve up

Honestly, it feels like England have weathered the storm and have the better strategy. I hope I'm wrong.

I thought you weren’t watching Sparky? Being a bad luck charm and all this year

BB is sadly still out there for the second half.

Carve up the refs pocket. Will it be a yellow or red is the only question.

England don’t have a better strategy. Their lineout is shit, their defence is narrow, they’re loosing at the contact area. Nothing about what England is doing is good. They’re being allowed to play to an incredibly limited game plan by the fact the ABs can’t take advantage of field position and constantly out in shit kicks

DMac will come on at 60. Pre-planned.

We'll still win, but it feels like it will be in spite of Razor

If Dmac walks about at half time, all is forgiven

[sparky]

@jimmyb All true. And yet they know how to exert pressure on the score line and expose our weaknesses.

[stodders]

Can nobody in NZ catch a high ball?

Yeah that's the depressing thing. England are fucking average

They are 5th in the world, no?

We've actually got this.. I'm worried about captaincy and leadership

I have to say, it’s quite therapeutic about collectively hating on one person
