England vs All Blacks

[ShadowTrooper]

Reckon this has got to bea cue for Shag to re-visit our midfield - ALB gotta be there plus may be time to look at Laumape as well.
Fuck Akira and Laumape would have ripped it up today

[Steven Harris]

Take the bloody 3

[Chris]

Here we go take the 3 now

[booboo]

Looking for 3 this time ...

[Damo]

15-10. I will take that.

Both NZ playing well but also I think England seem to be losing their groove.

I have to listen to the pommie commenters
Making me sick

[No Quarter]

What a run from Goodhue to get us into their 22 again.

England defense is pretty good but we're finding space when we hold the ball long enough.

Game on

[akan004]

I think we have to start employing a rush defence as opposed to our semi passive shit.

[ShadowTrooper]

@chris It's much better with the mute button.

[Mokey]

Halftime 15-10. Hell yes will take that considering we played dogshit rugby for 35 mins.

[sparky]

Itoje cynically killing play there. Yellow Card?

[kiwiinmelb]

I’d be looking at getting Richie out there ,

Think his taking the ball to the line will be good here ,

Oh yes, that was beautiful. 3 Minutes of dominance and going into the half 10-15 is alright, considering England played better for the other 37 minutes

[Rembrandt]

Great comeback, a sign of England's fitness?

[ShadowTrooper]

@kiwiinmelb Hell yeah, a certain Richie McCaw be great.

[booboo]

Phew. Thought BB pushed that.

Wasn't the worst 40 minutes we've played. But by crikey is was a contender for worst 35 minutes.

15-10

Much happier than I was 5 mins ago

[sparky]

15-10. England a deserved lead

Terrible 30 minutes by the All Blacks. Then things got better when SBW left the field......

[rotated]

That scrum call by Read was masterful IMO - not just because we scored. 15-0 or 15-3 it makes little difference to either teams psyche at half time PLUS we would have restarted in our own half with three minutes left, enough to bleed more points. Plus sends a good message to the ref about potential scrum shenanigans in the second half as the field chops up and the subs come on.

The old adage of going with the option the opposition don't want you to take was spot on there.

[Hooroo]

Why the fuck would you do that when Dmac is easily the best back out there. Just fuck off BB into the stands
