Now THAT'S how you bomb a certain try.

Perhaps they should go back to driving mauls 😉

Bonus points might be key in this pool. Can't see Argentina beating England but stranger things have happened.
Based on this performance, I can

You can't read too much into this game, I suppose, but England's handling has been utter shite

You know what, they really should. There's something 2011-ish about England's performance today - sloppy, petulant, churlish and entirely unconvincing against opposition they should beat easily. I still expect them to win this pool, but they might not do it completely unscathed. Similarly, if I was Aus or Wales, I would not be completely terrified of playing them in a QF.

Classic. English commentator summoning the ignorant ghost of yesteryear. Billy born in Tonga apparently.
Just said he was Tonga raised. I've no major issue as he's one of theirs but he was born in Sydney and raised in Wales.
No. It was the kick off, Vunipola caught it and he said it's caught by a player born in Tonga.

I think England will be pretty damn happy.
Kept the opposition to just the penalty, didn't even look like scoring a try.
No injuries.
Dry Powder.
Bonus point win.
Are you Eddie's speechwriter?

35-3 FT. Good effort from the Tongans, and also a good hitout for the English.

@Stargazer
Considering the opposition, no. They would have been aiming for a BP win so to not score a try in the first 25 is pretty poor.
