England vs Springboks
-
I don’t know what Eddie has been smoking. Freeman, the only back with pace is off for Nowell who has deceptive pace - he’s slower than he looks. Take off one big lump (Cole’s) and replace him with a bugger lump(Ribbans) when we’ve been slow and second best around the park and at the breakdown. Then Curry gets yellow and we have no flankers at all, cos he’s only picked one in the 23. Meanwhile Billy V continues his charmed life despite making fuck all metres.
We’re going to get reamed.

The irony of Farrel bitching to Ref that the boks are taking too long with everything...
England scrum under the pump
-
Finally Billy gets subbed. The walk to the touch line was as quick as he’s been all game.
-
Another committee meeting. This is farking killing our game.

That's red every day. BUT they have gone back way to far. Like 3 minutes
-
@Jailbreak7 It should've been reviewed so that when the game stopped a decision was already made essentially.

Lol how dumb is this English team. Trailing by 21 and are slowing the game down. Going for the lineout on 3 occasions against a good maul defence was moronic.
And Farrell takes about a minute to kick the conversion.

These water breaks just add another entry on the blight on the game list
-
@Mattasaurus It's coming in the winter and there should not be water breaks. Whose brainchild was this?
-
England beaten with their own game plan.
They'll be smarting from the towelling in the scrums in particular.
Boks building nicely into 2023
-
Dont write England off for WC year. They are a lumbering beast yes, and that was a beastly performance sure - but they will learn from that and be better next year.

What I found interesting through the week , putting aside all nz loyalties ( we have our own issues too )
England in most areas such as their fan base were claiming last week as a moral victory when they were beaten up for most parts of the game , the late tries imo saved a bit of face and camouflaged how average they mostly were .

Yeah. Water breaks? In London on a late Autumn Day?
