RWC Week 1: England v Argentina
-
An awful display from Argentina, allowing England to choke them out if the game like that.
Samoa will beat them.

Of course they score a try in 79th minute. lol
Something we couldn't bloody do

Well done England - you're still my least fav team.
Accurate loooong kicks and lots of truly contestable kicks from England and the got a large percentage of them back. (Fossie needs to take note of that - but wont)
Certainly a stoic performance.
13/7 penalty count
I look forward to the predictable Chikea spray in the interviews -
Well done England
Will go down in RWC history -
ABs aren't as smart as England Yikes

@Steve No one was red carded there, they were just down to 13 men for a period of time.

No against NZ. Dropped the knees into Keith Robinson.
Umagas reaction to the red was priceless.

Not many other first fives would mix it like he did back in the day.

England totally destroyed the much hyped Argentine scrum.
The Argentinian scrum hasn't been hyped for years.
Please tell ITV

How delicious would it be after that performance for England to lose to both Japan and Samoa?

An optimistic Welsh man

A much improved defensive shift by England, backed up by a George Ford masterclass in bossing a game. Mitchell made a difference for Ford IMO. Some pretty good individual performances but in truth I didn’t see too much that makes me very hopeful. I know we were a man down but I still can’t see any discernible attack. Was this a case of Ford and Lawes saying we’re fucked, so let’s play it pragmatic but give it a lash or do we have an actual game plan for going a man down in the first 6 minutes?
Still, a mighty effort but it’s only one game. Oh and the Argies were shit.
