RWC Week 5: England v Samoa
-
Sadly predictable:
England: Steward; Marchant, Tuilagi, Farrell (capt), May; Ford, Mitchell; Genge, George, Cole, Itoje, Chessum, Lawes, Curry, Earl.
Replacements: Dan, Marler, Sinckler, Martin, Vunipola, Care, Smith, Lawrence.
Our best 12 at 13. Our best 13 on the wing. Our best winger not even in the squad. All so that we can play our third best 10 out of position.
As for the bench - Vunipola? Why? Can only cover 8. Has zero impact. Is not a line out option. Just why?

Come on Samoa

At this point Borthwick is never going to pick a backline I like, just have to hope that they have done something in training that allows them to pass to each other. Think this will be a dour game and we’ll be lucky to get out of it with a win. We’re still shit

Ha Red seems to be Currys colour

Currently Tuilagi is the new messiah according to ITV comms 5-0 England

@Jailbreak7 at least they're pretty much right there.
Goriddge Farrord with the kick off
-
Luatua steadied the ship for Ah Wong to score. Good try. 8-7 England
-
Another freakish try to Ah Wong gathering in a pinpoint kick to dot down just before the dead ball line. Extras good. 8-14 Samoa

This is brilliant from Samoa, great rugby
