Razor's All Blacks will put a hundred on these England boys if they play with that low level of intensity in New Zealand.
Whilst I agree with most you have said, this is a bold statement for a team that has yet to play a game.

In response to a mate's suggestion that the England selection was interesting, I said this:-
"Interesting to a degree but the real issues are a) how Will Borthwick play the game and b) how many minutes will Smith, Fayi-Waboso and Cunningham-South get? My thoughts given the selection of Ford AND Daly is a) kick and chase and b) between 10 & 15 minutes between them"
All so appallingly predictable.

To be fair if Blackadder and Charlie Ngatai started that would be a given.

Sometimes it's best to look at the poster before deciding whether to respond to the post

England can and will get a lot better. I suspect to see a lot more intent and higher work rates from them against Wales next weekend. It should be a good game.
Italy had the chances to win this one, but couldn't hold on for their first defeat of England. I don't see them against another chance of a victory in this Six Nations.

A realistic view of England's performance
Four talking points after England's narrowest-ever win over Italy
Steve Borthwick sure has his particular way with words. Save for the well-taken Elliot Daly try that saw the ball flash through numerous hands from one side of the Stadio Olimpico to the other, England were dull as dishwater trying to get across the gain line on Saturday.
