All Blacks vs England 2

The very poor pattern of out the back to a solo forward hitting it up might work in Super Rugby but it has no place in test rugby.
England keep it close to the ruck running off nine or forward to forward. You don’t see them passing well behind gainline for a league style hit up.

Razor will have to learn fast that top level tests are not Super Rugby. He got an early taste back when the Crusaders didn't fire a shot on the Lions tour match, but I'm not sure if he's learnt the lesson yet... Bledisloe will tell.
We are so loose, when Perofeta ran from his line when he had plenty of time to kick I think he showed what the game plan was.
That’s going to fail spectacularly eventually.
Out forwards are making hardly any metres as well, maybe Patrick a few times. Nothing around the ruck to suck in the defence.
Also took until BB coming on to move the team around the field like a real ten.

England getting better respect today ... bloody good team. Itoje was massive.
Thought their halfback was very good too. Smith superb with his organisation, kicking and variation.

Not sure why Ioane is being criticized. Defended well, and consistently got over the advantage line from shit ball.
He had a fucking good game considering what he was given. Couple of hard carries, some good defence as well.

We are going to get humbled in Africa if we play like that again.
If we take that lineout to Africa we'll get kicked to death.

Yeah I'm no Ioane fluffer, but he was fine. Problem was lineout sand dumb decisions, not Reiko. I definitely want to see proctor though, in SR a better centre, defence awesome and much better distribution than Ioane

And now for the fluff on field interview with the hard hitting and insightful Sky Sports panel....
Sir JK should go into political reporting he’s so hard hitting.

I was 100% sure we were going to lose that

Nice to see Joe Wheeler back after his racist rant. 😆

This isn't a great team Mike.
Far from it. -

Waiting for a "and if we score more points than them, we'll win" zinger

The loosies are a mess. Dalton fucking good tonight. Finau in this state is worthless. Problem is he's the only fucking tall loosie we picked so yeah, fuck the lineout I guess. They're not important anyway aye?
Out of this squad I would go for Vaa’i at 6
