RWC: England v New Zealand (SF1)

Get TJP out there too, Smith doing nothing

[canefan]

England playing great and we aren't handling the pressure right now

[Duluth]

@Tim Yup, I think that’s where they’ve put him all year. Good job by Eddie

@Duluth Did the ABs move him out to centre on defense?

they moved him four out from the ruck and the poms had three dummy runners they skipped to pass to someone who ran directly at Mounga

The way to get to smithS game is beat the forwards ,

That’s what they have done

[Steven Harris]

@canefan very true...we are the ones now chasing the game..

[BerniesCorner]

Disagree about Smith. Him and Goodhue have kept them in the game

[Mokey]

@taniwharugby Except bloody box kicks.

[sparky]

Think this could be SBW's great moment.

[taniwharugby]

Although the big miss was from 2nd or 3rd phase, so just a bad miss as opposed to structure.

Don't agree. Smith has been pretty good behind a pack getting smashed.

Was that Mounga with the missed tackle that led to first try?

Yep

Just talking to a friend at the game, rain getting a bit heavier..

Well we have a test match gentlemen, good luck in the 2nd 40 and just remember no family violence if we lose.

[taniwharugby]

@kiwiinmelb if our forwards turn up in the 2nd half then Smith will come good.

[Victor Meldrew]

Don't need wholesale changes at half-time. There were signs we were starting to get the edge at the breakdown - just need to focus and be controlled.

If England score in the 1st 10 mins we are fucked though. Could be a big loss.

I know we’re not playing well but I’m not ready for TJ yet....

Smith needs to be better though.

Did Moody or Laulala carry the ball once in that half? We need to start by getting some metres in close.
