Could well be, but I think there’s an element of flat track bully about the current England squad. Could well blow this one out, then implode v Samoa.

literally no idea. We'll win because if necessary we'll just maul the ball over from 5m lineouts from kicks to touch from penalties won at scrum time.
Whether we can pass a ball along the backline is still very much up for debate. If we could improve our timing of moves and get the forwards out of the passing lanes then we might score a few points.

The players are trying to prove you wrong.

What an excellent raking kick from Chile from the 22...if only we could do that....

England look like they are sealing off at every ruck

Monye needs to calm down a little. Yeah Ford is a good player mate, but all he's done is throw a pass against a dog tired defence from the worst team at the RWC.
Are you saying they’re worse than Namibia ? Crikey

It was Jaco Peyper. Every ruck is a lottery.
Chile probably could feel hard done by at a couple of rucks, certainly.

I have a lot of admiration for Chile - they've played some nice footy but their ranking outside the top 20 is starting to show.
Poor bastards have played pretty much their 1st XV through two matches in the heat, and a third over the course of 14 days. They have to face a rested Argentina on a 6 day turnaround.
Chile's pool match turnarounds were 6 days, 7 days, and 7 days.
Argentina get 13 days, 8 days, and 9 days.Not exactly fair.
