I see Creevy has a “new” pronunciation
That would be Miles Harrison
Suspect it was Rupert Cox (world feed), he of Ardie SarVaya fame.
Creevy = Gravy apparently.

Argentina penalty. Kickable.
That’s where they lost the match
Should have gone for the catch and drive
Agree. 5 minutes left, down by 3, penalty 5m in, 22m out. Your previous maul made good yards.
Did someone have money on extra time being called?

Watch a condensed version, 5 minutes or so would do it. There were a few highlights in there.

Loved this;
I think it is illegal. The lifters need to lower the player to the ground.
That is potentially dangerous I would say.
Yep. Law 18.29.c
18 Touch, quick throw and lineout
- Once the lineout has commenced, any player in the lineout may:
c. Lift or support a team-mate. Players who do so must lower that player to the ground safely as soon as the ball is won by either team. Sanction: Free-kick.

England looked tired. Hopefully, there is not too much left in the Bok legs, too.

England are frustrating to watch knowing how many talented players they have to choose from, but you have to tip your hat to Borthwick based on the previous 6N and Summer Warm Ups form
“I'm delighted for the players, who have worked so hard," he said.
"We won six games out of seven and lost one game by one point to the world champions, which shows the progress of the team."
He added: "I've already started looking forward to the Six Nations in my mind.”

What if they catch him and lower him safely?
Reading the law I'd say it would be legal.

England celebrate their Bronze Medals.
Good on them. It is still an achievement to come third.
Wasn't there a case a while back when a player threw away their bronze medal? I thought what a plonker.
Does that ring any bells.
